About your instructor

I have been studying, training and instructing Wing Chun and health and fitness for over 14 years. I began my training with the National Wing Chun Association under Andrew Cameron (ving tsun) and Tony Hollander (Wing Chun). After that I studied full time at the Jim Fung Academy of Wing Chun in Sydney, Australia under Sifu Jim Fung and Richard Antatoni (Tsui Seung Tin) where I gained my Wing Chun Instructor qualification.

On my return to the U.K., I have since spent time training with various other Wing Chun systems including Alan Gibson (Wing Chun Federation - Wong Shun Leung) and Clive Potter (Wong Shun Leung).

Being a keen traveller I have spent several years living abroad and touring countries such as India, Thailand, Burma, Laos, Malaysia, also trekking in the Himalayas (Nepalese region), the Sierra Nevada (Spain) and mountains of Turkey. I now use this experience and knowledge to run courses advising people on safe travel prior to their trips abroad.

In the early 1990’s I was a Territorial Soldier serving with the R.E.M.E. participating in many outward bound activities including climbing, abseiling, canoeing and mountain craft, leaving the forces to travel and live abroad.

I now work part time for West Sussex Council as a Sports Development Officer delivering sporting activities for young people and as a British Military Fitness instructor based in Brighton and Hove developing and delivering fitness sessions, in addition to running Concepts.
