ABOUT ME

Derek Johnson also known as Cheung Tai Lik Sifu  張大力師傅 started learning Jow Ga Kung Fu 周家功夫 in 1978 from his teacher the late Grandmaster Dean Chin ((Chan Yuk Juen 陳 沃 進)) in Washington D.C. Chinatown.  Sifu Johnson’s Grandmaster or Si Gung (師公) is the Chan Man Cheung (契爺) 陳萬祥 of Hong Kong.   Grandmaster Chan Man Cheung introduced him to his next teacher Kong Yu Choi 江譽財 of the Jow Biu Chinese Boxing Association Hong Kong 周彪國術聯誼會(香港), which became his second home for many years.  Sifu Johnson has been teaching kung fu, Sanda “Chinese Kickboxing”, and Lion Dance since 1991.  He also served his country as a United States Marine and Police Officer for 25 years with 27 yrs. Law Enforcement experience.  Now retired, he enjoys sharing his experiences with students.
