History
Established in 1980.
Golden Tiger School of Kung Fu is one of the longest standing Martial Art schools in the Kitchener-Waterloo region. To this day, classes are taught by the founder and Si-Gung, Paul. Anyone that grew up in the KW area and is interested in Martial Arts knows the name, Golden Tiger.
The curriculum Golden Tiger uses today is the same curriculum used when Si-Gung opened the school 35 years ago in 1980. Si-Gung sees the details that make Hung Gar an art and pushes his students to do the same. Golden Tiger is one of the few truly traditional Martial Art Schools in the Region.
