Description:
The purpose of the Johns Hopkins University Wing Chun Kung Fu Club is to train Hopkins students and faculty in the art of Wing Chun Kung Fu, primarily as a means of self-defense and secondly as an art. Our belief is that Wing Chun is an excellent style geared towards practical self-defense.
The JHU Kung Fu Club was started by Dr. Shin Lin (chair of the JHU Biophysics dept.) and Sifu John Clayton in 1988. Sifu Clayton trained for nine years under Master Howard Wong, and for five years under William Cheung, the current Grandmaster of the World Wing Chun Kung Fu Association. Sifu Clayton has had extensive experience with full and hard contact Kung Fu and Karate tournaments and has been the number one professional point tournament Wing Chun fighter in the United States.
The club is currently under the instruction of Sifu Julian Sawyer. He too studied under Grandmaster William Cheung as well as Sifu Clayton.
