AIMA’s Internal Kung-Fu System is a rare and unique style called “Wu Chi Chuan” (Limitless or Formless Fist) denoting No Specific Style and Every Style meaning Each Person’s Distinct Individual Style.
We also deliver a four Animal Style Kung-fu Kids program linked to the main program, just as all our other mini programs are, they too are based on the Internal principles. Read More…
The Wu Chi Chuan system simultaneously embodies both Self-Defence, Health & Fitness, and as an integral part of the system, to gain the health and fitness, it equally focuses on harmonising, integrating and unifying the body, mind and spirit through the cultivation and balance of the three treasures, those being the Jing (The essence of the body), Qi (Intrinsic Energy) and Shen (Spirit of Vitality).
Like a vehicle is used to reach its destination, our Self-defense practice, its martial art moves, techniques and skills are used as the vehicle and its destination, is to enable the harmony, cultivation and balance of the three treasures within the martial art moves, while enhancing one’s internal power (Jin) as its primary destination, “Internal Martial Power”.
Jin is a specific internal power and major component of the Internal martial art system, there are many other Jin’s and components we develop within the practice to complete a sound, efficient and effective martial art system for Self-Defense.
By now you may be seeing a pattern or trend in this information relating to a trilogy of things our system applies to, just one of the concepts that is used completing the philosophy and theory as a whole, this trilogy has its roots in the concept of Pa Kua, usually portrayed in the Pa Kua Trigrams.
Wu Chi Chuan is an Internal Kung-fu system that’s developed and evolves with each individual only through the four concepts of the Dao, such as, Wu Chi, Yin Yang, Pa Kua and Wu Hsing. These four concepts also relate to the four main Internal Kung fu systems I-Chuan, Tai Chi Chuan, Pa Kua Chang and Hsing-I Chuan.
These four main Internal systems predominantly use only one of the concepts as its main system driver to identify, structure and function its system, for example Tai Chi uses the concept of Yin Yang, as its function and structure of its system, however, if they are a good Tai Chi system they will utilise the other three concepts in theory and application accordingly.
Wu Chi Chuan not only uses the Wu Chi concept like the I-Chuan but also equally utilises the other three concepts to complete a sound, effective and efficient Internal system.
Due to the demand from students wanting to compete and test their skills, Sifu Aldo devised a Combat Sport mixed martial arts program to suit beginners and advanced students. Combat Sport Programs will enable the student to compete in any combat sports tournaments. However, you must understand that this training will need to be personalised to suit the sports combat competition rules and regulations. See Combat Sports….
Also, all Combat Sport programs will include our principles of the Internal system so that you can develop your own sound and unique martial art skills. New students can choose to only do combat sports training or do both Self-defence as well if they wish. The choice is yours, let us know what we can do for you.
Just call us to discuss your choice of training or any specific training outcomes you may want or need to improve your martial art skills. We are here to help and share our knowledge and experience with you!
PLEASE NOTE:
All Classes will be either closed door or private with a minimum of 1 on 1 and a maximum of a small group of 4 students. Please ask us how we can meet your needs and to clarify any details regarding classes.

Efficient | Effective | Empowering
All our Programs include our Internal training method’s, however, due to the depth of understanding required, our junior programs may only include the basic Internal training methods and would depend on the child’s age and maturity whether or not it would be included for their training. In this way the internal foundations and principles required to achieve the ability and qualities of the Internal martial arts will be instilled and nurtured as the child’s maturity sets in.
The ability to be Efficient, Effective and Empowered will stem from our Internal training methods that help build the skills required for a sound martial artist. Our programs are packed with practical, effective, awesome moves and applications, that are energy efficient and empowering you with the confidence and ability to stand up for yourself and your loved ones in times of any confrontations or crisis. You will accumulate the knowledge and martial skills required to be a refined martial artist in a sound Internal system, while also enjoying yourself together making long life friends with likeminded people. We look forward to training with you!
