Steve Hunt 2016 Student of the Year

Steve Hunt 2016 Student of the Year

For many years we have awarded a member of the UKWCKFA the Student of the Year trophy. The winner for 2016 was a simple decision and went to Steve Hunt of the Rayleigh school.

Steve came to Wing Chun later in life then most, and has struggled at times to get to grips with the Art. However, he is a always smiling (and apologising to his training partners, actually just everyone!) and is not one to quit.

Steve had to work particularly hard to pass the second UKWCKFA grading. He took it upon himself to use the Rayleigh HQ on Sundays when no classes were on. His enthusiasm finally gathered a small core of students for extra training. This group went on to successfully pass the test. 

Not content with this he wanted other colleagues to take the test and kept the Sunday commitment going. He selflessly helped others to pass the test by giving them the chance for extra practice. We all know that it takes a lot of effort to get people motivated and he did just that.

He has built a great class spirit and every person agreed on how much he deserved the award. All martial arts schools would love a student with his nature and we are just lucky Steve came to us.

The trophy is a large cup, Steve is seen here with something to keep…

We have noticed that there are a lot of views and revisits to view. May we ask, in all humility, that If you like these clips and want to keep them coming, we would be grateful if you could let us know. A simple 'like' is comparable to a courteous 'thank you' in the online world. Manners cost nothing. Another short extract from the series on Chi Sau we were presenting in our online teaching sessions. We have well over 400 1/2 hour videos, they are great and a superb resource. No hype or self promotion just discussions on the Art.Please accept this is but a small extract from a far longer discussion and can easily be taken out of context. Before you say would would do 'this or that', the other person can always have answers for anwers 'this and that' too. That is the enjoyment of training. Because this is but an extract, we will not enter into any dicussion as the points people make were often, if not always, covered in other parts of the discussion.For those interested there only a couple of weeks left to join the classes run personally by James Sinclair. However, if you are already familiar, and have trained in the Art, you would be welcome to start at any time under his guidance. James teaches in Leicester, St Neots, Bedford and at the Rayleigh Wing Chun National HQ.#chisau #wingchun #kungfu #ukwckfa #wingchunleicester #wingchunbedford #wingchunrayleigh #martialarts #wingchunstneots #stickyhands ...

Another little extract from our online Zoom sessions. Here we discuss the Tahn Sau in double Chi Sau.Is it practical who knows? However, it becomes a unique skill within the Art. The skill of application of any stylised technique is to see it under different crcumstances.If you like these extracts please 'like' it.As always this is but a short extract from a far longer discussion and the context is easy to misinterpret. We do hope you enjoy it, and take the time to 'like' as this may encourage us to release more. ... See MoreSee Less
