Steve Hunt 2016 Student of the Year

Steve Hunt 2016 Student of the Year

For many years we have awarded a member of the UKWCKFA the Student of the Year trophy. The winner for 2016 was a simple decision and went to Steve Hunt of the Rayleigh school.

Steve came to Wing Chun later in life then most, and has struggled at times to get to grips with the Art. However, he is a always smiling (and apologising to his training partners, actually just everyone!) and is not one to quit.

Steve had to work particularly hard to pass the second UKWCKFA grading. He took it upon himself to use the Rayleigh HQ on Sundays when no classes were on. His enthusiasm finally gathered a small core of students for extra training. This group went on to successfully pass the test. 

Not content with this he wanted other colleagues to take the test and kept the Sunday commitment going. He selflessly helped others to pass the test by giving them the chance for extra practice. We all know that it takes a lot of effort to get people motivated and he did just that.

He has built a great class spirit and every person agreed on how much he deserved the award. All martial arts schools would love a student with his nature and we are just lucky Steve came to us.

The trophy is a large cup, Steve is seen here with something to keep…

Just a short extract from a recent online zoom presentation. As always this is just an extract from a far longer presentaton. As such it is possible to take this content out of context. The discussion preceeding, and following, not included. For this reason we cannot interact and get into discussions as it was most likely covered in the full presentation.In this UKWCKFA zoom session James Sinclair discussed the use of elbow strikes at various ranges through Chi Sau to Sparring.Our Zoom session in 2025 are currently discussing the Siu Nim Tao in great details. We expect to be on this topic for a couple of months. We recently spent 4 months going through the wooden dummy as we demonstrated the form, the many variations and application permutations that are possible.We welcome new open minded subscribers.
