THE
TEAM
JAN REMUS
My first contact with the Chinese Gong Fu was in 2005 and I was already 26 years old.
​
Late for this art, that is so versatile and in which so many different aspects have to be learned and mastered.
​
But this contact was so intense and touched me so deeply, that I gradually changed my whole life from this point on, to be able to devote more and more of my time to my training and learning.
Almost 15 years later and after spending years in differnt citys and countrys to study under the best teachers, after countless hours in the gym and many fights with others, but especially with me, I can still say I have not even regretted a single minute that I have ever invested in this dream!
