The Caterham academy offers WingChun lessons to both adults and children in a fun and professional environment.

The adults evening class runs every Wednesday in studio 2 in de Stafford and caters for all abilities.  You do not need to have had any previous martial arts experience of any particular level of fitness.  Equally those that are experienced martial artists from other styles are also welcome to join and to find out more about this art.
