This is American street-fighting technology, the way it is supposed to be. We've taken Bruce Lee's traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu and made it our own, modernized it, refined it and above all, Americanized it. We've also integrated original Bare-knuckle boxing concepts into our approach from a time when boxing was hardcore street-fighting along with modern physics and geometry to evolve our practice to a whole new level.
You could call what we do Wing Chun, but you wouldn't fully do it justice. You could call it Jeet Kune Do, but you'd be further off the mark there too. If you just called it "street-fighting" you'd miss the meticulous scientific-based analytical training that goes into our approach. We just call it Wing Chun most of the time, but Advanced Fighting Concepts seems to describe it better. To really understand, you've got to experience it. We are located in San Clemente, CA (Orange County).
Bare knuckle boxing has a large influence in the development of my approach to martial arts.

I thought it was traditional wing chun and that most other wing chun schools did the same thing. It wasn't until years later that I found out have wrong I was. It was then that I realized that I had found something that was really unique. Since then, I've had... Read Full Story
Ben was attending St. Francis Xavier College in Hong Kong when he began to study Wing Chun in 1958.

While in the US, lacking formal instruction, he and several of his friends would meet in San Francisco. These meetings provided some very strenuous workouts allowing them to keep their understanding of... Read Full Story

I have spent the last eleven years submerged in the study of martial arts. My emphasis has always been on Bruce Lee and his art of Jeet Kune Do. Through his example, I have extended my studies to many different arts, philosophies, etc. Through these studies, I have come across several instances of passages, ideas, and philosophies that have been attributed to Bruce Lee that were clearly someone else's work.

His forward-thinking approach to street fighting is considered to be one of the most advanced approaches to date. He pioneered today's concept of four different ranges. The four ranges are Kicking, Punching, Trapping, and Grappling. Range is inherent... Read Full Story
