AWCF 2023 Annual Conference (and Sports Workshop) – Mona Vale – 28th Sept – 2nd October.

Welcome to Mona Vale, a gem nestled in the Northern Beaches of Sydney, and the proud host of our upcoming AWCF 2023 conference at Dragon Tao Kung Fu, one of the premier kung fu schools in Sydney.

Mona Vale is not just a place for training; it’s a destination that perfectly blends the discipline of martial arts with the tranquility of a beach town.

This year the Conference covers the October long weekend, from the 29th of September to the 2nd of October with a host of guests, presentations, workshops, and activities.

In addition to the usual conference, an entirely optional Sports Workshop is being run at the venue on the 28th, the day before the conference.

This optional workshop is a great opportunity for young and old practitioners to begin to approach organising,  officiating, and competing in local sporting events, larger scale combative sport competition, and even organise fun inter-club competitions in a safe and respectful manner.

When it comes to dining, Mona Vale boasts an array of excellent restaurants. Toro Nero and Paddock & Vine come highly recommended, offering a variety of dishes that cater to all tastes. After a day of training, these eateries provide the perfect setting to relax and refuel over good food.

Getting around is a breeze with the B Line bus service and readily available Uber rides. Whether you’re heading to the training venue or exploring the local sights, you’ll find the transportation options convenient and efficient.

In Mona Vale, you’ll find more than just a training venue. You’ll discover a vibrant community, stunning landscapes, and rich history. Did you know that Mona Vale is home to the beautiful Mona Vale Headland Reserve? This park offers breathtaking views of the ocean and is a popular spot for whale watching during migration season. It’s just one of the many features that make Mona Vale a unique and memorable place. We look forward to welcoming you to our event and to this beautiful part of Sydney.

Ticket Purchases- Tickets are available for the 4 days of the main conference, for individual days of the main conference, and for the sports workshop during the day before the conference.
