James Cleary
Instructor James Cleary trained in a number of other martial arts for over 20 years before enrolling at the International Wing Chun Academy on the Gold Coast in 2003. A graduate of the Academy’s full-time Certificate IV Course in Wing Chun Instruction, he became an instructor in 2005. He established his own school, Logan Wing Chun Academy, in 2005.
Says Inst. James: “I have been training in the art of Wing Chun for over six years and can only describe my Wing Chun journey as amazing. Throughout my training, I am constantly challenged both by the mental and physical aspects of this great art. “The opportunities made available to me after completing the Academy’s full-time course are numerous. Sifu Jim’s Wing Chun has changed my life on many levels and that of my students as well. I have a genuine passion for traditional Wing Chun Kung Fu and continue to promote the authentic art as passed down by Grandmaster Jim Fung.”
Inst. James trains regularly at the Gold Coast Academy under the instruction of Chief Instructors Richard Antonini and Ivan Howe.
