Wing Chun Instructor Bio
I began martial arts training with Judo as a child and later, in my teens, I trained for some time in Shotokan Karate before discovering Wing Chun under the United Kingdom Wing Chun Kung Fu Association (UKWCKFA). My Instructor later branched off to form the NWCA.

Sifu Tony and I continue to train together and teach classes on a weekly basis and are very proud of the standard of the Instructors and students of Wing Chun-UK. For more see Wing Chun our Way
