I've seen and heard a little about Wing Chun. I wouldn't mind learning it in the future. However, I am concerned it will be difficult to locate an affordable, genuine teacher.

that's how it is for any proper art now-a-days >.>''



In the shadows beneath the trees he waits.
In the darkness under the moon he plots
In the silence of the night he kills.

Not true...

The trick is to find a martial art which operates under a reputable world/national body.

Kyokushin Karate, Muay Thai, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, TaeKwonDo etc...

There are usually national or world bodies which administer and qualify these teachers. And they are usually in every major city. Which makes genuine teachers easy to find I think. As for affordable...I'm assuming membership to a club is no higher than that of a monthly/weekly gym membership at the most...
