SIFU SANTIAGO PASCUAL BEGAN HIS MARTIAL ARTS JOURNEY IN SPAIN IN 1978. IN 1985, HE STARTED LEARNING WING CHUN, BUT NOT UNTIL 1986 DID HE MEET HIS CURRENT SIFU, NINO BERNARDO. AT THE END OF 1987 AND UNDER THE APPROVAL OF HIS TEACHER, HE BEGAN TO TEACH WING CHUN, TOGETHER WITH TWO OF HIS SIHINGS, IN HIS OWN KWOON, WHICH HE CALLED “THE GARAGE.”
Sifu Pascual truly embraces the spirit of Gung Fu traditions. Wing Chun is not just a part of his life—it is his life! He teaches the Wing Chun system in a clear and comprehensive way, including the ethical and martial aspects of Wing Chun, as fighting or not fighting is not important, as he says, paraphrasing his Sifu’s words, “Fighting is a secondary effect.”
