Sifu Andy has been training in martial arts for twenty five years. He began his martial arts journey training Kyu Shin Do Karate, which he studied for seven years in his home town of Northampton from the age of 8. He also trained in Tae Kwon Do. Sifu Andy continued expanding and enriching his interest in martial arts and middle eastern philosophies with the study of Tai chi, Chi Gung, Yoga, Buddhism, Taoism and meditation.

 

In 2007 Sifu Andy began his most significant martial arts training, by starting Wing Chun under the EWTO and the instruction of Alun Gold and Sifu Scott. Sifu Andy immersed himself into his training, regularly going on week-long intensive courses with his instructor and also training with Grand Master Kernspecht in Germany and the UK, as well as visiting Master Andrew Cameron on a regular basis. Sifu Andy began learning to assist in both children and adults classes, spending up to 20 hours a week training. By the end of 2008, he left his engineering career of eleven years to work full time at the WCI Northampton before taking over in 2011.

 

Sifu Andy is dedicated in getting the best from his students.
He believes in installing valuable life skills in his Little Dragons and Junior Warrior students, as well as giving confidence, fitness and a new outlook on life to his adult students. His dedication shines through his love of teaching weekly group classes, private lessons as well as his own progression of the Wing Chun System.
