About Somerset Wing Chun

Somerset Wing Chun maintains an open, friendly, politics-free view of all styles and lineages of wing chun. We avoid politics by teaching the system from a standpoint of applied body mechanics as oppsed to any individual perspective.

Wing Chun is a concepts and principles art with many differing approaches, interpretations, viewpoints and variations. Even where a number of Sifu's are grouped together within the same lineage, association, academy or family name, there may still be considerable differences in the standard of the resulting students.

In setting up Somerset Wing Chun the intention was remain independent and teach from the point of view of the student, Somerset Wing Chun students are taught to question and not take answers at face value.

• We do not operate a franchise or pyramid selling structure.
• Instructors are autonomus and retain all training fees paid to them.
• We do not withold training to be taught in expensive private lessons.
• Students can take private lessons but its not a requirement in order to learn the complete system, all aspects of the system are taught fully in open class.

In addition to our core syllabus, we present the many variations and emphasis which have come to prominence over the last 50 years, so that students can critically analyse what is being presented and maximise their understanding.

We come from an excellent Chinese lineage and are grateful and respectful to our lineage, but do not use this as a marketing tool, as we believe that it is the quality of our instruction, offered at club level, which is important.
