Kamon Wing Chun - A Progressive Approach

In these modern times I feel it is important that todays Martial Artist approaches their training in an open minded manner and is aware of the very real dangers they may face at street level.

As well as running my own classes which look at the methods involved primarily with the Wong Shun Leung Ving Tsun lineage and based around my personal Wing Chun path over the years, I also am a registered Instructor of 'Kamon Wing Chun' under the guidence of Kamon Founder  Master Kevin Chan.

Since I began my Wing Chun journey in the mid 90's (and over 10 years of Boxing beforehand) I have attended many seminars, workshops and personal training with a large number of Wing Chun Masters, Grandmasters and experts in various forms of close quarter combat and I can say with absolute positivety that Kevin Chan is without doubt the most well rounded, adaptable and inspiring martial artist I have ever had the pleasure to learn from and represent.

Realising over 15 years ago that there were potential weaknesses that were not being addressed in Traditional Wing Chun training, Kevin set about looking at other arts from Muay Thai and Boxing to Greco Roman Wrestling and Russian Sambo before settling with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu under the legendary Mauriciao Gomes and Roger Gracie earning himself a BJJ Black belt within 10 years and becoming a recognised name the world over in Grappling and BJJ tournaments - this more than caters for the risk of being taken down at street level and he doesnt attempt to incorporate groundfighting into his Wing Chun but offers workshops for students to gain a basic level understanding should they wish to supplement their martial arts journey.

The training drills Kamon work on ranging from Clinchwork to Boxing sparring and base level grappling enhance the Wing Chun training of the Kamon students making them very well rounded and experienced in a wide range of skill sets.

Although I feel (for me) the WSLVT is the most 'direct' Wing Chun method ive seen/felt to date, Kamon also offers a very high level of close quarter combat skills to build self confidence and ability to rival any martial art out there.
