Professional trainer and coach Sifu Ingo Weigel is an entrepreneur, author, martial arts master in Revat and Wing Chun (aka Wing Tsun) and a self-defense expert with over 20 years of professional experience. Born in Russia and growing up in former East Germany, Weigel always had an interest in the philosophies and principles of martial arts. As a teenager, Weigel was a gifted athlete and enjoyed a variety of different sports that catapulted him to local stardom. In his later teenage years, he focused on his martial arts training. Here is where he met a colleague who became a close friend and mentor.
Weigel, a former law enforcement agent has spent over a decade of studying and learning from some of the best and most influential martial arts masters of our time. His primary focus has always been the practicality of martial arts training for mind and body as well as real life applications on the physical, intellectual and the spiritual level. It was his commitment to practical applicability of martial arts training that has taken him from Wing Chun to Revat.
In 2000, Sifu Weigel left Europe and moved to the US where he opened the Wing Tsun Academy in Chicago, IL. The training and philosophies taught quickly turned the school into the leading Wing Tsun School in the Midwest. Many of today’s advanced Wing Tsun/Chun instructors in the Midwest have come through his school and adapted the curriculum.
For about 15+ years, Sifu Weigel also has been teaching seminars and workshops to Military and Law Enforcement, Martial Arts experts and Civilians throughout the US, Europe, Canada and Brazil.

He has been featured in various Media outlets and helped many of his students to develop a love for and eagerness to discover martial arts and apply the philosophies in their daily lives. After a very successful decade in Chicago, Sifu Weigel left the Midwest behind to tackle new challenges and goals here in sunny California.
