What Is Wing Chun?
Wing Chun is a traditional Chinese martial art that focuses on close-range combat, efficient movement, and practical self-defence. Unlike other martial arts, Wing Chun doesn’t rely on brute strength or flashy moves—it uses angles, timing, and technique to overcome an opponent. It’s core principles are economy of motion and minimum movement, using the minimum possible energy and movement to dissipate the attack/neutralise the force.
Our classes include:
- Striking and blocking drills
- Sticky hands (Chi Sau) training
- Footwork and positioning
- Forms (Siu Nim Tao, Chum Kiu, Biu Jee)
- Application in self-defence situations

Who Can Join Our Martial Arts Classes?
Anyone! We welcome:
- Adults of all ages and fitness levels, our minimum age is 16.

- Students looking to improve focus, discipline, and mental clarity

You don’t need to be super fit or flexible to start. You just need the willingness to learn.
Wing Chun is also very good for your health and especially the brain. Using multiple parts of the brain to co-ordinate different parts of the body simultaneously is very good for cognitive function.
