Thank you for your interest in the Wah Lum Kung Fu and Tai Chi School.
We are a traditional school of Chinese Martial Arts with the goal
to pass on the ancient arts of Northern Praying Mantis System and
Tai Chi Chuan.
Our school strongly emphasizes the value of the
arts, the true meaning and application of the system. We teach
not only the physical aspect, which includes flexibility, health,
correct usage of defense and martial application movement, and
body coordination. We also intend to educate the true characters
of the art, which includes the understanding of social attitude,
manners, discipline, and insecurities, to better improve self
esteem and to become a stronger role model. Philosophy and history
of martial arts are also part of our curriculum.
We offer the following programs for students. Click
