Jan van der Lee

I started learning Wu Style Tai Chi Chuan in 1999 from Sifu John Marchewitz in Rochester, Michigan. After about 3 years, when one of Sifu’s assistant teachers had to stop teaching, Sifu threw me into the deep end and told me to teach beginners, starting the slow and sometimes painful process of turning me into an assistant instructor.

In 2005 Sifu Marchewitz, took me on as a disciple. Over the years I have learned and helped teach the hand form, sabre form, sword form, spear form and several types of push hands, meditations and chi kung exercises.

I have had the privilege of being taught by Sikung Eddie Wu Kwong Yu, Sifu Stephen Britt, Sifu John Marchewitz, Sifu Michael Ashmore and my brother and sister disciples.

I feel it is a privilege that Sifu and the students allow me to lead the class, with the help of my fellow assistant instructors, when Sifu can’t be there.
