    Sifu Matt is an exceptional practitioner, teacher, and overall human being who embodies martial arts in his everyday life. He guides our practice every step of the way and fine tunes his teaching style to our individual challenges in the art of Ving Tsun. You would be hard-pressed to find anyone in Chicago that has more skill, experience, and understanding of kung fu than him.
    At this academy, you learn far more than just self defense. You learn more about yourself, how to overcome everyday challenges, and how to be more mindful of and in-tune with your body. Every time I walk out of the school, I walk out a better person than when I came in.

    I had the most awesome experience at Matt Johnson's Ving Tsun Self-defense Academy! The teacher was very patient with me to explain how anyone can this type of learn kung fu. The atmosphere in class was very focused and friendly to all the practicing students. I would recommend this school to anyone who wanted to learn kung fu and has a passion for the traditional teachings of Wing Chun Self-defense in Chicago!!!
