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.

Since the age of 8, I’ve studied a variety of martial arts. With over 40-years of experience, Grand Master Swift teaches authentic Wing Chun Kung Fu, that prepare serious students for a variety of real world self-defense situations against multiple attackers. From experience, I’ve found Grand Master swift to be extremely patient, thorough, articulate and passionate with his instruction. Most importantly, Grand Master Swift is a good man. Consequently, I’ve found the students that he attract tend to also be good men. I highly recommend Grand Master Swift if it’s your desire to master the

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

We are fortunate to have Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift instructing Wing Chun Kung Fu in the area. Sifu Swift instructs students of all ages and skill levels utilizing years of experience and a true respect and passion for the art. I have been a student for just under a year. I wish our paths would have crossed sooner! I know reviews such as this can carry some weight - I would encourage anyone considering studying or furthering their training in martial arts to visit with Sifu Swift. It only takes a short time to recognize his skill and dedication.

Great place, I’ve been attending classes for close to 6 months. I’ve definitely learned more from Sifu Swift than other places I’ve attended. It’s a rare opportunity to train with him. It’s a really great atmosphere with kind people and with classes 6 days a week it’s easy to find a time that works for you. Sifu Swift teaches the entire Wing Chun system and doesn’t mix any arts. If you like the Ip Man movies, you’d definitely like training here.

I have been taking instruction from Grandmaster Steve Lee Swift since 2010. This is an amazing Martial Arts academy and Grandmaster Swift is an amazing teacher. I have no idea where the one or two negative reviews came from. Honestly, I know everyone who trains with Grandmaster Swift and I have never seen any of these people. I have no idea who… they are. If you want to learn Wing Chun from one of the few people in the U.S. who knows the entire system as taught by the Ip Man family then train with us in sunny Florida. You could go all the way to Hong Kong. I hear Hong Kong is nice but it

Amazing school and Sifu. And very reasonably priced. Expect nothing less than the best from Grandmaster Swift. Such an amazing teacher. His knowledge and skill in Wing Chun is unparalleled. After about 4 months of private lessons a student was able to pick apart black belts from more commercialized styles such as taekwondo or karate. Correct me if… I am wrong Sifu. Another student (small female) getting harassed by a guy at a gas station dropped him in 3 moves before he knew what hit him and dropped him like a sack of potatoes. So if you truly want to practice a martial art that will ACTUALLY

I have been in martial arts on and off all my life. GM Swift is by far the best ai have had the pleasure to study under.
Some others teach as a part-time Sifu Swift has been doing Wing Chun for 40+ years 12 hours a day 6-7 days a week.....
Hour for hour NOBODY has that kind of time invested in this Art. He studied under the very best and did what… few others have achieved, he knows the WHOLE art not just the parts (1) teacher may have learned from Ip Man....
