Wing Chun is the complete self-defence system covering all of the 5 ranges in unarmed combat. In order of distance, the ranges are;
 |
Kicking - Longest unarmed range |
|---|---|
 |
Punching - Most common range for self-defence |
 |
Elbows & Knees - Closer than Punching Range |
 |
Stand-Up Grappling - Shortest unarmed stand-up range |
 |
Anti Ground Fighting - Groundwork |
We begin by teaching punching range, as this is the most common range for attacks to begin. Our teaching system is constantly looking at realistic self-defence situations, and adapts to suit the needs of today's society. Remember, Wing Chun is self-defence, not how to fight in a ring, in competitions, or how to score points in sparring.
Wing Chun is a system based on concepts & principles, not hundreds of fixed techniques. These simple principles apply in all situations and can be learnt by anyone, without requiring a high level of strength, stamina or overall fitness to perform them.
