Wing Chun Kung Fu

Wing Chun is a Chinese system of Kung Fu that specializes in developing dynamic, explosive and street-oriented practical self-defense. Originally developed by a woman, it relies on developing leverage and sensitivity rather than muscular strength to overcome an opponent. Training develops reflex speed, coordination and power to enable someone to quickly and effortlessly dispatch a larger and stronger attacker without relying on size or strength.

Through the use of solo forms, training equipment such as the wooden dummy and focus mitts, and two man drills, students develop the attributes of body coordination, sensitivity and leverage learning to apply the principles of Wing Chun in all situations including trapping, grappling and punching/kicking.

Class will consist of sensitivity drills, learning to not resist what’s taking place,( difficult for all of us,) develop correct leverage, realizing our own weaknesses, and being patient with yourself. Wing Chun in is 90 % mental. If you want to be fast, accurate and explosive you must first be slow and smooth.
