The history of Lau Gar Kung Fu

Lau Gar Kuen
Lau Gar Kuen translated means "Lau Family Fist".

Origins of Lau Gar
Lau Gar Kuen is derived from a form of boxing practiced at Kuei Ling Temple situated in Kong Sai (Guangxi) Province in west China. It was learned from a monk on retreat from that temple by Master Lau Sam Ngan, "Three Eyed Lau", a tiger hunter, whom we honour as founder of our style.

Master Yau introduced Lau Gar to the UK in 1961 and in 1973 set up the British Kung Fu Association.
