Wing Tsun kung fu or Wing Chun is an efficient concept-based Chinese martial art and form of self-defense utilizing both striking and grappling while specializing in close-range combat. Wing Tsun was developed to allow people to defend themselves even against bigger and stronger opponents and that prides itself in its practical nature, with no references to mythical creatures or animal movements. Its applications are often described as being simple, but not easy. Though seemingly soft, Wing Tsun's attitude is aggressive in both defense and offense.

​Wing Tsun kung fu is self-defense in its most uncompromising form. Employing simple and clever self-defense methodology and concepts without complicated techniques, it's a fast, simple and effective system. Wing Tsun teaches the ability to overcome larger, stronger opposition with the least amount of effort using body integrity, balance and mind-over matter common-sense techniques.

The principle focus of Wing Tsun is in defending against your attacker and in ending the confrontation as quickly as possible, while limiting the damage to any involved parties. The main objective of Wing Tsun is to be a realistic system of self-defense. Wing Tsun does not focus on fighting “techniques”, instead relying on fighting and energy principles to be followed at all times. The central idea is that, under pressure, it is impossible to visually recognize the precise direction and speed of an attack and make a conscious decision on an effective way in which to react, all within the very brief amount of time you have before your opponent’s attack lands. Rather, one must (counter) attack immediately in a very direct and protected manner and rely on reflexes to determine how to react if the opponent’s attack continues to pose a problem.

In practicing Wing Tsun, the focus is less on drilling powerful and quick techniques as in many martial arts such as Karate and Tae Kwon Do, but so called “sensitivity drills” where the student learns a softness in the limbs which prevents the restriction in movement created by being permanently tense. The system also stresses minimal movements to achieve the necessary effect so all movement is as efficient as possible.

The power and benefits of Wing Tsun :

The main objective of Wing Tsun is to be a realistic system of self-defense and it is also a method of inner growth and a way to a more relaxed, and healthy lifestyle. When men and women learn Wing Tsun, they develop a fresh new awareness of their body and a heightened sense of confidence in all situations, along with sharpened perception. 

What Our Students Are Saying 

YELP
"The teacher, Sifu Matyas, is one of the most patient and skilled instructors I've experienced. Over a few months, he taught us basic techniques and defensive maneuvers combined with practical and efficient movements.  We have made a lot of progress on our skills and I have been very impressed with the results to both my physical health, physique and muscle tone, as well as sharpening my reaction skills."  - B. Y. 

"This has been the most interesting and enjoyable of my experiences learning martial arts. Lessons are highly individualized based on your skill level and the pace at which you learn.  After group exercises at the beginning of each class session, the instruction is typically broken into small working groups of 3 and 4 students who are learning the same skills as demonstrated and coached by an instructor." -Jonathan S.

"Instruction and training is geared toward the individuals ability, hence one's development is in a way dependent on ones desire and commitment to learn. You will feel very comfortable in this school and accepted by everyone training there.." - Lester Y. 


​"A great place to learn Wing Chun. How do I know? I've been to many schools in many places. The way they teach is very methodical and you'll learn a lot in just six months of training. Also, they do stress emphasis on footwork, lots and lots of it which I found refreshing." - Tony M.
