I'm going to change everything you thought you knew about fighting.
I'm going to change everything you thought you knew about fighting. I'm going to show you a way of looking at a fight as a conversation. One where questions are asked and answers are given. You will be able to cut through irrelevance and pinpoint only the essential facts of a fight. This change will open the door to overcome larger, stronger opponents. And because of this change, you will never be the same. I GUARANTEE IT! ~Sifu Adam Williss

Here I am with my main man Zach. So proud of this kid. Such a leader, even at 15. Does the right thing. Makes great grades. Stands up for others. Kicks ass and doesn't take names. Too humble for that. In addition to his own training, he is also "Coach Zach" to our little dragons ages 5-10. Commands the room. Handles a full class of kids with ease. It's a great honor and privilege to be his sifu!

The art of Wing Chun is based on the idea that simplicity is the ultimate sophistication. It's a philosophy that tells you to let go of the inessentials and simply focus on your priorities. But simplifying your thoughts and actions are not simple. In fact, it's one of the most difficult things you'll ever try to do. Yet, the process of simplification is also one of the most worthy. It changes everything. A challenge is no longer a challenge. A conflict is no longer a conflict. A punch is no longer a punch. A fight is no longer a fight. When you learn to simplify, you can transcend what things appear to be and see them for what they really are. You clarity as you simplify. What once seemed chaotic now becomes logical. You establish a goal or a centerline and anything not directly between you and your goal becomes irrelevant (chasing hands). Simplicity is brilliance and I can think of no better process of discovering universal truth than through the martial art of Wing Chun. You name it, Wing Chun changes everything." ~Sifu Adam Williss (adamwilliss.com)

"Wing Chun is an internal martial art. It begins with Siu Nim Tao, a static posture training method known as Zhan Zhuang in the internal arts. The primary purpose of the postures in Siu Nim Tao are to train the feeling of connectedness into the brain and nervous system, as it is easier to cultivate this feeling standing still than moving. We have several major physical connections we train including the ground, knees, waist, elbows, shoulders, neck and eyes. A student works this posture and trains Siu Nim Tao until a feeling of unity develops. After this has been achieved, the student begins to move while paying attention to maintaining this unity in motion. This is when Chum Kiu is trained so the student learns how to move the body with this same unity." ~Sifu Adam Williss

"The world is full of mediocrity. What the world needs is more quality. If you're going to do something, do it right. Commit yourself to being excellent at it. What this means is that you're going to have to sacrifice in order to get there. You're going to have to do what others are simply unwilling to do. Persevere, work hard, dedicate yourself and respect your teacher's advice. Learn to ignore the suffering you must go through in order to accept the price you must pay for excellence." -Sifu Adam Williss (adamwilliss.com) #excellence

Update on Zach's story -
He didn't even tell his parents. We had to tell them. Zach just said that "he didn't want any praise because he just did the right thing."
After finding out his wrote to us...
"I am very proud of Zach for having the courage and confidence to stand up for someone else. Also, it seems he stayed under control and didn't respond with an overpowering attack. He was dynamic with the situation and was a great example for the Wing Chun system. Most Importantly, You guys have done an amazing job not only providing Zach with the Physical Skill Set to respond automatically, but have taught him Courage, Judgement, Self-Control and Humility.We cannot thank you enough!!! We are surely Blessed with You being part of Our Family"
