THE ART OF SIMPLICITY

WHAT IS KUNG FU (功夫) ?

Popularly used as a synonym for "Chinese martial art", its meaning is broader. This is an expertise developed through a prolonged effort and which manifests itself when necessary, bringing benefits to the practitioner.

 

WHAT IS WING CHUN (詠春) ?

 

It is a style of Kung Fu which applies the principle of Simplicity in life and self-defense. Listening to oneself, to the situation and to our relation with the situation allow us to identify the Center. The identification of this Center with precision, and at each moment, offers us the choice to act (or to act without acting) in the golden mean. In this way, we can achieve more results (effectiveness) with less resources (efficiency). The spelling "Ving Tsun" and "Wing Chun" are equivalent.

RESPECT AND ASSISTANCE TO SUPPORT TOGETHER THE EFFORT OF THE JOURNEY

We all have accumulated habits and beliefs over the course of life that prevent us from being the best version of ourselves. The journey is arduous and long because it takes continuous effort to remove these layers of blockages and let our spirit shine in an authentic and pure way. Often, these blockages prevent us from starting the journey or discourage us and make us give up on it. This is why the support of a guide and a group of members is so important. We call it Kung Fu family.
