Attendance: Participants welcome at individual sessions

We welcome people of all levels to try two powerful martial arts.  Taichi, often perceived as slow and an activity elderly do, actually originated as an ancient war technique.  You can learn how to use taichi to use your opponent's qi (energy) against them.  Kung Fu is an efficient martial art such that you block yourself and either kick or punch simultaneously.  You do not waste any moves.  These martial art series are taught by instructor Huan Zhang of Huan's Taichi who has over 25 years of experiencing in teaching both disciplines.  Lessons are free, so take advantage of it!!
