Who We Are
Master Matthew Chapplow
Founder of the Mui Faa Academy
The late Master Chapplow's martial arts journey began in 1970 with Judo, Shotokan karate, Shaolin Kung Fu, Chinese Kickboxing and Lau Gar kick boxing. He then looked for a martial art system to last a lifetime, through youth and old age, that would remain highly effective and flexible enough to adapt to an individual’s physical capabilities. All these attributes he found in the Wing Chun style.
​
He has been a senior instructor for decades and has been recognised as a master of the Wing Chun style by the worldwide Martial Arts Council since 2013.
