General Info
The Richmond Moy Yat Kung Fu Academy was founded in 1986 in order to make pure Ving Tsun Kung Fu available to the public, for self-defense, fitness and personal development and to carry on Grandmaster Moy Yat's legacy. The school was opened by Grandmaster Anthony Moy Tung Dandridge, a close disciple of the late Moy Yat. Today, there are more than 20 branches around the country in Moy Tung's kung fu lineage, and tens of thousands of students have benefited from the mental and physical challenges that the system offers. With such a tenure, there exists a diverse and deep community of practitioners who shape and aid students. Kung Fu teachers and students travel to Richmond for training, and Grandmaster Moy Tung maintains a regular schedule of workshops at the branches under him, while also teaching his personal students.

I first started training in 1991 and serve as an instructor. Moy Yat Ving Tsun Kung Fu has been one of the great things in my life. My health and confidence has improved, and I know i have effective fighting skills for self-defense. Training is fun and challenging.
As a woman, Moy Yat Kung Fu has definitely been an inspiration to me. it teaches how a smaller, weaker person can use positioning and structure to defeat a larger, stronger attacker. I think it is the most practical style of kung fu and that this school teaches the most authentic version. I would recommend it to anyone looking for real, practical, authentic kung fu.
This is an impressive group and school with a unique presence. The classes for the children are artistic and enhance cultural exposure like no other School I've known. The Ving Tsun art has a proud and effective history. I'd recommend it for families or individuals on many levels; The art, the school, the people, the programs, the culture. The whole experience.
The Moy Yat Ving Tsun Kung Fu Academy is a worthwhile, positive learning experience that I would recommend to anyone! I look forward to visiting again in the near future!

Sifu O'Brien is a Kung Fu legend. You will not be able to resist Ving Tsun after witnessing his awesome technique. Thank YOU Sifu.
Highly effective training in the efficient and powerful style of Ving Tsun. Enjoyable classes, amazing opportunities for physical and mental growth. Whether you already practice another style of martial arts, or you've never tried it before, Ving Tsun kung fu is worth your while!
