TEACHING SYSTEM AND SYLLABUS OUTLINE
We aim to conduct classes in a friendly and productive
atmosphere ensuring that the classes are
enjoyable but also mentally and physically stimulating.
By providing a more
personal level of teaching we aim to provide a better understanding on
the part of the student. Students are encouraged to
ask intelligent and analytical questions. Wing Chun is a
'thinking persons' martial art.
Wing Chun is an art which is easy to learn yet extremely
difficult to master. However, with persistence and
determination, all students have the potential to reach
that level. Wing Chun should not be looked upon as a
rigid system to be blindly followed. It is flexible and
adaptable to individual requirements as all true art
forms are.
There is no overnight success formula but with time and
effort, Wing Chun will provide students with all they
could want from a martial art.
Our syllabus is
endorsed and approved by the International Wing Chun
Academy and all grading and qualifications are recognised
by that respected organisation.
