We are known as one of the premier associations for building the Body, Mind and Energy though the Arts of Wing Tjun and Taiji, With schools in over 18 countries worldwide.

IWKA founder, Sifu Sergio Pascal Iadarola has studied Chinese Martial Arts intensively. He has combined his 30 years experience and extensive research into the history, philosophy, concepts and principles of Chinese martial arts, with the most up-to-date Western teaching methods.

Furthermore, by putting the pieces of the various lineages of Wing Chun found in China and Southeast Asia together, IWKA is the most complete available Wing Chun system to date, yielding results never before thought possible in students worldwide.

The aim of the IWKA is to spread the authentic IWKA Wing Tjun system throughout the world, as handed down in the direct lineage from it’s founders until the present day.
At the IWKA we value high teaching standards. We have no “secrets” and our curriculum offers a very structured way to learn Wing Tjun Kung Fu.
The Wing Tjun we teach differs from the majority of other schools and lineages, in the way that we don’t rely on localised muscular strength.
Instead, we utilise sensitivity, footwork, structure, concepts and principles to deal with attacks that are delivered by stronger, and/or faster people.
We advocate the “soft” approach to Wing Tjun due to its virtually limitless possibilities. The IWKA also offer a unique, systemized structure to train your tendons. Strong tendons not only support a longer and healthier life, but are also very important in self-defense when dealing with brute/strong, muscular force from your opponent.
Force against force (i.e. direct blocks instead of neutralisation and redirection of power) go only so far and fail when the opponent is stronger. The soft approach however can be improved upon and utilised for a whole lifetime by anyone. Regardless of size, strength, gender or age.
Our Wing Tjun, due to its soft approach, is very direct, ‘aggressive’ and devastating in its real-life application. Accordingly, our motto is “Less is More”.

IWKA CYPRUS is an official school of the International Wing Tjun Kung Fu Association (IWKA) Also known as the Internal Wisdom and Knowledge Association.

OUR INSTRUCTORS

Owner of IWKA CYPRUS, Serif Mehmet

Serif started his Wing Chun journey in 1992 under the WSL Lineage and then later went on to train under the Leung Ting Wing Tsun system. When he moved from the UK to Cyprus he opened up his own school, until he was asked to join a large WingTsun organization in May 2016, becoming a private student and being appointed to run his school in Cyprus Kyrenia as a representative of the organisation as the chief instructor. In May 2017 Serif decided to leave the organisation and join the IWKA under the private instruction of Sifu Mauro Gibin (7 master grade) and is now the official IWKA licensed school for Cyprus.

Co-Owner of IWKA CYPRUS – Assistant / Kids instructor, Sarah Mehmet

Initially a UK qualified nursery teacher Sarah has an extensive background of teaching and working with children. She decided to change careers when her husband, Serif Mehmet opened his own Wing Chun school, and she started to learn under his instruction, so that she was able to assist in teaching the kids classes. In May 2016 she joined the same organisation as her husband Serif, under private instruction and was appointed to be the official assistant/kids instructor for the Cyprus Kyrenia School. In May 2017 Sarah also left the organisation to join IWKA and is now officially the assistant/kids instructor for IWKA CYPRUS.

Wing Tjun is a very practical martial art that uses principles of physics and body mechanics to teach people how to defend themselves in real life self defence situations. It uses a combination of structure and timing over muscular strength and brute force by deflecting and redirecting 100 per cent of the force of the attack into an opponent, so it is possible for physically weaker people to defend themselves effectively against a stronger attacker.

The Wing Tjun system is self defense in its most efficient and consistent form. Your own physical strength or prior abilities need not be the decisive factor in a threatening situation.
The young or physically weak are always the first targets of aggressors. However, ANY person without major physical disabilities can gain self confidence and a level of fitness which will increase their self defense abilities by 500%.

Wing Tjun training will teach you to direct the force of an attack against the attacker, i.e. to ‘borrow’ the energy of the attacker, ‘charging up’ one’s own body and then effortlessly redirecting the energy back against its source. The Wing Tjun system is one of the very few self defence systems that prepare you for every phase of a fight, using feet, fists, elbows and knees. Instead of retreating, a Wing Tjun student will advance and glue themselves to their assailant, rendering them unable to continue their attack. This proximity, combined with well-defined movements, will force the attacker into a helpless position. Advanced Wing Tjun students turn into an instant nightmare for any aggressor.

What is the Ritual Fighting Program?
The Ritual Fighting Program (RFP) deals with a much neglected type of combat which occurs everywhere many thousands of times each year, with many serious injuries and even fatalities. In this form of ritual combat the typical martial artist almost always comes off second-best against the unscrupulous street thug.
The RFP explains why, describes atavistic rituals and phases of these one-sided, five-second fights and teaches how the situation can be defused by visual and verbal means or body language.
However there are certain people, e.g. acting under the influence of alcohol or drugs, who can only be stopped by even greater violence. The RFP programs are the ultimate response to such threat. The program which has been tried and tested by elite police unites and consist of just a few highly effective Wing Tjun techniques which will rapidly put an attacker out of action.
