Wing Chun is like no other martial art that is currently trained in Britain, unlike BJJ, MMA, judo, karate and aikido just to name a few, Wing Chun Kung fu has never been widely known in the United Kingdom, even more so in the north of England, normally on British television its usual see people flying through the air and doing spectacular kicks that look really cool from great actors such as Jackie Chan and Jet Li doing spectacular stunts having you believe Chinese kung fu is done that way.
Well throw all that out of the window, Wing Chun is totally the
opposite, it is simple and direct making it seem very fast, this makes
it suitable for weaker less athletic types to fight well and on many
occasions win the fight. Your age or gender is not important; Wing Chun
is suitable for mostly everyone.
Pictured right are the people responsible for bringing this wonderful
martial art to you totally preserved in its original form so that you
can learn it as it was passed down to those that came before them. so
don't miss out on the opportunity of taking one of the greatest
adventures of your life.
How many of you know that Bruce Lee built the foundation of his own
martial art Jeet Kune Do (The way of the intercepting fist) on what he
had learned from Ip Man (pictured at the back). Ip Man in turn passed
the Wing Chun system down to his two children Ip Chun (top right) and Ip
Ching (middle right) who in turn passed it down to Samuel Kwok
(bottom
left) who was entrusted with passing on the complete Wing Chun system, to the known world so that it will never be lost or forgotten in
accordance with the wishes of Ip Man, And that's why we are here, we are an
AUTHORIZED
