23rd Feb News & Updates

You can find out how to rent our school out for your own classes, workshops or groups. Our new Qigong classes are due to commence at the beginning of next month. We also have an exciting seminar workshop to coincide with our scheduled pre-testing at the beginning of March. This is available to Yee’s students and non-students to attend.

Spring Festival/Chinese New Year Video

One of our students has created a fantastic video from footage of our performance at this years celebration in Inverness for Chinese New Year. We welcomed in the Year of the Rat at the end of January with a large lion & dragon dance display across the city centre. This was the result of three Yee’s schools from across the North East, collaborating together for one big celebration. You can see the video below and subscribe to our channel for more:

Hung Ga Fighting System for Combat Sports

On the 7th of March we have scheduled pre-tests for our students. These help our students prepare for the rigorous grading procedure which we are quite proud of at Yee’s Hung Ga. We ensure that our students are fully capable for the level that they are testing. Simply attending a grading does not guarantee a pass in the Yee’s Hung Ga system. A student must undergo a number of tests to pass each grading. This ensures that the art of Hung Ga is passed on fully for future generations. It also means that our students are under no disillusions about their strengths and capabilities. The pre-testing stage also helps to settle any anxious feelings that our students might have about the main grading.

On the same day at 1pm, Yee’s Inverness will host a seminar, suitable for anyone, students and non-students, to attend. This seminar will be delivered by Sifu Michael Rose, instructor from Yee’s Hung Ga Peterhead and Vice President of Yee’s Hung Ga Europe. The seminar is all about the Hung Ga fighting system and how it can be used for various combat sports including; MMA, Sanda & Kickboxing. Sifu Rose can also advise on correct stance, positioning, stretching, diet & nutrition in preparation for competing. Boxing and MMA gloves are both suitable for this workshop. A limited supply is available at the school but we recomend that you take your own.

If you’ve ever thought about competing or would like to know more about the training involved, this is your chance to gain the knowledge you need to take it to the next level. The seminar lasts for about 3 hours. It is suitable for both men and women, basically anyone interested in learning. For students of Yee’s Hung Ga it is priced at £30 and non-students £35. Tickets can be pre-booked, to avoid disappointment, here:

Our Spring Qigong Routine is due to be released in March. Springtime is traditionally a time of year for cleansing, renewal, creativity and inspiration. We have specifically developed this routine for the Spring months to help balance and encourage growth in these areas. We will also harmonise energy in the physical body to boost health and productivity. Our public Qigong classes will make a welcome return next week. Our syllabus has been developed to add extra sensitivity for our students.

Each exercise will have a video of it being performed. It will also contain brief instructions, an explanation of any theory and a list of the main benefits. A workshop will also be held a few weeks after the release of the routine. This will aid you in your practice and help to clarify any questions that might arise after practicing it for a short time. Any notes from the workshop and general feedback will then be compiled and sent out to everyone, which should aid further practice and development.

Inverness Chinese New Year Celebrations

Chinese New Year Celebrations in the Eastgate Centre, Inverness. January 25th 2020

The Spring Festival, known as Chinese New Year, is a big event in China and many parts of Asia. It is gaining more and more popularity in western countries too. It comes at a time of year when a flash of colour and excitement is much needed to bring us all out of the gloom of Winter. Our celebrations in Inverness definitely did just that. Our troupe is forged from the bond of three separate Yee’s Hung Ga schools that are spread across the North East of Scotland. All three schools descended upon Inverness on the 25th of January to celebrate the Year of the Rat. Our lions performed displays across the city centre. We also performed around 50 traditional ‘Choi Chang’ blessings at retail and business premises. It was a very tiring day for all the students who took part but a hugely successful and enjoyable experience for everyone. You can find out more in our article:

Spring Festival/ Chinese New Year 2020

Another event that is fast approaching is the Inverness Chinese New Year Celebrations. There are many practices on Chinese New Year that are surrounded by legends. According to one such legend, a monster called Nian (年) would come about every New Year’s Eve and terrorise everyone. People would hide away in their homes from the creature. The legend tells of one boy who was brave enough to fight off Nian using firecrackers. The next day, people celebrated their survival by setting off even more firecrackers. That practice has become, forevermore, a crucial part of the Spring Festival.

