Ling Dao Kung fu and Qi Gong Academy
Launceston 7250 TASKung Fu & Qi Gong Academy.
What do we do?
At Ling Dao Academy, we offer more than just martial arts — we guide students on a transformative journey of self-discovery and personal empowerment. Rooted in the classical Chinese principle of Chan Wu Yi – the synergy of martial arts, medicine, and the spiritual path – our academy nurtures strength of body, clarity of mind, and alignment of spirit.
“Ling Dao” means pathway to the soul, and that’s exactly what we teach — not just combat skills, but a lifelong pathway toward authenticity, purpose, and inner power.
🥋 Our Philosophy
Our martial arts curriculum is deeply rooted in Shaolin Temple traditions – a heritage spanning over 1500 years. Our training is grounded in classical forms, not modern commercialized patterns, offering rare and powerful knowledge passed down through generations of masters.
Through Kung Fu, Qi Gong, Meditation, and Philosophy, students experience a holistic system of growth designed to unlock potential, develop real-world skills, and lead to profound personal transformation.
We cultivate:
• Exceptional skill and self-discipline
• Inner calm and mental clarity
• Resilience, confidence, and compassion
• A deep connection to self and tradition
🧠 A Teacher Who Understands Learning
Our head instructor, Laoshi Leigh, brings a rare blend of expertise — as both a formally qualified educator and a seasoned martial artist with 20+ years of classroom teaching experience. His unique ability to inspire, manage, and connect with students makes classes engaging, meaningful, and transformative — especially for children and young people.
