Wing Chun is a system designed to use relaxation, technique and natural body mechanics, rather than brute strength, to deal with an opponent. You will learn how to efficiently use your own mind and body in self-defence rather than sheer muscular force. To view our training syllabus click here.
Wing Chun, like many of the Kung Fu styles, is said to have its origins in the famous Shaolin temple of China. Kung Fu was taught there because it provided an efficient form of defence. It also served to strengthen the body and mind in preparation for the meditation practices undertaken by the monks and nuns. You can read more about the origin of Wing Chun by clicking here.
