Two New Wing Chun Red Belts.

What a fantastic day on Saturday. Great turnout, thank you one and all, so very proud of all belts awarded with obviously a huge mention to Dave and Frances. Massive milestone. Congratulations “Red Devils” it makes it all worthwhile.

So onwards and upwards, this week is all about attacking the back, a strategty all Wing Chun warriors need to know. Get the back, attack the back, control the back. Tonight’s class will be taken by our accomplished Black Belts John (Kraken) and Alex, as Amy and I have a breather. Tomorrow for a bit of fun I will be coaching true boxing with a tribute to Lomachenko. Looking at what makes him tick with some of his best tactics and training drills.

See you on the mat.

Old School Class Tonight

Hey guys,

Thanks for an awe inspiring True Boxing class last night, one of my all time favourites. Excited to be back on a Wednesday night tonight, I have a cool and old school class planned so try to be there.

Lunch class with Zac will be continuing on this week’s theme of real-world applications of trapping hands and the perfect side kick, plus his own flavours added to the mix.

It’s uncertain times but the show must go on.

Stay focused out there, be tolerant of others, take no risks and above all, stay safe.

See you on the mat.