In modern times we use firecrackers to make a lot of noise for celebrating and to welcome in the new year. People stay up on Chinese New Year’s Eve and set off firecrackers at midnight. In the morning, firecrackers are used again to welcome the new year and good luck. The most amount of fireworks are set off at this time, more than any other time of the year, anywhere in the world. Due to safety reasons and concerns for air pollution, many Chinese cities have banned fireworks. Over 500 cities also have restrictions in place too. Beijing banned fireworks for 13 years. The ban was lifted in 2006 due to public pressure. If you’re in China during this time, you’ll probably be able to hear and see the explosions for at least 3 nights (and it can go on for weeks).

While we might not have firecrackers with us, we will certainly make a lot of noise at the Inverness Chinese New Year Celebrations. Our lions and dragon will be performing demonstrations across the city. You can find out more information and keep up to date with times and locations on our Facebook event page below:

Chinese New Year Gala Show Aberdeen

Chinese New Year Gala Show Inverurie

Our Lion & Dragon Dance Team will also be performing at gala shows in Aberdeen and Inverurie. The Yee’s North of Scotland Lion & Dragon Dance Team consists of three Yee’s Hung Ga schools that are spread across the North of Scotland. The chief instructors from all three schools are originally kung fu brothers from the same Yee’s school in Aberdeen. This means that we all have the same Sifu, Bruce Clark. We all share the common bond of Hung Ga kung fu and we have all pledged to spread our art, in all its various forms, as best that we can. Lion dance performances play an important roll in spreading our art. We are always looking for keen students who are interested in what we do. You can contact the other two branches below:

Chinese New Year 2020

Inverness Chinese New Year Celebrations 2020 25th Jan

Although everywhere is winding down for the festive period and preparing for the holidays, YHGInverness are gearing up for one of the busiest times of year for us, the Spring Festival, also known as Chinese New Year.

The Spring Festival is not a public holiday in the UK, however more and more people are taking part in annual Spring Festival events that focus on many aspects of Chinese culture such as food, calligraphy, decorations, martial arts and parades.

The UK, as a whole, doesn’t have an exceptionally high percentage of Chinese or Asian people living here. Major cities such as London, Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester have a concentration of Chinese people living there. London’s Chinatown is especially large and quite old. Their Spring Festival celebrations are famous for being very large and colourful.

The Spring Festival is based on the Chinese lunar calendar. The holiday lasts for around 15 days in China and many other Asian countries. The Festival itself is celebrated worldwide in many other countries too, including the UK. On the eve of the Spring Festival, families get together and reunite for a traditional dinner. The last day of the Spring Festival is known as the Lantern Festival. The skies are filled with brightly coloured, paper lanterns.

The Inverness Spring Festival Celebrations coincide with YHGInverness’s 8th birthday. Other schools from Peterhead and Ellon will be joining us in the celebrations. We will be performing parades and displays in the Eastgate Centre, the Victorian Market, the High Street and at individual retailers and restaurants around Inverness City centre. You can keep up to date with times and places on our Facebook event page. Please feel free to like and share the event page. We will also be performing at events in Aberdeen and Inverurie. You can see all event pages here:

Classes

With a new year and the start of a new decade on the horizon, many people start to look at what they would like to achieve. Physical health and fitness is usually high up on the agenda. Mental wellbeing is often not as high on the list but it is becoming more of a priority. At Yee’s you can combine training both your mind and your body together. Take a look at our Horse Stance article to see just one method that we use which incorporates your mind, body and spirit. Our forthcoming Winter Qigong Routine is another excellent way to improve your overall health and mental wellbeing. Make sure you have subscribed to our email list to receive this information in your inbox!

Beginning classes at Yee’s is really easy. Take a look at our “How Do I Start?” Page. In short, just come along to a Monday or Tuesday evening class at 7pm, it is that simple. No money needed. Just a bottle of water and some comfortable clothes to exercise in. If you need some inspiration to help you take that first step, read our “Motivation, Hints & Tips” article. Nobody can make that first move for you but we’ve tried to make it as easy and painless as possible for when you do. Once you do it, you’ll wonder why you didn’t do it years ago when we first told you!

