Kung Fu - my other side

Me and some of our students on a tournament 



Website about Kung Fu

Kung Fu is my own business.

We (my husband Andreas Garski and me) founded our kung fu school business in 1985 in Karlsruhe/Germany.

Since that time we are:

- teaching students in traditional hung kuen/hung gar (southern style Shaolin kung fu) during regular lessons and seminars in Germany, Czech Republic, Italy....

- organizing seminars with national and international Kung Fu Grandmasters

- organizing events and tournaments mainly in Germany

- organizing trips to Hong Kong and China for tournaments and training

- from 1995-1999 we published an own kung fu print magazine for German martial arts schools

- book author about the versatily of various kung fu styles

- freelance writer for a German martial arts print magazine and online kung fu magazine

- managing our own kung fu & lion dance show team with performances around the world, mainly in Germany and Hong Kong (but even in Singapore, Malaysia, USA, Italy, Swiss....)

My mental support and soul - my husband

My husband Andreas Garski and I are together now for ~ 25 years. We have three kids (22 yr, 16 yr, 11 yr). Our common interest in martial arts (traditional southern kung fu) brought us together. We both belongs to the pioneers in the kung fu scene in Germany and it was a very difficult way to become the position and status we now have, but at the same time a very good base and learning to reach the top. Our students are very successful on international tournaments.

Through our work and dedication we got in touch with a lot of interesting, nice and famous people around the world.

In the same way I was all the years supporting my husband on his way as Kung Fu Master, teacher and performer, he is now doing the same for me with my interest for Indian movies.
