History

Wing Chun Kung Fu is a southern Chinese style of martial art. This unique fighting system was devised by a nun nearly four hundred years ago in Fukien, the centre of Chinese pugilism.

The principles of this deadly fighting system is to be simple, practical, efficient, use the center line to attack, be effective in close quarters and to use the opponents strength to counter.

Training the waist and wrist in order to generate explosive power for punching and kicking as well as footwork is practised to the full by all students from the very first lesson. As a result, a well trained Wing Chun fighter can use their skill to defend,attack and counter-attack in all situations, be it on the street or in an enclosed space.

A good example is that one can use their hands and feet to defeat their opponent even in a telephone box! These attributes lead the art of Wing Chun to be considered one of the most effective street fighting systems in the world.
