Wing Chun also known as Ving Tsun or Wing Tsun is a subtle and complete system of Chinese Kung Fu, developed over hundreds of years to serve as a fighting method, natural protection for the body and as effective self protection.

According to ledgend Ving Tsun was initially devised by Ng Moi, a Buddhist nun. The style was then taught to a young girl called Yim Wing Chun, who successfully used her newly learned skills to defend herself against a local bully who attempted to rape her.

"Improve self confidence, assertiveness and self esteem"

When the legendary Grandmaster Ip Man arrived in Hong Kong, the style was taught to Wong Shun Leung, who in turn developed his own interpretation of the style based around his experience of Beimo or challenge fighting. Wong was a peerless and intelligent fighter. Throughout his many Hong Kong challenge fights, in which he fought experts and champions from many different martial arts styles, he remained undefeated. Wong named his style Ving Tsun. It was forged in the fire of battle to be simple direct and efficient. He was also known as Bruce Lee's mentor and coach and continued to exchange ideas with him up until Bruce's death.

"Suitable for any age and fitness level"

Ving Tsun does not pit strength against strength but rather employs its unique understanding of angles and sensitivity to force in order to over come aggression. A small or physically weaker victim who is skilled in Ving Tsun, can overcome an attack from a much bigger and stronger assailant. This makes Ving Tsun also ideal for Women's Self Defence. It is also suitable for any age, and fitness level. The training focus is on the reality of fighting, as opposed to competition or sport.

"Exercises are scientific in approach."

Ving Tsun exercises are systematic and logical, training is carried out in a atmosphere of friendly co-operation as opposed to one of aggressive competition, allowing students to develop freely and at their own pace. It is possible for a complete novice to become competent within one year, although practical ability is only the beginning; there is always room for deeper exploration and personal interpretation.

"Maintains a healthy body and mind"

Aside from the obvious fighting applications, Ving Tsun also helps to maintain a healthy body and mind. Regular practice will help loosen the joints, tone the musculature and improve posture. By the very nature of the practice a relaxed and focused mind is also achieved. This combination reduces stress and allows the body's natural protection mechanisms to strengthen.

"Teaching is endorsed to the highest levels."

The effectiveness of Alan Gibson's teaching is endorsed to the highest levels, both in Hong Kong and the UK. Alan has been teaching Kung Fu and Women's Self Defence for many years he has had three books (Why Wing Chun Works, Simple Thinking: Intelligent Fighters and The Wing Chun Forms: Combat Textbooks) as well as several DVDs on Ving Tsun published.
