About us

Our organisation

Wing Chun Academy Association (WCAA) Sweden is the name of the WingChun style/linage/framework, instead of calling it Peter Yeung Wing Chun style/linage as the name of the founder.

Wing Chun Academy if Stockholm (WAIS) is the name of the Wing Chun school in Stockholm Akalla. Since January 20 2020 WAIS was reorganized (see more at lower down).

The names WCAA och WAIS are sometime interchangeable. More about WCAA och WAIS at below.

The Founder’s Approach

Peter Yeung is the founder and Sifu of the Wing Chun Academy Association Sweden. His martial arts journey began in the 1980s, when he trained in various disciplines in Sweden, including Wing Chun. With a professional background as a strategist, inventor, and systems architect, Peter aims to develop something unique for individuals with a similar mindset. This pursuit requires a deep study of the roots of the Wing Chun system.

In Hong Kong

Peter Yeung began studying Grandmaster Ip Chun’s Wing Chun system with the goal of becoming a certified Wing Chun Sifu directly under Sifu Ip Chun in Hong Kong. He resided in Hong Kong from December 28, 2001, to March 2011 for intensive training. After this period, his focus shifted toward adapting and developing the Wing Chun system for instruction in Sweden. Hong Kong is considered a second home to Sifu Peter, as he also worked there for Ericsson during the 1990s.

Next Goal

Sifu’s next goal was to create a niche internal Wing Chun system focused on both effective self-defense and health. By applying traditional Wing Chun pedagogy, the system emphasizes efficiency against other martial arts, beginning with internal concepts based on the first form, Siu Nim Tao. His personal objective is to establish an academic approach to teaching, using theoretical models and architectural structures to help instructors master the system and further develop it. The academy aims to attract highly motivated students with strong ambitions.

Why Internal?

Sifu did not originally have the typical athletic build associated with high-intensity external martial arts, yet his passion for martial arts remained strong. This led him to focus on the internal aspects of Wing Chun, which support both health and practical self-defense. As the body ages, internal martial arts help maintain functionality, making them a sustainable practice over time. Through this internal approach, Sifu aims to help others with similar goals practice advanced martial arts while maintaining long-term physical and mental well-being.

Since childhood, Sifu has been fascinated by the internal aspects of martial arts, which often appear almost supernatural. Through decades of dedicated study and practice, he has sought to understand the internal principles of Wing Chun, demonstrating how they are inherently embedded within the system’s core concepts and can be developed from day one, rather than being taught as a separate or supplementary system, and how they can be effectively applied in both training and real-world situations. 

The IT Combination

One of Sifu’s passions is Information Technology, particularly DevOps. He applies this expertise to the academy’s web applications to digitize and automate administrative processes, allowing more time and focus to be dedicated to training and development. 

His long-term vision is to provide a platform that enables students to establish and manage their own Wing Chun schools or associations using a shared infrastructure. The Wing Chun School Web Application is based on his concept of mastering and managing a common intraweb platform as an owner or webmaster. This concept led to the creation of the domain Intrawebmaster.com, of which Sifu is the founder since 2014.

Today, Intrawebmaster.com is also shared with NCCC Church in Stockholm, where Sifu serves as the IT Manager, supporting the organization's digital infrastructure and online services.

The AI Combination

Sifu has multiple certifications in areas such as Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC), including GDPR and AI Compliance. With practical experience in AI compliance and applied AI-driven software development under human architectural governance and verification, he has successfully transformed this website into a new web application.

He has therefore introduced Virtual Brand Ambassadors such as Wing Chun female Hero-T and Hero-M, which you can see further down on this page.

Currently, the AI does not have sufficiently deep knowledge of Wing Chun. This means that the Wing Chun-related content and alignments presented by Hero-T and Hero-M are not yet fully accurate. Training the AI to better understand and represent Wing Chun could be a future project.
