And yet, hidden in a centuries-old vaulted cellar at <a href=\"https:\/\/maps.app.goo.gl\/sUZFWt9SYjGKkucE6\">Mirabellplatz<\/a>, a place where the centuries-old art of Chinese Hung Kuen Kung Fu has remained alive in its original form. Why? Because true culture knows no boundaries \u2013 and because tradition lives on where people give it space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our International Lau Family Hung Kuen Kung Fu Academy is not just a martial arts school. It is a vibrant place of cultural exchange, nestled in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the city of Salzburg. Between Mozart, the Festival Hall, and Baroque architecture, this special martial arts school has found its place\u2014not as a contradiction, but as an extension of the rich culture of this city. Because kung fu is also art. Philosophy. History. Human development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here we teach authentic Hung Kuen Kung Fu, passed down by the famous Lau family from Hong Kong \u2013 a direct line of masters whose knowledge has been passed down through five generations. Under the guidance of Sifu Dominik Spies and with regular seminars by Grand Master Lau Kar Yung himself, our school combines centuries-old martial arts tradition with Western teaching methods, deep respect, and modern accessibility. Here, Asian martial arts merge with European depth \u2013 not as a show, but as a living practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to Hung Kuen, we also teach Hung Sing Choy Lay Fut Kung Fu, a versatile, strategic style with powerful techniques, flowing movements, and impressive applicability in combat. Both styles can be trained individually or combined\u2014depending on whether you are looking for more structure or more dynamism. A free trial training session will help you find your way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But why Salzburg of all places? The answer is simple: because true mastery is not tied to one place. Our school brings the depth of Chinese martial arts to the heart of Europe\u2014not to present itself as exotic, but to facilitate cultural exchange. Here, East and West meet with open minds and mutual respect. Salzburg is a place of culture, depth, and tranquility\u2014the perfect environment for a martial art that goes far beyond punches and kicks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because kung fu is not a sport. Kung fu is a path. A path to greater clarity, strength, discipline, and mindfulness. Whether children, teenagers, or adults\u2014those who come to us are looking for more than just physical fitness. Our students learn to understand themselves better, overcome limitations, and grow within a strong community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our school offers space for anyone who wants to follow this path. With courses for all age groups, special training such as the \"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.laufamily-kungfu.com\/en\/combat-arts-intense-training\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"1642\">Combat Arts Intense Training<\/a>\" and events such as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.laufamily-kungfu.com\/en\/kung-fu-summer-days\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"1732\">Kung Fu Summer Days<\/a> we are constantly creating new approaches to the world of martial arts. At the same time, we maintain our connection to the source \u2013 with regular visits and seminars from Hong Kong that connect our students with the original power of the Lau family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you feel that you are looking for more than just a workout\u2014if you want to learn an art form that will help you grow physically, mentally, and as a person\u2014then our kung fu school in Salzburg is the perfect place for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Come by, get to know us, and find out why true kung fu has found its home right here.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wer an authentisches Kung Fu denkt, hat vermutlich zuerst Bilder aus Hong Kong oder alten Shaolin-Filmen im Kopf \u2013 nicht aber die barocke Altstadt Salzburgs.
