Iād go for the Wing Chun one.
I really dont like the title āBest Academy of Martial Artsā. It says that the teacher is a 10th Degree Black Belt, wich could make sense if your thinking about Karate, but there is no such thing as 10th degree bb on Shaolin Kung Fu that he claims to teach.

You may save yourself time and money in the long run by travelling to a good school that is further away.
The wing tsun school will probably teach you to fight if it doesnāt bore you to death with politics.
Incidentally, some of the very best schools are deliberately hard to find.
I sent him an e-mail asking about his linage this was his reply. Hi Tyler,
Thanks for your interest in our classes.
Hereās my formal lineage:
Ng Mui ==> Yim Wing Tsun ==> Leung Bok Chau ==> Leung Lan Kwai ==> Wong Wah Bo ==> Leung Yee Tei ==> Leung Jan ==> Chan Wah Shun and Leung Bik ==> Yip Man ==> Leung Ting ==> Mike Adams
I am a direct student of Great Grandmaster Dr. Leung Ting of Hong Kong, the last closed-door disciple of the late Grandmaster Yip Man (Bruce Leeās instructor).
Iāve been doing WingTsun since Si-Fu Leung Ting first came to the USA in 1980. Iām the most senior WingTsun instructor west of the Mississipi River, and one of the most senior in North America. I also sit on the Board of Directors of the International WingTsun Association, North American Section
<http://www.leungtingwingtsun.net/contact.html>
which is the American branch of GGM Leung Tingās IWTA, the worldās largest Chinese martial arts organization, with branches in 64 countries.
We bring Si-Fu Leung Ting in several times a year from Hong Kong to teach the senior students and instructors as well, so there are some really excellent training opportunities.
I started teaching in Illinois in 1988, and we now have classes in the Chicago suburbs (Lisle and Wheeling) and Central Illinois (Bloomington-Normal and Pontiac). Since
Iām originally from Illinois, and so is my wife, weāre pretty much settled down here for the rest of our lives, which means the classes are stable and ongoing. The class sizes tend to be small (5-15 people), with lots of personal
attention.
If you let me know which class is nearest to you, Iāll be happy to send directions and you can come by and watch or try a class and see what you think!
Youāre welcome,
Sifu Mike
Sound good? Because through vigorous searching i found one in the same city but has no website 
Sound interesting. The guy seems a little proud, but I suppose he has the right to, from the credentials that he has told you of himself.
Might want to research those associations and that that ālast close-door discipleā first to make sure heās not lying or anything.
Check him out, if there is a school within reasonable distance to you, I would go and see how it is.

Hrmm, apparently Leung Ting (mike adams sifu) falsly named himself āhead of wing chunā or some such :eek: but then took it back.

Every living wing chun grandmaster claims to hold the official lineage. Donāt worry about it. The important questions are whether or not the instructor can fight, and whether or not he can teach you to do the same. Go take a look.
Donāt now there Kungy, but why donāt we ask our beautiful young assistant?

āPerhaps future generations will tell stories about your skill!ā
Hmmmā¦sounds like a nice promo for your typical kung fu cult. Probably an ok choice if your head is screwed on straight and you avoid sifu worship.
Re: Karate School
First of all, real 10th degree black belts are EXTREMELY rare. There are probably one or maybe two in each major style. This guy is a liar, although again you may be able to learn something from him if you ignore what he says and watch what he does.
