"Sifu Paul is not only an extraordinary WingChun practitioner, he is also an amazing teacher/mentor with a vast knowledge of physics and body mechanics and their relation to Self-Defense. In addition, he has a great teaching style that is friendly, humorous, down-to-earth, and encouraging. He is not one of those martial arts instructors that will tell you to do something without a logical explanation. Instead, he will explain in detail the reasons for each of our techniques."

"He was absolutely awesome. He has the perfect blend of seriousness and humor, of professionalism and an ease connecting with people. Even one hour with him made a profound impact on the kids and myself! We learned and embodied some very important principles, along with some very powerful tools that we could put into practice immediately. I highly recommend Paul's mentoring to anyone looking to grow themselves mentally and physically."

"Sifu Paul Wang has created an atmosphere at his Academy in which everybody feels both welcome and encouraged. Since I have joined, my bones have become denser and my mind has become quicker. It's also fun to train with people of all genders, ages, and body types."

"If you are going to really commit to learning a Self-Defense system, I think it's so important to enjoy the community of people you'll be studying with. That's a major reason why I love studying WingChun at this Academy with Sifu Paul."
— Melissa P.
"The IAW style of WingChun has taken a Self-Defense approach which is originally what this art was intended for. With this idea Sifu Klaus Brand (IAW Grandmaster) and Sifu Paul (IAW-US Leader) deliver an incredible curriculum for Self-Defense. The Academy has a very friendly atmosphere with humor and great community. At the same time it delivers precise and applicable techniques that can be used in a Self-Defense situation."

"I went to International Academy of WingChun in Berkeley and was impressed by what I saw. The effectiveness and efficiency of the WingChun style is readily apparent. However, even more impressive was the supportive atmosphere of the school. The WingChun style was completely new to me. Yet, Sifu Paul and his staff were all incredibly patient and supportive, allowing students to learn in an individual pace. At the same time, Sifu Paul's skill and dedication to the art are unquestionable. I would recommend the WingChun style and the IAW to everyone."
— Ed L.
"As someone who has practiced multiple martial arts in college (UCMAP), I can say that this school has a very honest dedication to furthering a person's ability to defend themselves. Sifu Paul, as the leader of this school, is very thorough with his explanations and patient with his students. He helps foster a very friendly atmosphere within the school which allows everyone to learn at their own pace. Moreover, he lives by what he preaches."

Being “traditional” in wing chun can be hard to define and is often subject to debate.
