Head Academy Jow Ga Kung Fu Centres
At the Head Academies we teach both form based kung fu and Sanshou (broken or random hand free fighting). We give our students instruction in the techniques and art of Jow Gar Kung Fu and also other martial arts so they can better understand the self defence options available to them. Also included in our grading curriculum (but not shown in the table below) are a huge range of kicks, strikes, footwork, joint locking and control,parries and blocks.
Check back soon for a brief video clip of each form!

Jow Gar forms are exceptional methods for training students to defend themselves using the techniques and sequences of the Traditional Jow Gar System.
At Head Academy Jow Gar our focus is on teaching students the application and use of every single technique contained within these forms.
“Without the martial application and correct instruction on body structure and positioning, Kung Fu forms become a pretty dance without substance or meaning.”
This may be pleasing to the eye to the uninitiated, but is of no value for self defence or in the development of a true martial artist.
Grading is an integral part of the development of our students Jow Gar skill. A grading is held each month allowing our students to progress as quickly as possible through the system, while keeping the very high standards expected of our students.
A grading fee of $80 is payable for each grading.
Private tuition in weapons, empty hand forms and San Shou fighting techniques are available from Chief Instructor Nathan Head and senior instructors.
For further information on other weapons and empty hand forms taught, please contact the school directly.
