# Wing Chun-UK
Wing Chun-UK is a martial arts training centre based in Tunbridge Wells that teaches Wing Chun Kung Fu, a traditional Chinese martial art focused on practical street self-defence rather than competition fighting. Founded over a decade ago by Sifu Tony Hollander and Sifu Ed Pettitt, the school draws on their combined 60+ years of training and teaching experience across three distinct Wing Chun styles.
The business serves individuals of all backgrounds and experience levels—from complete beginners to seasoned practitioners—who want to develop genuine self-defence capabilities alongside physical and mental benefits. Their inclusive approach welcomes newcomers with a complimentary first session, removing barriers to entry and allowing prospective students to experience the training firsthand.
What distinguishes Wing Chun-UK is their structured, progressive syllabus that systematically builds technique mastery and situational awareness for real-world protection. Beyond self-defence skills, their training develops improved strength, stability, coordination and self-confidence whilst providing respite from daily stress. The school operates classes across two locations—Sevenoaks, Kent and Lewes, East Sussex—making their teaching accessible to the wider South East region.
Their instructors combine deep technical knowledge with a commitment to personalised guidance, ensuring each student progresses at an appropriate pace regardless of starting ability. This combination of expert instruction, practical self-defence focus, and welcoming community environment positions Wing Chun-UK as a distinctive choice for those seeking authentic martial arts training with tangible life benefits.
