So glad I was able to find Wing Chun Dynamics and Sifu Ken by doing a local search. After going through two ACL surgeries in the past, I wasn't sure if I could ever do martial arts, but Wing Chun doesn't put any stress on my knees, and the atmosphere at this school is very supportive of all skill levels. Great school/classmates/Sifu. Wish I had found out about them much earlier. read more

I've just started studying with Sifu Ken ( about 3 weeks) and the first lesson was demonstrably different than previous attempts at Wing Chun and akido. How? Despite there being a range of experience levels in the class, Sifu Ken and the more experienced couldn't have been more welcoming and within the first five minutes have you actually learning. I've also noticed that Sifu Ken "meets you where you are" but also sets an expectation that you progress by attending class AND making it a daily practice. he expects you to show up at class with questions -- not just showing up. read more

I know sifu Ken personally and have trained with him in the past. He is good people and very skilled in Wing Chun. He has much to offer his students. Train hard and consistently and you cant go wrong. You also cant go wrong when you get to know him. Louis J. read more

Wing Chun Dynamics is a great place to learn martial art. Sifu Ken is one of the best. He has extensive experience and deep understanding of Wing Chun and martial art in general. Ken also traveled around the world to visit different schools to broaden his understanding and to improve the Wing Chun system. If you are new to martial art, please at least give 3 months of training to gain an understanding and to experience its benefit for your body and mind. P.S.

Sifu Ken is an excellent teacher who is not only highly experienced in Wing Chun systems thanks to his past traveling and exposure to various Wing Chun lineages in the world but also passionate about teaching and sharing his skills with us. He is willing to stay after class to answer questions and make us actually practice the techniques beyond class time to make sure we understand. Whether you are highly interested in Wing Chun, or you want to develop effective and practical self-defense skills, or you just want to have a good work out for health benefits, Wing Chun Dynamics is a great place for you. read more

Being at Wing Chun Dynamics has changed many aspects of my life. It is amazing what Wing Chun teaches you besides punching and kicking. It teaches you the power of your mind and the relationship your body has with it. It teaches you to use and think of your body as a unit through controlled breathing and body mechanics. It teaches you to be one instead of parts of you having individual tasks. Think, gestalt. Sifu Ken provides excellent instruction that is immediately applicable to the drills you perform. He shows you how you can use your body as a whole and why it is imperative to do so. The students and teachers here are also great to be around and the culture is friendly, safe and supportive. I highly recommend this class to anyone looking to enhance their quality of life and learn some effective self defense techniques. read more

I'm still very happy to be training at Wing Chun Dynamics. Sifu Ken is an excellent instructor. The more you are willing to put your time and energy into the system, the more time and energy Sifu Ken will put into you. For example, I had a business trip abroad in February. I told Ken that I'd be looking to train at other Wing Chun schools while abroad. So for a few weeks beforehand, he made sure that I was getting extra attention and focus to get me ready to touch hands with another school. Again in May 2012, I told him that I would be traveling to Seattle to participate in a competition. Sifu Ken spent a great deal of time preparing me for that competition (came home with gold & silver medals, btw). In anticipation of another competition in a few weeks, Sifu Ken has been giving up a lot of time on weekends and Friday nights in order to provide extra training to those of us competing. All of this with no additional cost besides my regular tuition. As long as I was willing to commit to participating and practicing, Sifu Ken was willing to commit to providing training and instruction. Sifu Ken also attempts to foster a really fun environment. We have regular events where families and friends are invited to have some food and enjoy some merriment all within the context of building the Wing Chun family. There's the annual summer picnic, holiday parties, and a few others. Of course, learning Wing Chun is still at the center of all of this. The class structure has changed slightly in my 1+ year here. But that's because there has been a growth of students (which is excellent). The classes are all still great work outs for the mind and body. The great thing about this system is that the workouts are as tough as they were when I first started. They are just differently tough. Sifu Ken is a seemingly endless well of knowledge when it comes to fighting and Wing Chun. If you are looking for a place to learn self defense as well as learn more about yourself, this is the place to go. read more

Been wanting to practice Wing Chun for some time and it's everything I wanted in a martial arts school. The classes are physically challenging and beginner friendly. The students who have been training for a while are helpful to us beginners and are very nice. Sifu Ken is an amazing instructor, explains fundamentals in a way that we can understand, creates a fun and safe atmosphere, and provides constructive feedback to all students. I feel very comfortable training here and love learning this style of kung fu. I highly recommend this studio! read more

I was looking for a place to learn WingChun and I found WingChun Dynamic (WCD). I signed up the class immediately after the free trial class because I know this is what I want. Sifu Ken has very clear and unique understanding of WingChun system and decades of teaching experience. There is no lack of training techniques and you learn new things from every class. The culture is very friendly, relaxed but also hardworking. The class is very inclusive for different levels and good mix of different techniques and practice. The fees are reasonable and flexible (you can pay for each class or buy batches). I really enjoy the class and would highly recommend WCD if you want to continue or start learn WingChun and martial arts. read more

Studying Wing Chun has changed my life. I'm an independent contractor working in high tech - a generally stressful combination. Through mental and physical conditioning, wing chun has provided me with an outlet and a means to maintain my sanity. Under Sifu Ken Chun, learning is done at your own pace. You can be as laid back or proactive when it comes to learning the forms and techniques. Sifu Ken cultivates a fun, friendly atmosphere where everyone feels welcome. I can't overstate the friendliness of the environment. In the past I've studied in studios where it was all business, focused, very intense. There are periods in each class where this is the goal but the students and the vibe always returns to fun and friendly. read more

No one is as dedicated or as knowledgeable a Win Chun instructor in the area than Sifu Ken. He is more than an instructor, he is a MASTER.

