With the understanding that Wing Chun Kung Fu is both a practical and pragmatic form of martial arts and an expression of concepts, our Academy’s attitude on Wing Chun is pretty straightforward: no politics, no gimmicks, and no magic. We also avoid using adjectives like traditional, authentic, classical, pure, and modified
Since there are different levels of students in each class, advanced students can help beginners, which raises their standards, and advanced students can review their fundamental techniques. Private instruction for individuals or small groups is offered by our instructors, who have years of expertise and are prepared to teach all classes

The Internal Wing Chun Academy offers an excellent solution to anybody wanting to learn devastatingly effective self defence skills while improving their health, fitness and overall wellbeing.
The Academy’s unique training programme in Wing Chun Kung Fu, designed by Grandmaster Jim Fung, is a modern and structured approach to self defence which is both mentally and physically stimulating.
It is highly effective at equipping students of all ages and physiques with realistic self defence skills from the first lesson through its delivery of ‘Fitness with a Purpose’.
The practice of Wing Chun contradicts most other martial arts in that students cultivate the power of relaxation, rather than brute strength, for use in self defence. The brain is trained to relearn natural responses to stimuli and signal muscles to perform in an optimum and relaxed state.
Using the principles of redirection and leverage – or ‘going with the flow’ – in place of hard blocking, oncoming strikes are redirected or neutralised. The opponent’s force is turned against him. By coordinating body and mind, students gradually increase their ability to generate power and strive to develop Wing Chun’s unique thought force, or ‘Nim Lik’.
The foundation of the Wing Chun system is the development of an extremely strong stance and the use of techniques based on natural body movements which are fast, direct and extremely powerful. They are easy to learn and can be used with confidence in a real fight – anywhere, in any situation and in any type of clothing.
The Academy’s classes incorporate callisthenics and aerobic exercises designed and supervised by qualified fitness instructors. Known as ‘power training’, these drills involve the major muscles of the body, raise the heart rate and blood circulation, and improve the power and speed of techniques. Combined with the practice of the Wing Chun forms, techniques and sparring, they help students become fitter, stronger and more agile.

``I started my Wing Chun journey in 2021. I have found excellent teaching and students who are passionate about their art. Do not confuse style over substance try this class!``
``Wing Chun for me is a personal, humbling, thinking, learning and rewarding martial art. I thank Sifu Amjad and Siu Ash for teaching the art of Wing Chun``
``I started training around the start of this year. I did it as I felt I had no way of defending myself in case I was on my own, not thinking I would ever have to use it but just having it as a skill in case.``
