Boxing gym Martial arts school Self defense schoolAbout the Club
Wing Chun will teach you to literally break down your assailant by attacking the weak points of his body that cannot be built up with weights or other physical training.
Warning:
This art is only meant for self-defense purposes.
Two of our training guidelines.
1. If it’s not worth dying over it’s not worth fighting over.
2. If a smaller person cannot do it, and it work, it isn’t Wing Chun.

If you want to learn real Martial Arts in a safe and professional environment, this is the place. Sifu Carroll is an excellent teacher. He makes things easy to understand and works with each student until they get it. The things you learn can be applied very quickly and you learn something new in each class. Everyone there is awesome to work with without attitude. It's all about growing & improving!

I greatly enjoyed my class with the Wing Chun Boxing Academy. I travel a lot for work and visit many schools. I was very pleased with the class and the practices they use. I especially liked how they always explained the Why's behind every technique, and continued to work with me until I had it right.

I LOVE training under my instructors Jackson and Dustan. Wing Chun has been a blessing for the past month. Not only am I learning how to protect myself and my family, I'm getting the exercise and dexterity I so greatly need. The appeal of an old school garage training makes me feel like I'm getting a very personal experience. You can tell the passion that they have for the art in every session. If a practical learning experience in Wing Chun is what you desire, this is the perfect place!

Wing Chun Boxing Academy is a wonderful place to learn. Sifu Dustin and Jackson Carrol are excellent. I called Sifu Carrol and explained that I was interested in becoming a student. He invited me to attend a class that day. Upon meeting Sifu Carrol and his son Jackson I told them that I had no previous martial arts experience. They assured me that was not going to be an issue. Sifu Carrol allowed me to participate in the class. I became a student that day. I have been attending class ever since. I’m very impressed with their knowledge, skills, teaching methods, and the time they spend with me to make sure I understand everything. Questions are encouraged. Answers are given and demonstrated. The students exhibit the same characteristics as the Sifus. All have taken the time to help me. If you are interested in self defense, wing chun in particular look no further than Wing Chun Boxing Academy.

Training at The Wing Chun Boxing Academy has been one of the most fantastic experiences I've had in my 10+ years of martial arts training.
Dustan and his son Jackson are extremely knowledgeable and their approach to martial arts is practical and no-nonsense. The class structure and their teaching methods make the Wing Chun and Kali systems accessible to learn for any skill level, from beginner to seasoned martial artist.
I highly recommend The Wing Chun Boxing Academy if you're looking to learn a martial art for self defense, exercise, or are looking to expand on your own training.

The classes are great. Not only is the instruction good, but the instructors are personable & really care about your learning. They are quite intuitive, not only teaching to technique but also to personality traits & tendencies really challenging one to grow in both skill & self awareness. Really enjoy these classes & thankful to have the chance to surround myself with good instructors.

Huntsville Wing Chun Boxing Academy is well organized, begins on time and ends on time. Sifu instructs on time management without students looking at a clock. There isn't a shot clock on defending yourself or your family. Sifu builds on defense as last resort, constantly communicating, extinguish conflict and work on building strong character. Training is held in a family environment and everyone is treated that way. Sifu is excellent teacher, constantly building and investing in leadership of all ages to strive for Intelligence, being Trustworthy, being Humane, having Courage, and being Stern. Builds on instruction and discipline of each step and movement, while some how keeping you positive when struggling with a step or form. Great atmosphere and comrodary of all attending, Sifu keeps training flowing the whole time. Not a stand around and BS kind of class. Its serious, fuctional,and well explained. Enjoy training from knowledgeable Sifu Dustan Carroll and Jackson Carroll. Great people and excellent training.

