Climate change is a real threat to our planet with far-reaching implications for our ecosystems, human health and economic development. Unless significant action is taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, temperatures could rise by 4°C or worse by 2100 (https://zcu.io/Bm7L).
In August 2018, we became Australia's first carbon-neutral martial arts organisation through our NoCO2 Certification with the Carbon Reduction Institute. We now offset all greenhouse gas emissions generated by our operations (such as electricity, staff travel, waste disposal, use of consumables and manufacture of products) through our funding of climate change mitigation projects.

This post is dedicated to all those couples out there whose love for Wing Chun has brought them closer together.
Featured here are Wing Chun couple, Danielle and Thomas, who have said:
"Wing Chun has brought us closer together in many ways. We get to train and practice together, challenge each other, and find out more about each other, such as our combined love of Kung Fu movies, which we didn't know about until we started Wing Chun!"
