South Coast Wing Chun prides itself on being a very progressive system. Our main focus and speciality is traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu – a style that uses clever and unusual techniques to win in self defence situations. Whilst we still include interesting concepts such as the ‘one inch punch’ and weapons such as the eight and a half foot pole, the core of the training revolves around relevant and realistic techniques.

Most of this involves testing the techniques under pressure, through either live drills, or sparring.

Repetitive set drills will only take students so far.

As a progressive club, we encourage students to cross train in styles that interest them. There are no politics – a lot of our students hold belts in other styles

We incorporate elements of Boxing, Kickboxing, Brazilian Jujitsu and more, in order to expand our overall martial arts skillset.

Training can vary from class to class, due to our instructors having different backgrounds and favourite ways of training. The fact that students can attend any class, means that they can gain a very wide range set of abilities.

The SCWC syllabus is extensive, showing a depth of knowledge of the wing chun system and its effectiveness.

We hold gradings only once a year, as we do not advocate belt chasing, but still believe that students should have a goal to strive towards and be proud of their hard work
