Wing Chun or Chinese Boxing as it is sometimes called has it's roots in Southern China. Made famous on the streets & rooftops of Hong Kong by Grandmaster Ip Man's famous students Bruce Lee, Wong Shun Leung and others, it is probably the most widely practiced kung fu in the world.

Moi Fa Wing Chun is based on Sifu Tennet's experiences and training prodoninantly in TJ Wing Chun, WSL Wing Chun and Lun Gai's Foshan Wing Chun. With the Academy's Wing Chun you have a unique and comphrensive blend of authentic and practical wing chun as descended from Ip Man. Sifu Tennet has also devised modern training methods to enhance the skills and enable safe but functional training drills.

Wing Chun is a very scientific and practical self defence system so the training does not offer as much of a challenge to fitness levels as the MKF training does.

Filipino Martial Arts go by many names. Eskrima, Kali, Arnis and even Kuntao as used to describe the highly practical weapons based arts. Our training is largely based on the Doce Pares system which covers single stick, double stick, knife, empty hands and stick & Dagger as the basic skills.

Like the other systems we teach the Filipino Arts in a safe and practical way. Filipino Martial Arts starts with weapons training. This develops high levels of coordination and reactions. The knife & stick defence is probably the best you will find in any martial arts systems.

The Filipino martial arts also cover additional weapons such as long stick/spear, Nunchaku, Pocket Stick and Locking & throwing techniques. They offer a complete training system for both sport and self defence and like our MKF provide a blend of great martial arts and a challenging workout.
