WingTsun - Benefits

WingTsun Benefits

The reason for starting a martial art is purely a personal choice. Whatever your motivation for getting started, you will find all WT instructors ready and willing to help you attain your goals. Our school is founded on the principles of teaching excellence, structured methodology, personal attention and tradition.

We appreciate that each student has different goals, and we strive to help you reach yours. We provide each student with the most complete and effective methods to help you reach your full Self-Defence potential. The WingTsun (WT) instructors are personally selected, not only for their WingTsun (WT) skills, but also just as important for their ability to effectively communicate their knowledge and understanding to students of all ages. In addition to his WingTsun qualifications most full instructors has the following qualifications:

Certificate IV in Workplace Training and Assessment
Senior First Aid Certificate
Work Cover accredited Occupational Health and Safety awareness course for supervisors
Self Defence Benefits

The best method of self defence is one that can fend off the most attacks with the least amount of movements. In the book "On Single Combat", Grand Master Keith Kernspecht gives an excellent scientific explanation of why "less is more". Perfecting one move that provides comprehensive defence will stand you in better stead in a dangerous situation than learning hundreds of moves and not being able to carry out any of them properly. Studying WT will enable you to:

Learn how to avoid potentially volatile situations
Learn verbal violence prevention techniques
Learn how to manage your fear when in stressful situations such as physical confrontations
Learn quick, efficient and realistic techniques to prevent your assailant from continuing with their attack

In a real self defence situation rules of fairness (which could alter the outcome of a fight) don't exist. On the street, unfortunately there are no rules. That's why in WT we stress the importance of a training system that is as full and complete as possible, and which acknowledges all of the "five distances" that are part of the fighting-situation: fighting with feet, hands, knees and elbows, holding and throwing and finally ground fighting or as we like to call it anti-grappling

In any of the above situations the WT principles can be applied successfully, which is why so many martial arts practitioners turn to WT.
