Thread: NY/NJ Wing Chun?

    NY/NJ Wing Chun?

    Hi,
    Looking for affordable Wing Chun schools in the area. Too many to sort through and also looking for affordable as I'd like to also keep training some BJJ as well. Both can get very expensive in the new york city area.

    I have heard that Fighthouse has both BJJ and TWC and they do a lot of cross training with other styles and spar a lot there. I've also heard that there are some EBMAS guys that also train in BJJ and kickboxing in the area. I've also heard the sifu chow and sifu grados cross train and spar quite a bit.

    I've looked into LT's school but i've heard it can get expensive to learn the more advanced forms with all the fees and, that is a bit of kung fu kool-aid from some other guys i used to train VT with. Also, i'd like to try to avoid traditional wing chun schools that don't progress the system. Nothing against tradition, but I'm looking for more a progressive in-fighting system.

    In short, i would (in an ideal world) find a place that offers both WC and BJJ that are affordable and where the WC does some sparring with each other and other styles regularly. Or at least doesn't forbid from training with other styles.

    Suggestions? Thoughts? Places to avoid?

    If there is TWC at the fight club I don't know who's teaching it. There are only 3 Sifus of TWC in NYC and one of them is my student. I teach TWC every Sat. from 3:30 - 5:30pm. The address is 64 E. 4th St. 4th Floor.

    There is no REAL secrets in Wing Chun, but because the forms are conceptual you have to know how to decipher the information..That's the secret..

    I've moved to Virginia Beach...

    but my top student, Michael Mundy, has opened up a brand new TWC in the Tribeca area of lower Manhattan (Wednesday nights from 6:30-9:00).

    I've had about 6 students who've reached a high level of TWC knowledge and fighting skill - and Michael is arguably the best of the 6...

    although on any given day...

    If you're interested in seeing a class - you can reach Michael at: studio@michaelmundy.com
