# JM Wing Chun
JM Wing Chun is an authentic Wing Chun kung fu school located in Highgate, North London, offering traditional martial arts training rooted in the lineage of Yip Man. The school serves London residents seeking to develop practical self-defence skills, improve fitness, and join a supportive martial arts community.
Led by Sifu James Marsh, a 3rd generation student of Yip Man trained directly under Wan Kam Leung (including a year-long immersion in Hong Kong), the school emphasises genuine technique over superficial credentials. Classes run weekly on Monday evenings at Jackson's Lane Theatre, just one minute from Highgate Tube station on the Northern Line, making the training highly accessible.
What distinguishes JM Wing Chun is its direct lineage to Yip Man—one of Wing Chun's most respected masters—and the instructor's deep commitment to authentic practice. Rather than commercialised "fitness classes," students learn the classical Siu Nim Tao syllabus and practical applications from someone who has trained extensively in Hong Kong. The school attracts people seeking real self-defence knowledge alongside the mental discipline and focus that Wing Chun cultivates. With a perfect 5.0 Google rating and emphasis on building genuine community rather than simply attracting numbers, JM Wing Chun appeals to serious practitioners who value substance and proper lineage.
