Sifu Eric Wilson is the longest training member of the UKWCKFA and has seen it grow from the early days with Master Sinclair's first teacher. Sifu Eric Wilson is one of the most affable people you could hope to meet. He is remarkably disciplined in all areas of his life and his physical conditioning is a testament to that fact. Body conditioning a part of the senior instructor requirements

Eric began his training in Chelmsford, Essex in 1983 and later also trained at Master Sinclair's early clubs in Benfeet and Basildon. He rapidly moved forward and became an assistant teacher. He taught and inspired a number of the senior instructors such as Martin Burton and Paul Godfrey who still look to him for inspiration and help.

Eric Wilson is a man who takes the lead and sets the standard for others to follow. He (with Sifu Phillips) was the first student to pass the Third, Fourth and Fith level grading in the UKWCKFA syllabus. Hew is still one of only 4 people to have taken and passed the 5th level grading since 1985. Our grading syllabus beyond level 3 does not reflect knowledge, but ability. Student continue to learn the art regarldless but students put themsleves in for the challenges of grading. Eric Wilson and Mark Phillips two of the most talented Wing Chun teachers in the UK

Sifu Wilson's coaching has produced numerous good quality students who owe a great deal to his unselfish attitude in passing on his knowledge. However, his classes are not for the faint hearted. He does not suffer fools and his regimen requires that ALL student behave in a manner expected of a martial artist at all times. He is strong on discipline and teaches slowly requiring that each student appreciate the skill and devote time to its mastery before moving on.

Sifu Wilson has never taught to earn money, he teaches to pass on the art the UKWCKFA have passed on. He is happy with a small intimate class of dedicated students. Although he has not taught his own classes for a number of years, he is now considering opening branches in West London. If you are in that vicinity you are in for a great opportunity to learn from a truly pasionate individual who's only agenda is to teach Wing Chun.

Fit as a Flea! Sifu Wilson and Sifu Phillips forged a special freindship that only training and hard work (and the accompanying pain) can bring. They are still hugely respectful of each other and make a formidable team. Eric assisted in the first UKWCKFA MasterClass video 'Pure & Simple' but took a far more active role in the second release 'Wing Chun Wallbag Training'.

In November 2005 Sifu Wilson accompanied Master Sinclair to Hong Kong and Mainland China for the Ving Tsun Athletic Assoc 2nd World Conference. In April 2006 Sifu Wilson received his recognition from the VTAA and is now a permenant member of the VTAA and a Hong Kong recognised teacher of Wing Chun.
