About
The Songshan Kung Fu Executive Academy is a renowned institution, founded by Si-Jo Dr John Souglides PhD, and established in 1990. Our academy is recognized nationally and internationally, with Si-Jo Dr John Souglides PhD being certified and qualified by three prestigious international universities to teach higher martial arts education and metaphysics - a first for South Africa.
At the Songshan Kung-Fu Executive Academy, we believe in promoting a disciplined environment that fosters unity and camaraderie among students. We believe that creating a culture of fear limits the ability of students to learn and grow, not only on a physical level but also on a mental, emotional, and spiritual level.
Our academy offers Kung Fu, Tai Chi, and self-defense classes, catering to both adults and kids in group classes or private one-on-one lessons. Our system has been designed to preserve and cultivate the true foundation of martial arts, which is wisdom, philosophy, spirituality, honor, respect, balance, and discipline. We focus not only on the physical arts but also on the internal aspects that go beyond physical limits into the mind and soul.
Master Cheyne, as the Head Instructor of the Edenvale branch, is a committed and dedicated student of Si-Jo, continuously training and exceeding his own boundaries to provide high-quality instruction to students.
The principles that we stand on at the Songshan Kung-Fu Executive Academy are values, morals, ethics, and integrity. These principles are the foundation of our academy and the teachings we impart to our students, creating a ripple effect that transcends beyond our academy and into the lives of our students.
