This is our most formal class. It is designed to specifically teach you the skills of Wing Chun Kung Fu as it is currently understood by our lineage. Classes consist of a 20 minute warm up and stretch, followed by an hour of techniques, forms and a rigorous warm down. Form practice ends the session. Students are able to stay on for a further 30 minutes to unpack the class through Sil Lum Tao (first form). These classes are mostly concerned with the external component of the art. That said, we ensure that we integrate key internal concepts, as this lays the foundations for the deeper training and dramatically improves power generation, speed and reaction time. This class is for all students from beginning to advanced. Students are partnered with someone of similar skill level. Training is usually in small groups and one on one with a training partner. Students will do a lot of kicking and punching to pads and controlled contact in the early stages. Training twice a week for 6 months will give you a good grounding in this Martial Art. You will learn the traditional forms, shapes and movements that make up the Wing Chun System. Gradings occur at key milestones of your journey. The grading structure is; Yellow, Red, SiHing (Pre-Level Instructor) & Blue (Instructor). Uniforms are encouraged, though not compulsory. Beginning students are asked to attend a trial class before joining the general classes. Trial classes are held every Thursday Night. |
