Coach Profile

I have heard about Wing Chun's superb fists and kicks since I was a child. I happened to have a skiing accident and needed to seek treatment from a Chinese medicine practitioner. During a chat with Dr. Zhang Yong, I opened up the question of the authenticity of Wing Chun. Dr. Zhang even gave an impromptu demonstration of "Shaking Jin", which immediately started my search for art. Mental journey. I have been studying Wing Chun with my master for five years. The process requires both diligence and understanding while striving to explore the full range of Wing Chun sects. Therefore, I firmly believe that the sooner you start learning Wing Chun, the better. Children’s muscles and bones are more flexible, which is the best time to learn Wing Chun. In addition to today’s social conditions, it is important to have the skills close to you and learn to integrate from the learning process. The contents of the course include martial arts ethics, respecting teachers and respecting the Tao, etc., in order to achieve the goal of passing on virtues and martial arts from generation to generation, and to openly pass on the rationality, scientificity and practicality of the sect Foshan Wing Chun and preserve Lingnan culture.