If you prefer a more personal touch, you can arrange for a 1-1 training session with Sifu Hepple. An hours session will cover the basic warm-up and stance training exercises. It includes a section of your first form and basic principles of our training methods. For this coming week we have full availability on Tuesday 17th Dec. There are also a few 1-1 tuition slots left in the evenings too. Use the timetable below to book an available slot. You can even pay for it all online, that way there’s no backing out. Just turn up at the right time and we’ll take it from there.

He is also featured on the cover along side his Sifu in “Kung Fu Tai Chi Magazine” (May/June Issue 2006).
There will be lots of photos from the day of the gradings and seminars. Look out for our future posts to find out how everyone got on at the gradings.

Autumn Qigong Routine

If you haven’t tried it already, we highly recommend that you try our Autumn Qigong Routine that we published last week. It is a gentle, low impact, form of exercise which has a huge impact on physical and mental health & wellbeing. It is easy to follow and shouldn’t take too long to complete. Best of all, it’s completely free and won’t cost you a single penny. You don’t have to subscribe or give away any personal details. There’s a description of the exercises, a video to follow along to and a detailed description of the main benefits and theory behind the exercises. The background knowledge and theory is a great way for interested beginners to find out more about qigong and its benefits. It should also be an interesting read for more advanced practitioners who are looking to further their studies and personal development with qigong.

If you’ve already tied out our routine, or perhaps you’ve practiced it every day, we would really love to hear your feedback. Have you noticed any benefits? Did you enjoy the experience? Did you adapt the routine? You can email us your thoughts or leave your feedback in the comments section of our posts or on the YouTube video.

Please note that due to gradings and seminars in Peterhead, there will be no public classes or private tuition on Tuesday 5th November.

Uniforms

We have new uniforms for kids. Please contact Sifu Hepple with your sizes. These will replace the black t-shirts for kids that are currently available on the website shop.

Our new uniform shirts are also available to purchase on the Fu-kit section of our website under the uniform menu. They can also be purchased, in the school, from Sifu Hepple.

Forthcoming seminars & Workshops

We will be releasing details of two practical seminar workshops taking place at Yee’s Hung Ga in Inverness. These will be open to the public as well as Yee’s students. They will be an exciting opportunity to learn the theory and practical application of the five elements. One workshop will be based on qigong and the other on kung fu applications.

If you enjoy this Qigong routine and would like to learn more, please let us know in the comments section below or send us an email. We would be delighted to create future posts similar to this. Make sure you also sign up to our email alerts below too. We have an exciting seminar/workshop, on the five elements, in the pipeline. If you like our Autumn Qigong Routine, and wish to develop your knowledge further, this will be a fantastic opportunity.

Classes

We also have private tuition classes available for qigong and kung fu. You can book a timeslot that suits you on our homepage, Facebook or Instagram pages. This week we have availability all day on Monday 28th and Tuesday 29th of October, as well as in the evenings on the other available days. Just check the calendar for specific times on certain days. Private tuition is a fantastic way to improve on your qigong & kung fu practice; whether it is learning new form, theory, meditation or a mix of everything.

Our evening classes run throughout the week so if you are looking for something to keep you occupied on the darker nights, lose weight for Christmas or just try something new, kung fu is an excellent choice. Not only will it keep you fit and healthy but you will also meet some great people, learn something interesting that could potentially save your life, or that of your loved ones. We also have kids classes on Mondays for ages 5-8 and on Thursdays ages 8-13.

Lion Dance

We even have a lion dance class on Tuesdays which is suitable for all ages. Our collective Northern schools (Inverness, Ellon & Peterhead) often collaborate together to perform all over Aberdeenshire, Moray and the Highlands. We have performed at weddings, festivals such as Belladrum, shop openings, galas, Highland games and Chinese new year celebrations. You can find out more about our collaborative events, or book us for your own event, on this seperate Facebook page: Yee’s North of Scotland Lion & Dragon Dance Team.

Uniforms

Our new uniform shirts are available to purchase on the Fu-kit section of our website under uniforms. They can also be purchased, in the school, from Sifu Hepple.

We have new kids uniforms that have also been ordered. These should hopefully arrive this week. Please contact Sifu Hepple with your sizes. These will replace the black t-shirts for kids that are currently available on the website shop.
