Michael S.

Business Owner

Sifu Michael Sampson has had a long-​time love affair with martial arts ever since he began Karate at his local YMCA at the age of 12. Because his father was in the military, Michael had the opportunity to travel around, offering him the luxury of training a variety of martial arts including Taekwondo, Chin Na, and Shaolin Kung Fu. However, it wasn’t until he ended up in Shrevport, LA that he began to delve heavily into the art of Wing Chun. Having trained under Sifu Lao for seven years, Michael found himself in Phoenix training under Sifu Brad Alexander. Later he trained under Sifu Richard Sims in Long Beach, CA from 2001 until 2005. After more than 30 complete years of training under his belt, Michael returned back his roots — Savannah, GA. Realizing that there was no kung fu school here and wanting to continue his training and his teaching, he simply began his own school.