I have been learning under Dustin and Jackson Carrol for a little under a year now, and I can honestly say I couldn’t be happier with my experience, before I started martial arts and was reading up on it I read that having the right instructor in any martial art is the key to succeeding and it is more than apparent the amount of knowledge shared between them is extensive beyond belief and use the most practical methods and are willing to change their current methods if a better one is proven to them which is what every instructor should do and teaches a good life lesson as well. Also I do not feel as if they are withholding any information back from me which is one of the big things that scared me when looking for an instructor, but Mr. Dustin made it abundantly clear that if he withheld a single bit of information from me and I get into a life or death situation and don’t come out on top, that he would consider it his fault and also explained that if every instructor withholds a little bit of information, that eventually through generations an entire martial art can be watered down and this was all very great to hear and I fully believe it through their teachings. I would recommend anyone interested in learning martial arts to train there!

SiFu tells you the truth. The truth about what you need to work on. He’s smart and fun and brave and bold and he’s a master at Wing Chun. And if you train with him he will teach you the right way and you will win every battle you face. - from a 9 year old girl student of The Wing Chun Boxing Academy
We, as a family, started training with the Wing Chun Boxing Academy in October of 2020. Not only are Sifu Dustin and Jack Carroll incredibly professional, they pursue excellence in all that they do. For the time you are training, they use every minute to better not only your form and technique, but your character and attitude; for your best weapon is your mind. The Wing Chun Boxing Academy will not only prepare you for any confrontation you might face, but will elevate your outlook and perspective on life. Thank you Sifu Dustin and Sifu Jack for your kindness and helping us not take ourselves so seriously!

I was traveling from Ohio to New Orleans and happened to see that Sifu Carroll's school was opened and called to see if my friend and I could visit. We were welcomed with open arms and were made to feel very comfortable.
He allowed us to participate in his Wing Chün class...not just observe...which was very kind of him. We both learned a lot and thought he was very thorough in explanation of the techniques being taught and their possible applications. Bottom line, I was very impressed, as I have been involved in various martial arts over the past 30 years.
Thank you Sifu Carroll for your kind attention.

I've tried a few self defense and marshal arts disciplines and this one is hands down the best for no nonsense self preservation tactics. I am 46 years old and not interested in being able to run a five minute mile, bench press 300 lbs. or score points in a match and this class and these instructors are aware that not every human is an elite athlete and teach accordingly. The discipline itself is intense but the benefits are extremely rewarding. I look forward to every class!

Learn practical self defense in a no nonsense manner from an instructor who walks the walk not just talks the talk. No association fees to some unknown organization. Very friendly senior students who want to help you on a non threatening atmosphere and a practical martial art that can save your life. If this sounds appealing then I recommend SiFu Carroll. Of the systems that I have studied Wing Chun has been by far the most realistic, no wasted motion, no flowery complicated techniques. As a career law enforcement officer I highly recommended Wing Chin Boxing Academy as the most effective art I have ever studied.

I have been in Wing Chun since 1978, have written for Wing Chun Illustrated, I have been a professional Muay Thai fighter in Thailand, have served in the US Army, been a law enforcement officer, etc. I can tell you that Sifu Carroll is truly a professional instructor of the highest caliber, deeply cares about teaching true self-defense and the wing chun system to those that truly want to learn. Many have passed through his doors. Only the dedicated stay and pay their dues through hard work and determination. It takes hard work to achieve true skill. Some leave when they find out that they can't learn self-defense in a day or two. It just does not work that way. Some leave after a few lessons to open their own schools and try to compete with him. Would you try to compete with your own Doctor after a few visits? Surely not. Being a professional instructor takes years of sacrifice, dedication and hard work. Look no further, Sifu Carroll is that instructor. He has also appeared in Wing Chun Illustrated several times. A local educator himself, a family man and a veteran of the US Army.

Sifu Carroll is my teacher, student ( SEAMOK-Ilustrisimo) confidant, and friend. He has taught me well, in truth he has opened his doors to me, guiding me on a Wing Chum path unlike any other. After 17 years of Wing Chun under various instructors, Sifu Carroll’s approach brought it all together.
A lot of people try to be derogatory towards him and others in the arts, (It’s to be expected in an ego driven venture). But as Saint ‘Seraphim’ of Sarov so eloquently said: “ Your ego is the cross your soul must bear.”

