About Marty Goldberg Sifu

Martin Goldberg is the Sifu of the Watchful Dragon Kwoon in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Starting his martial arts training in Kenpo at the age of 10, he went on to study Northern Shaolin, Ninpo, Thai Boxing, and Boxing. In 1992 he was introduced to Wing Chun Kuen and has studied and taught that art ever since.

Initially reaching instructor level in Cheung Chuk-Hing's branch of the Yip Man family of Wing Chun, he has gone on to bai si (become a disciple of) Sifu Robert Chu and study and teach his Chu Sau Lei Wing Chun Kuen methods.

Marty is also the founder of the Wing Chun Kuen Mailing List, the first Internet discussion list (founded in 1992) dedicated to the open discussion of the art among all branches. More recently he was co-founder and co-speaker of the Wing Chun Friendship Seminars - a series of seminars across North America from 1998-2001 dedicated to the open sharing and discussion of the art across all branches and families. All proceeds were donated to local charities.

All these experiences have allowed Marty to be exposed to the many many branches of the art, including non-Yip Man mainland branches. He brings this experience with him to his teaching, promoting openness and the "all one family" viewpoint among his students.
