Sifu Swift is it. When I told a 30 practitioner of another discipline that I was going to be studying under Sifu Swift he simply leaned back, took a long breath, emailed and said "ahhh, the good stuff".

I've trained in martial arts since I was 8 for self defense. Life started to get busy after high school and haven't had time to get back into it till October of 2020. That's when I meet sifu Swift. His class in very engaging and teach practical skills with traditional ones. He not only teaches you how to defend yourself, but also how each movement is used. There are so many different combinations that it will probably take you several decades before you will master them like sifu Swift did. He knows the art very well and learned from some of the best sifu in China. Come and join us and see for

I've been liking Wing Chun since 2001. I only been learning Wing Chun through books and few DVD's. Also learning it's philosophy through many books, which relates to Wing Chun. But never get a chance to learn from actual Wing Chun teacher. Finally, we have a Wing Chun school in Minnesota. It's a legit School and Instructor. I learn many variety arts from different Martial Art Schools, but couldn't find what I want. This is a rarely chance to have a Wing Chun school in Minnesota. Sifu Steve Lee Swift is actual student from Ip Man 2 son & 2 student. He's also teaches straight forward applications

Upon meeting Mastor/Sifu Swift, he was polite & greet us very nicely. Getting to know Sifu Swift, he's very Gifted, knowledgeable & highly experience in the field of Material Arts (Wing Chun). His class teach real life situations self defense & I've learned many techniques just by watching Sifu Swift. If you want your kids to learn & really know self defense, I HIGHLY recommend non other then Sifu Swift & his team of instructors. Him & his team are very & highly skilled in the profession of Material Arts (Wing Chun)! They are they BEST in terms of teaching & you can put to practice right away.

6 years ago, I had the opportunity to learn Wing Chun in Foshan, China for a couple of months. Since then I fell in love with the Art of Wing Chun and had been teaching myself based on what was taught to me and whatever books I could get a hold on to that was related to Wing Chun and Martial Arts.
Now-a-days everyone likes to call themselves a Martial Arts master and self-proclaim themselves to be grand masters and teachers. But very few of them are recognized by Official Martial Arts Masters and Wing Chun Masters in China. Grand-master Swift is one of the few that is recognized by the Wing Chun

Sifu Swift is an award winning Grandmaster and has been teaching Wing Chun for nearly 50 years. This is his school. Not a school licensed to use his name or title, but his personal school and he teaches every class. The experience you get from working with someone with that much experience is unparalleled. His teaching style is more geared towards useful street self defense than practicing moves over and over again that aren't going to be effective. I've been taking 3-5 lessons a week here for the last 4 months and have also been taking weekly private lessons. I've not taken any martial arts classes
