“I’m a big fan of kung fu but I don’t think I did very well today! I think it’s an amazing art and I’m such a huge Jackie Chan fan, so it was nice to experience that a little and hopefully one day I will have the chance to explore more of it. Doing the standing poses was really fun!” said Dimitrov.
“I never got to try kung fu before and I see now that it’s actually very difficult and not as easy as they make it look! I really enjoyed my time. My favourite was when we tried replicating the poses they showed us – it was quite fun and I hope I get the chance to do more of that,” said Kecmanovic.
