It is one of the most practical and efficient martial arts available for self-defense. The system is a pragmatic art that can be utilized at a moment’s notice without any need for warm up or stretching. Due to its use of close quarters for combat it is the system of choice for numerous military Special Forces and police units around the world.
Students of Wing Chun will see dramatic improvements in balance, coordination, reflexes, confidence, and self-awareness. Diligent practice can also lead to improved flexibility, and increased core and leg strength. It is a martial arts system that will work for an individual regardless of size, strength, and gender or fitness level.

You will learn to utilize punches, kicks, throws, and anti-grappling techniques in realistic and effective self-defense applications. The classes are taught in a fun environment that stresses safety.
