Men practising Wing Chun techniques in the academy

Train body and mind

Training Wing Chun is a practical way to stay focused, relieve stress, maintain a healthy body and gain confidence in your ability to protect yourself and your family. The system was popularised by Bruce Lee and later by the Yip Man films.

Classes run for one hour and combine shadow sparring, drills, trapping hands, partner applications and forms. Repetitive drills refine technique until movement becomes a reflex. Students of all ages and fitness levels learn to deflect an attacker’s energy with simultaneous blocking and striking.

Fitness, self-defence, stress relief, confidence, awareness, speed and power are among the benefits students train for. Come and try a free class to experience the approach firsthand.

Common questions

Men’s classes FAQs

Are the men’s Wing Chun classes co-ed?

Yes. The published adult programme is co-ed, and students train with partners of different sizes and experience levels.

Do I need to be fit or experienced before starting?

The adult programme accommodates different fitness and experience levels. No previous Wing Chun experience is required, and the academy can help you identify a suitable session.

What happens in an adult Wing Chun class?

The programme uses structured drills, forms, partner applications, shadow sparring and trapping-hands work. The exact focus varies between adult, cardio, Chi Sao, sparring and level-specific sessions.

What is Chi Sao?

Chi Sao develops sensitivity, positioning and the ability to respond to and counter applied forces at close range. It appears as a dedicated session in the adult timetable.
