Welcome
Are you interested in learning a simple, effective and devastating self defence system? Or perhaps you are interested in improving your health, fitness, flexibility and strength while training in a fun, friendly and safe environment? Then Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu may be the activity you are looking for!
What is Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu?
Traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu is a Southern Fist, Chinese Boxing martial art system based on pressure point striking, human bio-mechanics and scientifically proven principles, so that you can have an upper edge on your opponent. Made popular by Bruce Lee, Traditional Wing Chun is one of the most sought after self defence systems to emerge from China and is often found integrated into specialist military combat training programs for units such as the US Navy Seals.
Traditional Wing Chun is a system which has been extensively tested & proven in real one-on-one and multiple opponent scenarios on the street. We also train many world champion competition fighters in the boxing and MMA arenas. Whilst Traditional Wing Chun is primarily a true self defence system for the street and real self defence situations, its proven scientific principles, concepts and strategies can be easily applied in any street or sport combat situation.
Put simply “Real skills for real life.” (Si-Fu Alfredo Del-Brocco).
The Wing Chun Philosophy
When fear is removed, the arrogance of uncertainty is dispelled, by learning how to fight, you learn how to not fight" - Grandmaster William Cheung
