Boost Focus, Fitness, Balance, & Confidence Thru Kung Fu & Tai Chi!
Since 1992, we have specialized in teaching children, families, and adults self-defense Chinese Kung Fu and Tai Chi.
Like Karate from Japan, Kung Fu and Tai Chi are also martial arts.
Our programs are designed to help students improve focus, fitness, balance and self-discipline thru Kung Fu & Tai Chi while learning practical self -defense and personal safety.
We strive to schedule our instructors to provide a student-to-teacher ratio of 4:1, so that students get plenty of personal attention and support.
Students may begin our programs whenever they wish.
We do not have set start dates or “semesters”. All students begin with a 4 lesson introductory program which teaches basic moves in the first two lessons and then the student may schedule to join one of the weekday classes in whichever program the student has selected.
Beginner Tai Chi class – gaining balance focus, fitness, stress relief, and much more!
