Wing Chun Kung Fu
The Chinese Martial Art of Close-Range Combat
What is Wing Chun Kung Fu?
Wing Chun is a traditional Chinese martial art renowned for its efficiency, fluidity, and simplicity. Originating several centuries ago in southern China, it was designed to quickly neutralize an opponent — even one larger or stronger — through intelligent principles rather than brute force.
Built on short, direct, and precise movements, it develops coordination, speed, and power while cultivating sensitivity and the ability to anticipate.
Its practice relies on optimal use of body structure, distance management, and economy of movement, making it a highly effective system for close-range combat.
Level 1 to 10
Mastery, fluidity, confidence
At Shanmai Martial Arts, we offer Wing Chun training structured into ten progressive levels, designed to combine the richness of tradition with the efficiency of a modern approach. Our method also integrates principles from Escrima, creating a unique synergy between two complementary martial arts.
As you progress, you will learn to fully harness your body structure to generate power and stability, refine your sensitivity and anticipation through Chi Sao (sticky hands) training, and adapt your techniques to any situation — whether in close-range or long-range combat. This complete program is ideal for improving physical fitness, building confidence, and acquiring practical, effective self-defence skills. With our progressive method, you advance at your own pace while building strong, lasting foundations. (Ages 10+)
