History
Established in 1988.
Houston’s Backyard Wing Tsun Kung Fu is the current name of the oldest Wing Tsun school in Houston, run by Sihing Alex Wallenwein. The school started out as the «Houston Wing Tsun Center» in 1988. Our emphasis in teaching is to bring willing students to full-contact fighting ability as early in the program as possible without sacrificing technical skill and know-how. Our school also offers Aikido classes under the tutelage of Sensei Samuel Biggs, who currently holds the 5th Student Grade in Wing Tsun Kung Fu as well.

In 1986 he moved to Houston to study law and began teaching publicly here in 1988. In 2004, he left the Leung Ting organization (IWTA-NAS) because of too much politics and too little teaching, and joined the Bay Mountain Martial Arts Association (BMMA) under his Si-dai, Sifu Simon Mayer from Germany in 2011. He currently holds a 3rd T.G. Instructor level under the BMMA.
