Si-Hing Matthew Fitzmaurice was first introduced to the Martial Arts with Judo in 1985. He went on to learn Taekwondo and obtained the rank of Black Belt but always felt there was something missing from his path to learning Self Defence. This lead him to Wu Shu. Si-Hing Matt learnt Taekwondo and WuShu together for a couple of years before stopping the Taekwondo and continuing with the Wu Shu. Moving around Sydney saw him also training in Kick Boxing and Akido.

Finally, he wondered in to one of classes held in Newtown at the time. The scientific simplicity of WingTsun blew him away and he knew he did not need to look any longer.

Si-Hing Matt is one of Sifu Stefan Fischer's fulltime students (training 5 days a week) and is now assisting Si-Fu with classes at the AUEWTO headquarters in Chippendale.
