Wing Chun was created during time of war between the Ching and the Ming dynastic in 1600s China. It’s a high level warrior system to counter all other systems base on maximum efficiency of time, space and energy (original Triad). Ng Mui was not a person, but a Shaolin combat theory. I am writing an article on it. Yim Wing Chun, the girl, represented the new system. Ng Nui (Shaolin 5 combat theory) gave birth to Yim Wing Chun’s fighting art (new system of maximum efficiency in combat). YWC is a secret code. Yim means to be discreet or to be secretive. Wing means to talk or praise. Chun is the word Spring which symbolize rebirth.Together the word means to be secretive and keep talking and praising about their rebirth of the Ming Dynasty. The nun symbolize the roots of Wing Chun which is Shaolin.

WHAT THEY SAID ABOUT US
EXCELLENT INSTRUCTION
Sifu Tony Koleczek has experience in multiple martial arts disciplines and several Wing Chun lineages that gives him a unique frame of reference for teaching that he passes on to his students. Very real-world instruction with realistic sparring and fighting scenarios.
REALISTIC SELF DEFENSE TRAINING
I'm really having a good experience learning Wing Chun from Sifu Tony. The classes and uniforms (polo and t-shirt) are really affordable. There are a total of 4 classes per week at 2 hours per class. We have 2 of our classes at a student's house and the rest at a local park. There are no contracts, the students and the Sifu are very friendly, and I feel myself progressing steadily.
THE RIGHT FIT
This was one of the best decisions I have ever made. After checking out all the Wing Chun schools in my vicinity, I felt the best about Koleczek Wing Chun. Sifu Tony is honest, straight forward committed to his students. I see why they love and respect him. If you're looking for the best teacher in the area to learn Wing Chun, look no further.
1 ON 1 INSTRUCTION
I'm very impressed with Sifu Tony’s expertise in Wing Chun and his teaching style. If you are looking for Wing Chun with a lot of 1-on-1 time with Sifu then this is the class for you.
