# Hoan Lung Quan - Sheffield Kung Fu School

Hoan Lung Quan is an approved member school of Shaolin Fists International, operating from The Fitness Club on Surrey Street in Sheffield city centre. Under the instruction of Sifu Peter Allsop, the school specialises in traditional Shaolin Kung Fu, specifically teaching Wuzuquan (Five Ancestors Fist) and other authentic Shaolin fighting systems rooted in classical Chinese martial arts heritage.

The school serves martial arts enthusiasts of all ages and experience levels who seek genuine, traditional kung fu training rather than modernised or diluted versions. Their student base ranges from complete beginners looking to develop martial skills and fitness, to experienced practitioners aiming to deepen their understanding of classical technique and philosophy.

What distinguishes Hoan Lung Quan is its direct lineage to Grandmaster Yap Leong through Sifu Peter Allsop, ensuring authentic instruction grounded in legitimate Shaolin tradition. Rather than focusing solely on sport competition, the school emphasises the preservation and transmission of classical Five Ancestors Fist methodology. Their involvement in cultural activities—including lion and dragon dance performances—demonstrates commitment to the broader Chinese martial arts heritage beyond fighting technique alone.

The school actively participates in the international Shaolin Fists network, providing students access to seminars, advanced courses, and direct support from master-level instructors. This connection to a global community of serious practitioners sets them apart from isolated local gyms offering casual kung fu classes.
