INSTRUCTOR:
Anthony DeMatteo
A big fan of Bruce Lee,
he started martial arts training in late 70's. After spending
a limited amount of time in various styles; such as Hung
Gar, Aikido, and self defense techniques training, he
was still looking for a style that he could relate to
and feel complete. One day he came across to Sifu Chow's
Sticky Hand video and thought that was it. That's was
1992. Every weekend he drove all the way down to New York
City from his home in Connecticut. But it was worthwhile
because he always left the class with both good body and
mind. After 16 years of training, he finally earned his
instructor certificate. Currently he assists Sifu Chow
in his class in Westport and also runs his own class on
