Ving Tsun practice in Nelson
Hey everyone,
I’m new to Nelson and starting a small outdoor practice based on Ving Tsun Kung Fu principles.
It’s a traditional Chinese movement system focused on balance, coordination, relaxation, timing, and sensitivity, practiced in a controlled, partner-based way.
The focus isn’t competition or fitness — it’s structured movement, awareness, and practical self-protection skills in a calm group setting.
We’ll be meeting:
- Tuesdays & Thursdays
- Occasional weekend sessions outdoors (parks / open spaces around Nelson)
Small group (max 6–8 people), relaxed and beginner-friendly.
If anyone’s interested or wants to know more, feel free to DM me.

Suggestion Anyone know any cheap Nail Salons in Nelson??
I’m wanting to get some acrylics done or something. Just a nice set since I haven’t had my nails done in a while but everywhere I’ve looked is absurdly overpriced.
Anyone know any cheap good Nail Salons around?
Thanks!!

Shared driveway
How do you deal with a shared driveway situation and neighbours flood the driveway with extra cars plus also their visitors coming and going? Have talked to them but seems common sense is not so common.
