Combat Arts Intense Training

Combat Arts Intense Training differs from regular Hung Kuen or Choy lay Fut Kung Fu classes as follows: Instead of concentrating primarily on forms, basic exercises and application possibilities, we focus on the development of strength endurance and traditional hardening.

The aim of this training is to expand both physical and mental limits and to significantly accelerate the maturing process in Kung Fu. This training is aimed at dedicated practitioners who are prepared to push their own limits and take on even tougher challenges.

Dennis Spies first came into intensive contact with traditional Chinese martial arts at the age of five through his father, Jau Chi Hang Sifu Dominik Spies, and from then on actively and regularly took part in lessons. Early on, he took over the organisation and supervision of the children's lessons and was quickly introduced to the art of teaching. At the age of 16, Dennis increasingly led youth and adult classes and was the main teacher in the children's classes at the Fu Pau Kung Fu Schools in Germany. At the age of 19, he opened his first own Kung Fu school in Traunstein, where he taught children, teenagers and adults until 2025.

He has also been teaching at the International Lau Family Hung Kuen Kung Fu Academy in Salzburg since 2022. Dennis attended numerous seminars with Grandmaster Lau Kar Yung from Hong Kong and took part in various advanced training courses with Master Jau Chi Hang, where he also continued his training in the private sector and in internal courses. In 2024, he was appointed Di Si Hing Kung Fu teacher by Jau Chi Hang and has been authorised to wear the black belt ever since. He also achieved an impressive third place at the eighth Kung Fu World Championships in New York in 2024, making him one of the most experienced and successful Kung Fu teachers of his generation.
