Founded in Hackney in September 1990 by Sifu Garry McKenzie, our focus is on effective technique, guided by open-mindedness and research, rooted in the Yip Man system through the direct lineage of Grand Master Ip Ching.
Our approach is direct and practical, built on core principles such as Economy of Motion and Conservation of Energy. These ideas interconnect, encouraging practitioners to favour directness over complexity.
Come train with us and experience the power, precision, and philosophy of Wing Chun.
Sifu Dean Suett began his martial arts journey at age seven with karate, followed by boxing at eleven. In 2004, he began practicing Wing Chun and quickly developed a passion for it, though later questioned the depth and accuracy of what he was being taught.
In 2009, he met Sifu Garry McKenzie, who addressed his concerns with clarity and depth. He became a student of The Wing Chun School and has since attended multiple seminars, successfully completing both lower and upper Siu Nim Tao levels.
