About UCT Academy Amsterdam<\/h2>\n

In 2003 we opened the doors of the first UCT martial arts Academy in Amsterdam Noord. The UCT Academy in Amsterdam Noord was the first of the now eleven schools in the Netherlands. In recent years we have developed various programs for different martial arts, such as Practical Wing Chun, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Escrima and the popular kids program Jing Wu Kids. We also offer various corporate training programs.<\/p>\n

The philosophy has remained unchanged all along: a healthy mind in a healthy body.<\/p>\n

Kung Fu – Practical Wing Chun<\/h2>\n

The main goal of the Practical Wing Chun<\/a> system is to teach the most practical self-defense possible to students. Apart from the self-defense aspect, at the UCT Academy in Amsterdam, much attention is also paid to the students’ mental resilience, health and for their overall fitness level. The classes are led by Sifu Benno Wai.<\/p>\n

Through two of his closest personal friends in the world of Wing Chun, Sifu Martin Brogaard and Sifu Pui Yee, he came into contact with GM Wan Kam Leung in 2007. GM Wan Kam Leung<\/a> is widely regarded as the best Wing Chun practitioner of our time (regardless of lineages) Immediately after becoming acquainted with GM Wan Kam Leung, Sifu Benno Wai was accepted by him as a private apprentice and since then he (Sifu Benno) has been visiting GM Wan Kam Leung two to three times a year in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Sifu Benno Wai has also mastered the Practical Wing Chun system. Siu Nim Tao, Cham Kiu, Biu Jee, Mok Yan Chong, Luk Dim Poon Kwan, Bart Cham Dao and the Iron Shirt Hei Gung (Qi Gong, Chi Kung) developed especially for Wing Chun.<\/p>\n

With this, Sifu Benno Wai has joined a very small select group of Practical Wing Chun Masters.[\/vc_column_text] <\/div>\n<\/div>
