The Chinese Kung Fu Academy in Mudgeeraba, located in the Gold Coast, is a renowned sports club that has been offering training in Kung Fu and Tai Chi since its establishment in 1958. As the oldest Kung Fu school in Australia, the academy has grown over the years and now has branches throughout the country and beyond.
The academy is led by Sifu Henry Sue, a 9th Degree Grandmaster who began his martial arts journey at the age of 11. He trained under Master Nat Yuen, a 9th degree Gold Belt, and has accumulated over 56 years of experience in martial arts, dedicating over half a century to teaching. Sifu Sue's teaching style is “hands on,” personally leading classes five times a week.
One unique aspect of the academy is the incorporation of circular “yin and yang” principles of Tai Chi into Kung Fu. This fusion has resulted in the development of a pure fighting system called Henry Sue Circular Tong Long. This practical and unique fighting style focuses on devastating power and incredible speed.
