I would like to start by saying how awesome this place is. I joined up back in 2005 at the old location mainly for self-defense and to learn the art of Wing Chun Kung Fu. The Kung Fu classes are great to start your fitness journey, especially if you do not like the cardio side.I have had the opportunity to represent LMA in many competitions from state level to national level with the thanks to Sifu Bruce and all his great knowledge and guidance. Sifu Bruceβs skills and patience in teaching Kids to Adults is very professional, fun, and unique, making the most difficult technique look so easy once shown and explained.
This level of teaching has also been demonstrated by all his accredited instructors at the club that also show the same level of professionalism, patience, fun flair, and knowledge with adapting techniques for all levels in any class.
LMA initially only started as a Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu Club back in the early 90βs and has now become a center that offers Boxing & Sanda (Chinese Kickboxing) to the local community. With many state, national and international champions Do yourself a favor and trial them out and donβt rely on fake reviews.
This level of teaching has also been demonstrated by all his accredited instructors at the club that also show the same level of professionalism, patience, fun flair, and knowledge with adapting techniques for all levels in any class.

Highly Recommended. Fantastic Martial Arts studio to train.This is the place to be if you want to learn the ancient and highly effective Art of Wing Chun Kung Fu and Boxing / Kick Boxing. From the basic foundations to self defence, effective fighting techniques as well as associated weaponry in the higher levels. This art imparts self confidence and co-ordination. The strict protocols are also part of the system in developing Respect and Discipline. The highly accomplished instructors and advanced students are there to assist you on this journey in a positive and friendly atmosphere enriching self and transcending the teachings into your life for your own betterment. I personally travel from Far Nth QLD to LMA Dandenong under this system and Master Bruce Corles for my personal development. Thank You all at LMA.

Iβve been learning Wing Chun at Lifestyle Martial Arts since I was fifteen. Itβs been over a decade, and theyβve been nurturing me every step of the way. As a woman in Martial Arts, I canβt think of anywhere better to learn!

MATT T.
Martial Arts has greatly improved my self-confidence and is an extremely fun way to exercise; my general fitness has improved a lot from when I first started! It is a wonderful opportunity to meet new friends, and learn the art in a happy and relaxed environment.

Tony Grosso
I sent all three children to LMA, they loved it and now still have enormous respect for the club and the instructors. LMA is a great club and Master Bruce ( not a face book Master and graded by the great grand Master William Cheung ) is one of the best Instructors in Australia without a doubt

Mouhamed F
Hands down the best martial arts club for families and children in Melbourneβs South east.My experience with the staff has always been fantastic, and to see them with the children melts your heart. Parents really enjoy sending their kids here because of the benefit that LMA offers, and the confidence that it fosters in childrenβ¦plus the children have a great time.
Seriously, from gym, to boxing, to kung fu, I HIGHLY recommend these guys as centre of choice for the family. Iβm speaking from experience.
Thank me later π

Excellent school. My daughter has trained at Dandenong since 2009 & she has progressed steadily as a young martial artist. She’s almost 9 years old now, & has participated in several tournaments already, holding her own against boys around her age.
Sifu Bruce & Sifu Sarah are passionate in their instruction to all the kids. I think this is due to them being a married couple with their own kids training there too. I certainly believe this is why they’ve created a warm family atmosphere along with excellent martial arts instruction.
The instruction is Wing Chun based, with a direct lineage from William Cheung, the current Grandmaster. There is an emphasis on integrating the practical elements of other styles too, much like Jeet Kune Do. As a former martial artist, I can see they strive to teach what really works. It’s pervasive in the instructors & class, & you can tell by getting to know the gang. Top notch!

ADAM S.
I joined in 2004, because I had some free time. Now I am an instructor and passing on the skills that were taught to me.

Alex Urriola
