We are much different from your average Wing Chun, Kung Fu and Kickboxing Schools

1. Our schedule
Our schedule is for busy families & lifestyles with overlapping classes for siblings to come at the same time and the ability to change your class days when your new hockey or soccer schedule comes out. We also offer private lessons, and make-up classes to help YOU discover your full potential.

2. Our life skills/mindset training program
We begin every children's & teen's class by discussing topics such as having a positive attitude. We elaborate on that topic and then how can we apply that at home, school and other activities like Kung Fu. We call the first part of our class "mindset training" because to be successful at whatever you endeavor at takes the proper mindset.

3. We have full-time professionals with age-specific programs
The Development stages for children are very different through the years that's why our programs are grouped 4-6 yrs., 7-11 yrs., 11-15 yrs. and adults & older teens. We provide continuous training and education for all of our team members.

4. Our extensive community involvement
Great Way Martial Arts is highly active in the community, working with Kids Sport Canada, Pacific Sport Okanagan, and Xplore Sports Camps. We also run a unique program through the Rotary Centre for the Arts for the local school districts and elementary schools in the area. Our mission is; "to joyfully inspire the mental and physical well-being of our community."

5. We have a very positive & safe family environment
Look, it's very common to feel intimidated and even scared to walk into a new fitness program, there is definitely a stigma attached. When you walk into our environment you will soon be wondering why you felt that way. We have been told for over 26 years that it's not like that at all. Our team of people, the students and families are all incredibly supportive, encouraging, and the environment is so very positive. We have a spacious, open & clean facility including over 7000 square feet of matted training floors, private change rooms & bathrooms and a lounge – you and/or your family will feel welcomed into a community of shared goals.

6. We teach Kung Fu and it originated and is practiced from a place of peace
Kung Fu is ancient and was born thousands of years ago and practiced for the "self", it was not created from conflict for the sole purpose of combat. The purpose, besides all of the physical and movement health benefits, is to connect our mind, body, and spirit in everything we think, say and do. It is no accident that we do not compete or enter tournaments. Our mission is simply to inspire others to be the very best versions of themselves. To do this we must make daily decisions, command ourselves towards what we want and then exercise our self-discipline and follow those commands with passion and purpose.