Signed up for Wing Chun Dynamics 2 weeks ago and have attended every class available to beginners. It's been an overall great experience, the instructors are extremely knowledgable and patient. I wanted to learn Wing Chun for its self defense, breathing techniques and for the mental and physical conditioning. Looking forward to leveling up! read more

On and off, I had over 9 years of experience learning Wing Chun. Prior to training with Sifu Ken at Wing Chun Dynamics for the past 3 years, I trained at another Wing Chun school in the same (Yip Man) lineage in San Francisco. I picked Wing Chun out of all martial arts because as a tiny woman I believe this is the most effective technique for self-defense and protecting myself in life-and-death situations. It also helps me develop physical and mental power. Wing Chun forms and techniques may not be as entertaining to watch as many other martial arts because they focus on effectiveness, not prettiness. At Wing Chun Dynamics, Sifu Ken emphasizes the importance of balancing yin and yang. The training covers power, dynamic tension, breathing, foundation, footwork, structure, angle precision, forms, wooden dummy and a lot more. What I've found the most impressive about Sifu Ken is thanks to his engineering background, he is very skilled at explaining complex Wing Chun techniques in an analytical way, often by using diagrams and props, followed by demonstrations of effective techniques and student partner drills. This may be very hard to find in other schools. Sifu Ken has helped me understand Wing Chun is a life-long martial art--you can learn to become better every day. Traditional Hong Kong Wing Chun schools don't have structured classes or curriculums. That means there is no hand-holding for new students, who are to learn as much as they can by learning from more senior students. Wing Chun Dynamics has structured curriculums to help students advance from one level to the next. This is not a commercialized school. Students here don't care to have belts or sashes to show others which level we're in. They care about techniques, work-out, and being able to kick some butt on the street if they have to. To learn the cool stuff, students need to first learn the basic techniques. If you think you can pay to learn wooden dummy or chi sao on Day 1, this is not your place. Sifu is keen on building a Wing Chun family. At the school, every student is expected to help each other to advance. Outside of classes, we have events and parties for interested students to get together. A bonus point is that Sifu Ken encourages students to participate in competition to gain experience. Prior to each competition, Sifu Ken spends extra hours every weekend (at no extra cost) to train all competitors at the school, teaching us more advanced techniques and helping us be best prepared for the competition. read more

This is the best Wing Chun class. Sifu Ken is very nice and professional. Every class is very awesome and passionate. If you want to learn the real Wing Chun, this is the right place. read more

Check this place out if you're looking for a martial arts studio! I'm so glad I did. The studio is an amazingly welcoming place--Sifu Ken has students from every skill level and I've never felt intimidated as a complete beginner knowing nothing about martial arts. Chances are you will feel safe to learn here while still being adequately challenged, wherever you're at. Chun's background in Wing Chun is also very extensive and not something you will find in other studios. I've learned so much already, and the emphasis on the art and tradition of this style is not overlooked in training. Tuition is a great value and includes online access to learning materials. Try it! read more

Training with Sifu Ken Chun has been interesting and fun. Interesting how, well Sifu Ken teaches in a way where traditionally you have to find out the meaning in each exercise. Sifu Ken explains why and how it is better. I find Sifu Ken's knowledge very insightful. The fun part, most of us are usually stressed from work or worry, the training and the drills Sifu Ken teaches us are really practical. I mean something you can use out in the real world to defend yourself when need be. Plus, the students in Sifu Ken's class all are very helpful and friendly. We are like a family. read more

The culture of this place is great.The concepts,explanations & skills are clearly taught.SIfu KEN and his team are very helpful and they put in their efforts to make sure the students fully understands the right forms and the spirit of wing chun. I truly enjoy every single class and practice with other fellow students. read more

I've been training here a little over a month now and I like the small class sizes because the instructors can be more attentive to my needs. Since the class is geared towards older students (age wise), my comfort level is high as I get to learn with people who are generally the same size / age as I am. Most schools only train for about 45 mins because they have many classes throughout the day. Not here though, it is primarily 1 class and it lasts for 1.5 hours. In that time period you can learn a lot and also break a sweat as the instructors push you to do more than you normally would. With modern technology, the monthly tuition grants you access to online videos to help you memorize and practice the forms on your own time. If you are eager to learn Wing Chun, this is the school for you, but you'll only be as good as the effort you put into it. read more

I was out of the martial arts circuit for years and had taken Wing Chun many years ago.

Great culture and environment at the school! read more

My only regret is that do to work I don't get to make it to classes as much as I want. read more
