class Class:
  def f(self, *args, **kwargs):
    return apply(SomeFunc, args, kwargs)

You could even generalize this:

def adapt_function_for_class(f):
  def adapted_function(self, base_function = f, *args, **kwargs):
    return apply(base_function, args, kwargs)
  return adapted_function

class Class:
  f = adapt_function_for_class(SomeFunc)
