Master Leo Au Yeung is a brilliant teacher with great humour. He explains every move in detail so you obtain clarity and understanding on how to perform them yourself, including gaining insight to what internal Wing Chun is, how energy is generated and how to use the energy wisely against an opponent. The class as a whole and the students individually are very welcoming and even though i have been going for only a short while, i already feel that I am part of the school.Looking forward to learning more at each class and fully absorbing myself in Chinese Kung Fu, Wing Chun.John B.Master Leo Au Yeung is a very skilled and dedicated teacher of Internal Wing Chun.I went to Sifu's Internal Wing Chun Seminar on Saturday 15th December 2018 and it was amazing, the time flew and I learnt about Chi and Internal Chinese Kung fu.This was especially useful as I have only recently joined the school and the Seminar has helped me to hone in on a number of elements to help me improve and provide me with a deeper understanding.I learnt more about what internal Wing Chun is, how to interpret signs from your opponent and the constant flow and expansion of energy which is quite infectious.The transparent syllabus is very helpful and consisted on the day of learning the core skills of level 1:(1.) Holding / Rooting, taking pressure on the body, (2.) Using the body to take pressure on the arms, (3.) Generating upward energy from the body (floating) (4.) Generating downward energy (sinking).The Seminar explained how to generate energy, working the body altogether, understanding body mechanics, relaxing the body, effective breathing techniques and using your core effectively, and how tendons play a key role.How to identify tension in an opponent immediately upon contact, and then uplifting them using the floating technique.The other students are very accommodating and encourage progression, and the feeling of comradery is great and welcoming.I could go on as the Seminar and lessons are quite unique and amazing, come see for your self.

Fortunately for students in the USA, Sigung Leo Au Yeung released instructional videos for all, which are especially useful for the students of Leo's certified instructors. Leo does a great job of giving important context to the techniques taught in his Wing Chun system. More...

I started lessons with Sifu Leo in January 2014. The classes and people are great. Aswell as learning Wing Chun you get great support and make many new friends. Highly recommend private lessons as you learn so much. More...

Been training with Sifu Leo for over a year and I can really see how much I have improved. He teaches internal martial arts with uses energy rather than strength, really useful for woman/smaller people. I feel much more safe and confident in myself since started kung fu as i feel stronger. Im really thankful for all he has thought me. He's the best! More...

I've trained with Leo for c.3 years now and he is an exceptionally skilled teacher. I'm quite a slow learner, but when I had been learning for 2 years I chi sao'd with a number of teachers after and peers of 8+ years from a number of other schools - I was able to at least hold my own against them all, even overcoming a few of them, so it is clear to me that Leo is one of the best Wing Chun teachers in the country - his great skill levels and complete openness help immensely in advancing his students.
His dedication to keep bettering himself despite his already advanced level is also very inspiring and something to aspire to. Finally, the school is like a family - warm and welcoming with regular dinners after class and the occasional big social. The class is diverse and new comers are always made to feel welcome.
P.S. like some fabled old Chinese master, he can actually touch me and make me fly before I can even react - I genuinely wouldn't have believed this if I hadn't experienced it, but Leo's ability to sense and destroy someone's balance in an instant is really quite remarkable.

I have been training with Sifu Leo Yeung at the Wednesday class for over six months and have had an amazing journey so far.
I had not had any experience of any martial arts, apart from a few months kick boxing well over a decade ago, and wanted to try Wing Chun because of its efficiency. I feel really lucky to have found Sifu's branch of Wing Chun as it was the first school I tried and had no idea about internal kung fu but am now really keen to develop and progress. I feel like I've stumbled upon a hidden gem here!
The Classes are great because there are so many students with different skill levels and so gives lots of opportunity to test yourself in a friendly environment. Sifu and more developed students regularly come round as we are partnered up and help with any issues we have in a really supportive way. The whole environment is great because everyone genuinely wants each other to progress.
Sifu is also great at demonstrating the steps of each training method from beginner to advanced whilst still emphasising the importance of training on the fundamentals of the form.
I've really enjoyed studying Wing Chun and although I am away for a while, I can't wait to come back in the summer and train again!
Thanks Sifu!

I've been traning with Sifu Leo Au Yeung for just under 1.5 years now and he has really changed my approach to wing chun. Prior to this I was also training in wing chun in Australia . The club is supportive, friendly and very inclusive; with a weekly after class dinner for students. As a newbie to London, it was really a great to get to know everyone in a friendly setting. Highly recommended! More...

Iv'e been training at Sifu Leo Ay Yeung's Wing chun and chinese kick boxing class for around nine months. I have trained in Wing Chun / Wing Tsun before but this is the first time I've encountered this point of view in Wing Chun and it's fascinating. Sifu Leo runs a friendly, welcoming to all, class and there are plenty of senior students who support & encourage newcomers and regulars alike. More...

Sifu Leo, is a great teacher and explains everything in detail. before joining the class i didnt know what to expect and i went to the trial class as just one off. I thoroughly enjoyed my first class with sifu, and his very different style of martial art- wing chun. The other students are also very passionate to train, supportive to each other and over all it makes a very motivating training session. i go quite regularly now and happy with my progress More...

I have been going to Sifu Leo's classes for a while now. I have to say I am thoroughly enjoying the experience so far!! I have become addicted, going 2-3 times every week. I love learning about the internal aspects of Wing Chun, using subtle body movements to overcome physical force and strength. I feel I learn something new every lesson It is a very unique experience and is definitely more fulfilling for me than learning external arts! It is well-recommended for anyone and the whole club is incredibly friendly and supportive!! More...
