Kim Marshman “Wing Tsun”

“I had no experience in Martial Arts until a friend introduced me to Wing Tsun, she told me about the demonstration night, and the free trial week, which I thought was a great idea. So I went along and stayed for the class afterwards, it was daunting being the new kid on the block especially a girl in a male dominated class, but everyone was so friendly and welcoming, I felt at home. I couldn’t wait till the next class.

At the beginning I wanted WT purely for the exercise but once I started to learn techniques / the principles and more about what WT offered, I was hooked. I am amazed how effective and practical the Wing Tsun system is. I would recommend this to anyone no matter how young / old you are, its never too late. It’s a great way to improve your Co-ordination, fitness, balance and also getting to know your body.

I have been a student since Sept 2005. I started off training 2 times a week but that wasn’t enough so am now doing 3-4. I have noticed many changes in myself not only physically but also mentally. My confidence and strength has improved, I can honestly say I am the fittest I have ever been.

What I have read and seen about other martial arts, the advantage that Wing Tsun has is strength is not a factor. Wing Tsun was invented by a female so it is FANTASTIC for us women. In class we train with all different people and there are guys that are much bigger than myself and boy am I stoked when I defend myself…… With using our principles its nice to know we females can defend ourselves if one day we need to.

There are so many reasons I enjoy training, Si-Fu and Si Hing Peter make it an ego-free environment. We all learn in different ways and they cater for everyone’s needs. Their dedication and patience encourages us student to do the best we can. They are professional in every way yet very approachable.

THANK YOU Si- Fu and Si Hing
