Not brute strength, but smart techniques, balance, and quick reflexes. That’s the idea behind the lessons of sifu (meaning: master) Zimmermann.
When most people think of Kung Fu, they think of high jumps and kicks, swinging knives, or a giant panda. Not Edgar Zimmermann from Enschede. As a “sifu,” he teaches at his own Kung Fu school. He specializes in the WingTczun style, a modern variation of the ancient Chinese martial art focused on self-defence. His EWO Academy is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary this year.
His school is located next to the Alpha Tower in the center of Enschede. “We’ve been around for thirty years, time has flown by,” says Zimmermann with a big smile on his face. He has been practicing the ancient Chinese martial art for over 37 years. “I love it, and I still enjoy it immensely. And I also enjoy teaching it.”

Ezcrima training with the Basilard (short sword) at the EWO Academy (6/4/2004). With Sifu Edgar Zimmermann and Stefan Somhorst.
Training with and against sticks/ bladed weapons, with the purpose to improve overall stamina, is an integral part of the Leadership Programmes at the EWO Academy.
Certainly the safety is utmost important, that’s why at the beginning the programme is executed with ‘Safety Sticks’.
Within this specific programme, training with such tools is not mandatory, one can choose wether or not to practice it. In cases where a student prefers not to practice it, he/she is allowed to choose another program.
However, only the most advanced Leadership (Elite) students are allowed to practise with swords etc.
The benefit of practising with such tools is that one can learn to ‘read’ one’s opponent better and can guess with proxy, the distance better, both qualities of which are unmissable advantages when it comes to advanced self-defence and safety.
