Borikay Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 So I decided to go ahead an enroll on a Wing Chun school since I'm having schedule issues (along with other more personal issues) with my current toodii (karate) studies. Its been almost three (3) months since my last practice.I'm both sad and excited, sad because I wil no longer (for the time being) practice my beloved art of toodii, on the other hand I'm very excited about practicing Wing Chun, its been "calling" me for some time now, and its been a natural transition for me.There are two Wing Chun schools close to my location; one very commercial, the other one not-so but I have to yet visit the kwoon.So I'm going to be hangin' around this forum a bit more often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borikay Posted November 20, 2014 Author Share Posted November 20, 2014 Thanks bushido,Second school won't accept students until next year. So that leaves me with the commercial WC school for now. Visited the kwoon awhile back, its not bad, good instructor, I just have a "thing" against business-type commercial schools.I'll give it some thought.

Visited the kwoon awhile back, its not bad, good instructor, I just have a "thing" against business-type commercial schools.I'll give it some thought.Do consider it. There are lots of instructors out there that wouldn't be able to put forth their time to have a school if they didn't run it commercially. If the instructor is a good one, then definitely take the advantage of him being there. Then in a year when things open up at the other school, you'll have some foundation under your belt to go with.I look at it this way: if training is available, then why pass it up? https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marnetmar Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Did you ask each school to demonstrate some WC to you at least?The best WC schools are often very much the "backyard dojo" type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up not enrollingin WC school. Now they are offering some kungfit programa (weight loss and fitness) that really madre me rethink about wether they are in for quality or quantity.My former shinshii went through The trouble of rescheduling clases so he can accomodate my schedule. So im resuming my toodee practice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