Sifu Carroll is indeed a Very skilled teacher and martial artist I really enjoy his class. This ain’t your mamma’s martial art, Sifu Carrol and Sifu Jack will teach you how to defend yourself. There is no such thing as a fair fight. Sometimes good people have to flip the switch and become ruthless to protect and defend themselves and their family. You will learn this here, Sifu Carroll is a very talented teacher and Martial artist. Wing Chun, Kali, and SEAMOK. You will be able to defend yourself upright and as well on the ground. Your goal when you go to the ground, is to take care of your ground attacker as quickly as possible. You arise kicking and punching on your way to your feet taking out and preparing. for other attackers, and kick their a$$.

The Wing Chun Boxing Academy is the best Martial Arts school that I have ever been in. I have been in Martial Arts for most of my life and met SiFu Carroll in 2015 after a brief phone call. The moment I touched hands with him, He did not boast or brag but began educating me on my flaws from all of my previous training. The classes are well planned and every student who shows up gets something from the class from novice to the most senior student. SiFu Carroll does not just sit around but is constantly helping other students and will answer your question. If you ask the question you are given the answer. SiFu Carroll is also a devout Christian and does not use Christianity as a sells pitch as so many schools do. I could go on and on about my experiences with the school and SiFu Carroll. I travel from North Carolina to train in this school because of how it is operated.
*If you are serious about learning how to defend yourself and build your confidence to become aware of today’s dangers, then look to enroll in The Wing Chun Boxing Academy! A Serious Martial Arts for the Serious Martial Artist!

Effective, common sense self defense is taught in a friendly, non-discriminate environment. All are welcome and I was made to feel accepted and valued early on. Since starting this class I’ve learned so much more than how to defend myself, the instructor and my fellow students have all helped me improve in many areas of my life. For something I thought I’d entertain for a few months, I’m now in my second year with no plans to quit.

I have studied many systems of martial arts in the past 50 years. No matter where I studied I always felt that something was missing. Through books and magazines I became aware of the arts I wanted to know more about. The deeper knowledge. What you can't get from videos or books, which are great study aids, but can't replace the experience of a real, knowledgeable instructor. Having recently moved to Huntsville I became aware of the Wing Chun Boxing Academy. This school claimed to teach both of the arts I have wanted further learning in, wing Chun and kali. After meeting the instructor and some of the students I knew that this is the school I was looking for all these years!! Mr. Carroll is well trained in many systems of martial art and applies that knowledge and understanding as he strives to pass this on to his students. Besides teaching martial arts, mr. Carroll is also a school teacher and has used his knowledge and experience in teaching to further benefit his student's, by teaching progressively. He knows what works plus how and why it works, as well as when it should be used. Each student works according to his or her own abilities. If you want no nonsense martial arts instruction you will not find a better place in the Huntsville area.

If you want to learn a martial art that looks flashy and complicated and where progress is measured by the color of your belt, then STOP here--This is not your cup of tea. BUT if you want to learn a brutally efficient and effective martial art to defend you and loved ones against today's sociopaths, the Wing Chun Boxing Academy is what you're looking for.
I've been making the drive from Memphis to Huntsville for the past four years to train under SiFu Dustan Carroll at the Wing Chun Boxing Academy. He teaches pure Wing Chun self defense under the Ip Man lineage. SiFu Carroll not only knows the total Wing Chun system, but with a solid background in education he knows how best to teach it (unlike some other martial arts instructors).
The students at WCBA include people in all walks of life--high school and college students, parents, health care providers, law enforcement, tech and service industry workers, active and retired military, teachers, and others. There are those who started with no previous martial arts experience, and those (like me) who have trained in other martial arts before discovering Wing Chun. The instruction is hands-on and students are encouraged to ask questions. With a focus on training practical skills for REAL LIFE situations... This won't win you a ribbon in the ring--as you'd probably get disqualified and banned from MMA, BUT it will save your life on the street when it really matters.
So what're you waiting for?

