@clare's zumba gold class

Welcome to your very first step into the Wing Chun Kung Fu system and our organisation Wing Chun International. It is important to note our Beginners Programme is in fact known as "Phase 1 -Beginners" Phase 1- Beginners on average takes 8 months to complete before moving on to Phase 2 known as "Phase 2 - Intermediate". We have designed and structured our programmes and lessons in such a way for students to gain the knowledge and tools to protect themselves from day one, with each lesson and rotation building on the last rotation. We do this by breakdown Phase 1 - Beginners into a two month rotation curriculum where we repeat the same programme every 2 months, 4 times to make the 8 months. Each time the student repeats a rotation his/her;s understanding and ability will improve plus each grade has a slight different focus and testing. This means in Phase 1 - Beginners we have 4 levels or better known as student Grades 1, 2, 3 & 4. Here within this online lesson we are primary focused on what the student MUST know in order to pass each of the rotations with this lesson being the 1st Student Grade. We do highly recommend student upgrade if not already and purchase the whole of the Phase 1 - Beginners programme rather than just purchase what they will be tested within each grades.
