During his time in the Police Service, Si-Fu Leigh gained a great deal of knowledge and practical experience in street combat and violent situations which provided him with the opportunity to test the application of Traditional Wing Chun in real life situations. Si-Fu Leigh believes that Traditional Wing Chun should be taught to those people who are not only serious about being able to protect themselves in real violent situations with one or more attackers, but to those people who are interested in a more holistic approach to martial arts including managing stress, treating injuries and illness and increasing their overall health and well being.

Alfredo Del-Brocco began training in the martial arts early 1980. 1982 found myself training at the World Wing Chun Association, Corrs Lane, Melbourne under Si-Gung William Cheung. The year was December 1982, & the atmosphere in the School was “electrifying”. Two students had just won the World Invitation Full Contact Kung Fu Championships in Hong Kong. Wing Chun took up the next several years of my life. An opportunity to have a week’s holiday in Sydney in 1988 eventuated. The rest is history. I trained as a full-time student (living in the Sydney Chapter of the WWCKFA) for a 5-year period.Read more.