I am proud to have been given the privilege, opportunity and honor to become a student of SiFu Dustan Carroll at the Wing Chun Boxing Academy.
If you want to learn Wing Chun that works when you really need it, then look no further! This art is for small people, large people, women, men, law enforcement, bus drivers, and more. It can be obtained in Huntsville, AL from SiFu Dustan Carroll. I have studied several martial arts since 1983 and I can tell you that there is nothing like the Wing Chun that is offered at the Wing Chun Boxing Academy! This is the perfect place for those that may feel vulnerable at night, or believe themselves to be incapable of defending themselves against "big dudes." Learning Wing Chun from SiFu Dustan Carroll will increase confidence, self esteem, focus, drive, and simplifies not only self defense, but life itself.

I had walked away from wing chun many years ago. The teachers I had found seem to have gone away from the fighting side of the art. They all wanted to or Had to add other styles to make it effective. I just gave up....
A little over a year ago I found the Wing Chun Boxing Academy. I found what I was looking for 20 years ago. Wing Chun based on Fighting. Sifu makes learning fun. I have moved to study martial arts all over the country. I am truly blessed to have Wing Chun Boxing Academy here in my backyard.

As a martial artist of over 54 years, I can say with much confidence, Sifu Dustan Carroll and his Wing Chun Boxing Academy is the best there is in Alabama. Probably the best in the South and east coast, the west coast and north as well. I've been to many dojos in martial arts all my life and hold several belts and I'm still convinced Sifu Dustan Carroll is one of best teachers I've seen his Chuck Norris and Dan Inosanto. Dustan Carroll will teach students pure self defense from day one. Men, women, children, seniors, and disabled people will benefit from his useful and effective teachings. His teachings are very user friendly and many will benefit quickly from it. His students and staff and his school are phenomenal. He has taught them all well. Dustan is truly remarkable but very tough as well. You will earn it there. He pulls no punches. After being a student there in just a short time you will be able to defend yourself from any assailant with confidence and with skills and techniques that are unmatched. You will become a lethal weapon with his teachings and it's also fun and challenging in his school. I know Dustan is a recepient of two martial arts hall of fame inductions like myself and holds a PH.D in martial arts Philosophy just as myself, so I know his students are in very good hands. I highly recommend Sifu Dustan Carroll and his Wing Chun Boxing Academy.

Girls, do you want to learn to defend yourself in a friendly, intelligent atmosphere? This is your school and this is your martial art! Wing Chun Kung Fu was originated by a Shaolin nun as a system of fighting for a
a smaller person to be able to defend against a stronger, larger attacker. It is extremely effective. You don't have to be a great athlete to learn wing chun. Especially under the instruction of Sifu Dustan Carroll. He creates an intelligent and enjoyable atmosphere for training. Been here for 2 1/2 years and loved every minute.

This martial arts school will teach you how to save your butt in a real altercation. Wing chun, as I have come to learn it, is the most practical martial art out there. I have seen females (beginners at that) quickly grasp the techniques and concepts and heard their stories about how training at Sifu Carroll's school saved their life! This is real self defense designed for people who are at a disadvantage in a fight, such as a smaller, weaker person. The students there are like family and welcomed me warmly when I was a newcomer. I drive over an hour to learn this awesome self defense system and it is worth every minute and dollar. I would recommend this school to anyone who wants to protect themselves, regardless of age, size, or gender.

The Wing Chun Boxing Academy teaches a very reliable form of self defense. From day one you start learning practical ways of defending you, or your family, from armed and unarmed attackers. The Wing Chun that is taught here is taught in an in-depth fashion by a very knowledgeable instructor (Sifu Carroll). I am greatly appreciative for what I have learned here and would HIGHLY recommend it to those interested!

A spectacular place for anyone looking to learn how to protect yourself efficiently. Age does not matter, I've seen many different people of all shapes and sizes come to learn and seen all of them take many helpful lessons away from their first day. Not only do you learn a very efficient, practical art, but you also learn how to be a better person overall. People can receive serious training in a safe environment and you will learn more than you'd ever believe you could in just one class. If you've never studied a martial art before, that is okay! Wing Chun is an art that anyone can pick up and if you have studied other martial arts then you will be stunned by what you see. If you want to learn the art of Wing Chun, I strongly suggest you visit and see for yourself.
