A MARTIAL arts club in Wythall is inviting potential students to try their hand at one of the rarest styles of Kung Fu.

Students will learn traditional martial arts, self-defence and historic weapon techniques, including Tai Chu sword and Nunchaku split staff.

Sifu Stuart Hay, who founded the club in 1997 and specialises in Shaolin Mok-Gar, said: "I’m proud to keep the tradition alive and pass on the skills and knowledge to the next generation.

"This year the club hits 21 years. Here's to the next 21."

Mok-Gar, which has roots going back more than 500 years to southern China.
