Welcome to MT! I like the sound of Outback Wing Chun. But I see that there is a real lack of grappling in your experience. Should probably fix that.

Hey Steve, the school I am with now incorporates some flowing Aikido type techniques so hopefully may help with the grappling. Outback Wing Chun is a cool name although unfortunately the personal attitude and behaviour of the man in charge meant that we could no longer hang around. Just like the church of Scientology it’s not for everyone.

Welcome Pat. I'm curious what Jeet So Do is.
Is it tied to JKD somehow?

Have been to Foshan twice now once for Ip Chun's 90th and the second time in April last year. Will have to do a post on each trip if you think there would be interest.

Just realised I did not make it clear i had made that trip edit.
