His presence, precision, and ability to connect movement with meaning left a lasting impression. Sifu Wang brought clarity and calm to the room while guiding us through traditional martial arts techniques with incredible attention to detail. Even in a short session, it was clear we were learning from a true master--someone deeply rooted in the history and philosophy of the art form. This workshop was a perfect blend of physical challenge and artistic depth. I walked away feeling inspired and more connected to my body and storytelling through movement. If you ever get the chance to study with Sifu Wang, take it--you'll be better for it!

Beijing Tai-Chi & Kung Fu Academy offers Traditional Chinese Kung Fu training you can not find anywhere else. Sifu Wang teaches Ba gua, Xing Yi, Sanda, Wushu, Traditional Kung Fu and Kung Fu weapons, Chi Gong, and Yang Tai Chi. The Traditional Kung Fu curriculum consists of learning forms and applications in Ba Ji, Pi Gua, Mantis, Eagle Claw and Chuo Jiao. In the weapons curriculum, you will learn spear, long staff, straight sword and broadsword, as well as some of the more exotic weapons like double deerhorn knives and three-sectional. Sifu Wang travels to China periodically, and trains with his old Chinese Masters and brings this much valued experience to his students. The classes are challenging, fun and you will learn discipline, agility, flexibility, coordination while being exposed to an education in the different types of kung fu. For those that prefer fighting to forms, there are Sanda (sparring classes) to hone your skills at full contact fighting. Unlike many schools in California that require yearly contracts, you can pay month to month. The Traditional kung fu class costs $85/month for two classes a week, a very reasonable price in Los Angeles. The classes run 1 hour and 10 minutes (sometimes longer). You can get a discount if you pay for more months upfront. Unlike schools with hidden costs, there are no belt tests that require money. Certificates are offered when a student finishes a curriculum and passes the test. The people that attend the school are fun and helpful. Once a year, Sifu and the students go for their dim sum around Chinese New Year. So if you are looking for a fulfilling, well-rounded Traditional Chinese Martial Arts Training in Kung Fu or Tai Chi, Beijing Tai-Chi & Kung Fu Academy is the place!

It had all the right worlds on the window glass, so I stuck my head in. Master Kim greeted me nicely and warmly, answering a few questions, and I walked out with a brochure. When I got to my car to leave I stopped. I've had a bronchial cough for over a month, I haven't felt 100%, and was at my wits end. I believe in all the modalities of healing listed in the brochure, though I am skeptical. I know there are practitioners and there are healers. Feeling that this was a G_d bump, I went back upstairs opened the door to a surprised Kim that I had returned so soon. We went over how I was feeling and, because of the grace that Kim extended, warily I decided to do an individual session, hesitating a little at the price. But with G_d bumps I choose to say yes. Without a doubt, a wonderful healing experience! I walked out the door an hour later feeling a burden had been lifted from my entire body. I don't know how other locations are but, I do know that because Master Kim is there, I am going to drive all the way from Pasadena to KoreaTown to take classes with him several days in the upcoming weeks. What Master Kim offers in healing is priceless! Phil Z
