Sifu Brandon is a direct student of GGM Leung Ting (10th level) in the Hong Kong headquarters of the International WingTsun Association. He has been involved in martial arts for over 28 years. His training began at 14 with wrestling and later boxing. In 1971, while in the US Air Force, he trained in Old Pine Tree and White Lotus styles of kungfu. Shortly after finishing his military duties, he studied Tai Chi and Seven Star Praying Mantis. By 1982, he opened a White Lotus kung fu school and continued training in Seven Star Praying Mantis. At this time, he came across a book on Praying Mantis written by Dr. Leung Ting, Grandmaster of the WingTsun™ kung fu style. An accomplished author, Dr. Leung wrote books in English for his colleagues who were experts in other styles of kung fu. Intrigued by this, Sifu Brandon went to the WingTsun™ headquarters (then in Arizona) and met Grandmaster Leung. He was immediately impressed with the quality, fluidity and practicality of Leung Ting's WingTsun™ and asked the Grandmaster to accept him as a personal student. The Grandmaster accepted him, and Steve Brandon became one of the first American instructors of the Leung Ting system. All
