Welcome to the Chinese Traditional Wushu and Health Academy (CTWHA) website. The Chinese Traditional Wushu and Health Academy is based in Canberra, Australia, and is dedicated to teaching traditional Chinese martial arts and culture. Chinese Wushu [lit. Martial Arts] is often known as 'kung fu' in the West, and has become more popular with the spread of eastern cinema. Traditional Chinese Wushu has a history that spans several thousand years, and has been influenced by Confucian, Daoist and Buddhist philosophies. Because of this, Wushu is not only an effective martial art; it also covers many useful methods for physical, mental and spiritual cultivation.

ANNOUNCEMENTS


 Website Updates

We are currently shifting over to a new content management system and bringing the gallery online. As a result of this you will probably notice that all the news posts dates have been changed to todays date, and the formatting is slightly different. Furthermore, over the next few days as we bring it all live, there may be some areas that look unfinished. Rest assured they will be tidied up very shortly. If you do, however, run into any issues please email webmaster@wushu4health.com.

 Forum Change

Due to some technical issues with phpBB, we've had to change the forum over to SMF. This means that anyone who has already registered will need to reregister. I took a couple of the posts across but feel free to recreate any that I missed.
