What we’re about
WingTsun / Wing Chun Kung Fu lovers are all welcome.
If you are looking for a great activity that will get you moving, get your heart pumping, and learn an incredibly useful skill at the same time then this class is for you. You will gain confidence and improve your balance on day one.
This is not an MMA class or traditional boxing class. WingTsun is designed to keep you alive in a real situation when rules and referees are not there to stop the fight. Many of the concepts can certainly be used in sport fighting but it is designed to end the attack in the most effective way possible. If you are interested in a private lesson to better understand the effectiveness of WingTsun please reach out to me for more details.
I guarantee you will learn something new. Monthly membership options and drop-in rates are available. See the website for more details.
I’ve been practicing martial arts for 15+ years. I have been an advanced hand-to-hand combat instructor IWTA-NAS certified since 2015.
In my opinion, WingTsun is by far the most efficient and effective self-defense philosophy I have found that is effective for all ages and abilities. I am always open to learning more. In this class setting, we will be learning WingTsun.
The IWTA is the world’s largest martial arts organization and WingTsun™ is incorporated in MCMAP and used by the military and special forces. I’m a certified Leung Ting WingTsun® Instructor and I’m also a student of Sifu Will Parker, a sixth-level Master of WingTsun.
The basic principles include:
- Using your opponent’s energy against them.
- Assuming your opponent is always stronger.
- Controlling the centerline.
- Using physics and body mechanics to address any situation with intelligence instead of brute strength.

Lookup Ip Man if you are not familiar with this system. It was popularized by Bruce Lee and is often demonstrated in popular movies by Jackie Chan, and Jet Lee, and in movies like Bourne Identity and Iron Man.
In my experience,
Women tend to thrive in this system since they are often more open to using skills and techniques instead of muscles to try to overpower an opponent. It’s often harder for guys to give up the need to use muscle.
My partner and I signed up for WIngTsun many years and then my Mother joined us not long after and we all trained and became instructors together.
We offer private lessons on-site and in a variety of great locations around Oahu.
