West Tampa Wing Chun Club

West Tampa Wing Chun Club We train in the Wong Shun Leung Ving Tsun Kuen Hok method of Wing Chun. We carry no titles and have no belts. Later, he started training Moy Yat Ving Tsun.

We’re firmly dedicated to developing skills that prevail in the pavement arena and that can be applied with few limits. "Unlike many traditional martial art systems, Ving Tsun (Wing Chun) focuses on 'in-fighting' – that is, close-range combat. It strives to overwhelm the adversary at the very first opportunity, rendering them unable to retaliate effectively. Of particular advantage to practitioner

s of this system is the ability to respond instinctively whenever one's limbs are obstructed or in any way pressed, dragged or jammed-up by an opponent. This high-level skill is developed and enhanced through the training drill known as Chi Sau ("sticking-hands"), and when trained to an advanced level, can even enable the Ving Tsun fighter to attack and control when the eyesight is obstructed. The hands literally learn to "think for themselves", thus further adding to the ability of the Ving Tsun practitioner to work the "in-fighting" range effectively."
