A TRADITIONAL CHINESE MARTIAL ARTS SCHOOL COMMITTED TO MAKING THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE TO HAND DOWN TO OUR CHILDREN.
My Life in Wutan: Like many people I started Martial arts thinking that I was going to be able to attain the abilities of all the movies stars I had ever seen over the years. I began my Martial Arts training oblivious to the life changing abilities that it held secret. And for many years I trained still believing in all the fantasies I had created. Wutan is a place that asks for nothing. If you wish to see the meaning of the skills it teaches, you only have to believe and practice whole heartedly. Without the skills I have learned form my 17 Years of being in Wutan, I would not have been able to attain all that I have. I have been fortunate enough in my life to have had the opportunity to excel in both Martial Arts and in the world of
	Commercial IT. I attribute these abilities to the sole teachings of Wutan. My whole adult life has been spent immersed in the philosophy and practice of these skills. They have enabled me to discipline myself and push myself to achieve great results. I have found Love in Wutan in the form of my wife (Joanne Kitchener), and had the pleasure of training with many loyal and talented Wutan members. I am proud to have been selected as a UK disciple of Master Wu, but never forget that the man who made all this possible has sacrificed his whole life in the pursuit of making others healthier and more contented.
