First Wing Chun meeting

My first Wing Chun meeting happened after I had called the Wing Chun teacher who was recommended to me by the travelling Wing Chun teacher. The new teacher's location was/is about 15 minutes south of Lafayette, LA. but that is not where we met. I first called the original teacher who was recommended to me but he said he was getting out of teaching and going into computer work in Atlanta, GA, but he had left his school to Don. He gave me Don's number and I immediately called. He wasn't there but called me back the next night. He said his wife's parents lived about 30 minutes south of me in a small town and Don and wife would be visiting them to help them out. His father-in-law broke his leg and needed help with the yard, etc. We made arrangements to meet at a Burger King in this small town the next Saturday. I met Don and his 15 year old son there and the first thing he asked me was why did I want to study Wing Chun? I told him that I was interested in the art because I had read and studied it and felt that it was the best for me. I also told him that I was not interested in learning how to beat up people, even the ones I don't like. I think that did the trick. I had a 2 hour private lesson with Don that Saturday. It was a terrific beginning! (more next time)
