Wing Tsun, often spelled Wing Chun, distinguishes itself as a highly logical and efficient style of Kung Fu. Its self-defense approach emphasizes minimal, direct movements and proactive engagement making it exceptionally effective. . Uniquely, Wing Tsun's system is structured to impart fundamental and practical skills within a relatively short timeframe of a few months, while deeper tactile sensitivity and mastery develop through consistent practice.
Beyond its self-defense efficacy, the training methods in Wing Tsun cultivate a wealth of physical benefits, fostering healthy movement patterns, enhanced agility, improved balance, heightened concentration and coordination, and better cardiovascular health. Furthermore, practitioners often experience increased focus, mobility, and a greater range of motion.
Wing Tsun Kung Fu is readily accessible to individuals of average physical ability. It's an excellent choice for adults seeking practical self-defense skills without the need for ground grappling or complex, highly flexible athletic movements that can be challenging to learn.
If you've considered exploring martial arts but felt unsure about where to begin, Wing Tsun offers a welcoming entry point. We encourage you to experience its unique approach firsthand!
I am currently accepting a limited number of dedicated students. My classes are intentionally small and conducted in a semi-private format, allowing for focused individual attention and accelerated skill development. Serious inquiries from motivated individuals are welcome.

What exactly will I learn in the first few weeks?
Master the Fundamentals: Learn the core techniques of striking (punches and kicks), effective movement, and essential self-defense principles. Develop your skills through structured
form training, coordination-enhancing drills, and basic tactile awareness exercises.
What exactly will I learn in the first few months?
Elevate Your Skills: Progress to intermediate-level technique sequences (forms), refine your punching and kicking proficiency, and develop more advanced footwork. Enhance your
hand-eye coordination and explore the sensitivity and responsiveness of Dan Chi Sau (single arm clinging hands) and Chi Sau (double arm clinging hands), culminating in
practical self-defense applications.
What makes Wing Tsun Kung Fu Superior for Self-Defense?
Wing Tsun is an efficient and practical martial art rooted in simple yet powerful principles, concepts, and ideas. Rather than relying on the memorization of numerous, potentially
forgettable techniques, its strength lies in mastering a few universal movements that become deeply ingrained and readily applicable in various situations.
How much does it cost to attend classes?
Since this isn't a business-driven school, I keep my fees modest and affordable. My passion is to share these skills with committed learners. Please come and try a class to
get a clear understanding of how it works. Training is offered on a flexible month-to-month basis, with no hidden fees or contracts.
Are there any safety concerns when learning Wing Tsun Kung Fu?
Not at all! Creating a safe learning environment is paramount. Contact training is closely supervised and offered solely to students who are comfortable and wish to participate.
What is Chi Sau (clinging hands) training and why is it needed?
Chi Sau, a distinctive partner exercise in Wing Tsun, plays a crucial role in developing tactile (touch) reflex skills. By learning to sense pressure and the direction of
force the moment contact is made, practitioners gain the ability to adapt instantaneously to an opponent's movements. This eliminates the need to disengage and reset,
allowing for seamless transitions into exploiting vulnerabilities, trapping limbs, or executing simultaneous evasive maneuvers and attacks from unexpected angles. The
ultimate goal of Chi Sau training is the cultivation of exceptionally refined contact reflexes.
What is the Wooden Dummy used for and when is it taught?
Training on the wooden dummy enhances efficient close-range movement, correct attack angles, push and pull dynamics, close-range power generation, advanced kicking techniques,
and footwork precision.
Mastery of the initial three empty-hand forms and their applications is a prerequisite before students are introduced to the wooden dummy form.
My name is Robert, and I have been a dedicated student in the Leung Ting lineage of Wing Tsun Kung Fu since 1989. With over three decades of teaching experience, I offer in-depth instruction rooted in this respected tradition.
Over the past 35 years, I've had the distinct honor of learning from numerous esteemed Wing Tsun Masters and Sifus (instructors) through regular classes and intensive training seminars, including instruction directly from Grandmaster Leung Ting. My foundational understanding was significantly shaped during my early years under the guidance of Master Emin Boztepe, and since 2013, I have continued to deepen my knowledge and skills with Sifu Glenn Tillman at Alamo City Kung Fu Association.
I have taught Self Defense courses for Texas Department of Public Safety, Amplify Credit Union, and at Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation.
I hold deep respect and gratitude for Sifu Glenn Tillman and his philosophy of generously and openly sharing his profound Wing Tsun knowledge.
I would like to acknowledge Sifu Alex Richter for providing a solid foundation in Hong Kong Chi Sau.
