Why train with Sifu Dennis online

Live, not prerecorded

Most online Wing Chun is a video library. Every minute here is live with Sifu Dennis watching you and correcting you on the spot.

The Sifu himself

You train with Sifu Dennis, not an assistant or a forum. One teacher who knows your training from lesson to lesson.

A plan between lessons

Leave every lesson with a written practice plan, and send short practice clips for feedback.

Lineage you can trace

Ip Man → Ip Ching → Chris Damiano → Dennis Moreland. Dennis has also trained personally with Ip Ching in Hong Kong.

Who it's for

Complete beginners

Never trained? Start from stance and structure, at your pace. No partner or equipment needed.

Adults 40+

Wing Chun relies on structure and position, not size or strength. Lessons are paced to your body.

Practical self-defense

Taught by an instructor with judo, kenpo, kickboxing and Kali experience who has trained military and police.

Other styles and lineages

Clean up your forms, solve specific problems, or add Wing Chun principles to what you already train.

No school nearby

Get real instruction from a qualified Sifu wherever you live, instead of piecing it together from videos.

Busy schedules

No fixed class times, no commute. Book the times that fit your week.

How it works

1. Free fit call

Optional 15-minute call to talk about your goals and make sure online lessons are right for you.

2. Book

Pick a time and pay online. Your Zoom link arrives by email.

3. Train live

Warm-up, review, new material, and live corrections on camera, with time for your questions.

4. Practice

Leave with a written practice plan. Record your session and send short practice videos for feedback.

Setup: a device on a stand, about 6×6 ft of space, comfortable clothes. Honest note: Wing Chun is a contact art, and skills like chi sau are best felt in person. Online lessons build a strong foundation in forms, structure, footwork and drills.

Your training path

Lessons follow the traditional Ip Man Wing Chun system, adapted to your level and goals.

  1. Foundation: stance, structure, centerline, the straight punch, and Siu Nim Tao (first form).
  2. Movement: footwork, turning, and Chum Kiu (second form).
  3. Recovery & advanced: Biu Jee (third form) and applications.
  4. Wooden dummy and weapons: Muk Yan Jong, long pole and butterfly knives, for committed students.

Partner skills such as chi sau can be introduced with a training partner on camera or refined in person at West County Wing Chun.

About Sifu Dennis Moreland

Ip Man → Ip Ching → Chris Damiano → Dennis Moreland

Dennis started martial arts in 1982 at age eight. In 2008 he began training under Sifu Chris Damiano, a direct student of Ip Ching, and he remains a faithful student of Sifu Damiano, continuing to train and learn privately.

In March 2011, Dennis opened West County Wing Chun in Valley Park, Missouri, and has grown a large following through group and private lessons, with a focus on friendship, family, adult learning, and a love of the art.
