MERIDIAN BASILDON INSTRUCTORS
SIFU CRAIG PARADISE
I have been a practitioner of Wing Chun Kuen since 2000 under the expert guidance of Sifu Sata Chand. From the moment I started I was blown away by the speed, efficiency and beauty of the Art, and I dedicated much of my time to training and researching the system.
I knew from an early stage in my Wing Chun journey that I wanted to teach the art, so I that could share the many benefits Wing Chun has given me in my own life. This personal goal came to fruition in 2008 when I was given the go-ahead to teach Adults and children.
I opened Meridian Kung Fu Basildon Branch in 2011, teach over 170 practitioners of all age groups. I have students that have been training with me since we first opened, and now some of them have started their own branches having achieved their Black Sash Degree grades.
I’m still training and improving my art every day, and I gain great satisfaction in passing on Wing Chun to the next generation of students.
SIFU ROBBIE HEIDSTRA
My name is Sifu Rob. I started training Wing Chun at 9 Years Old as a way of building confidence and learning to stand up to bullies.
Shortly after joining MKF, I found a level of personal achievement I'd not experienced anywhere else and decided to continue and see how far I could go. At 16 I began working in classes as a volunteer assistant instructor and moved to full time Assistant Instructor at 17.
I began running my own classes at 20 to complete my training as a fully fledged Instructor before opening my own branch of the school at 22.
Having started training while young and growing up as a member of MKF, I've seen the amount of good training Wing Chun can do. As an instructor I aim to make my classes as fun and engaging as possible for my students while also providing a solid learning environment.
