Hi All,


Could anyone recommend a good wushu class for 4.5yo near central or east area?

How is the quality of Wushu @ community centre?

Would love to hear from parents to share your experiences.

Thanks

Hi

U may wish to check out the classes at this centre, they have classes at Waterloo Street and other locations too : http://www.xinying-wushu.com/

Hi CMF,

Could you say why this centre's classes are good, want to get my boy to start wushu but he is a bit older, about 10, is it too late?

Hi jeestan

I like this centre as the class has fewer students, and they separate the younger kids from the older ones, hence there is more opportunity for older kids to progress faster, even though they may be beginners.

The coach also gives personalized attention when a child needs to catch up with the rest of the class. There is a \"structure\" in the lessons, and one will see progress rather quickly. Classes held in aircon room, with the toilet within it too, so to me considered a \"good\" environment. Although car parking is a problem at Waterloo Street area.

As I have tried another centre previously, I am just comparing my experience here with that.

I don't believe 10 years old is too late to start. Most important is the child's willingness to learn and persevere.

Hi CMF,


I went to their website and each class has minimum 15 students?? It’s quite a lot right? And the one at telok blangah has 25. :!:

Hi smurf

I believe that would be the max number? If 15/25 is minimum, that would be one too many! The class my DS attends at Waterloo Street has only 8 students.

There is. Elitewushu teaches at the RC next to catholic high. Wanted to sign ds1 for the course, but he is just a beginner and the other students are quite advanced. So they told me that I would have to travel to other branch for beginner class, or if I can get at least another 3 new students, then they will open a new class or get another coach to join in to teach.



So, anyone keen?

Hi Smurf, what is the age group for beginner class? I am thinking of getting my DSs with Wushu as well and I stay in Bishan.

Hi rejoice,


There is no age group limit, but of course not too young as in below 3? But they focus more on agility. I have PM u!

U can just buy a pair of plain sport long pants in bigger size so that legs can b stretched comfortably. Shld b able to find in mkt stalls, neighbourhood shops or Giant.
