The Kung Fu Genius
Dubbed the "Kung Fu Genius" by his peers, Sifu Alex Richter is one of the most high-profile Wing Tsun (wing chun) instructors teaching in North America today. Alex has been studying martial arts since the age of eight, and by the age of fifteen he already earned a black belt in Taekwondo. During his late teen years he began training in wing chun, grappling, and other kung fu systems. By age twenty, Alex started training in Sifu Leung Ting's brand of Wing Chun know as Wing Tsun (WT). This art would become his life's passion.
Although Sifu Alex considers himself a Kung Fu Nerd, he is a huge fan of mixed martial arts, BJJ, and boxing. This gives him a unique perspective among his Chinese martial arts peers. Sifu Alex Richter is based out of New York City.
