Introduction

What is SEP? SEP is a collaborative partnership between Singapore Sports Council (SSC) and the Ministry of Education (MOE). The SEP aims to advocate the importance of sports education, encourage sports participation in schools and increase sporting opportunities for the young. It also serves as an integrated and structured approach to link sports service providers with schools to ensure that innovative and quality sports programmes are delivered.
 

Our Approach

We have established ourselves since 1993. The centre was founded by national athlete, Ms. May Tan. You can view her profile here. The aim of the training centre is to provide budgetary yet content-rich wushu/taiji courses to the schools students (primary and secondary).

We have noticed that most of the students have misconception about learning wushu in general. Wushu is often thought to be an "old style" art that is only suitable for the Chinese or traditional people. This is not true. Coupled with some scientific theory and the vast experiences of May Tan, wushu can be very good for slimming, muscles relaxation and other bio-health enhancement. It can be applied to many unhealthy phenomenon found in most students nowadays like obese, not attentive, feeling tired easily etc. Most of these phenomenon actually stamped from the fact that most of the students are severely lack of exercise. Even if there are some form of CCAs which they must take part in, they are also not enthusiastic enough to persist on.

Wushu can also be very interesting when the correct approach is taken. We have very instructional materials and or self-referencing materials that can assist the students to understand wushu better. Most of these materials are archived as digital media and they are uploaded to our Digital Media at library.singapore-wushu.com. Just perform a search on some the keywords like "routines", "taiji" etc and you will be able to get some information. Beside providing the necessary information to help students get started and to arouse their interest, we have also make in-depth study on what contents should be delivered to them. This can be in-terms of the proper translation of the vocabulary found in traditional wushu, the postures most suitable for beginners without and the level of physical acceptance for their developing bodies.

We have taken a modern approach in devising the courses' curriculums. The courses are structured in such a manner that they are level-based learning and at the same time, each course deliver the appropriate  contents at that level. If potential students show their interests for further wushu learning, we will make the arrangements for them to enroll into higher level of training course, even into the national team. Our main objective is to increase sporting opportunities for the young, especially those previously not involved in sport. We also hope that the courses we provide can help in their character-building, improving self-esteem and nurturing of life skills.
