A great place to work out with great people!

These folks have been teaching since the mid- 1980's and have a relaxed but detailed environment. They take the time to work with each student individually and allow students to progress at their own pace. Their high level of teaching skill is evidenced by the fact that they have trained over 3 dozen US National Champions in various styles of internal and external Kung Fu as well as in pushing hands,Olympic style swordplay and Asian combat weapons work. Paul Ramos,the Master level instructor, shares his wealth of knowledge freely and with a sense of humor. Costs are very competitive as well. Don't hesitate to call them at 301-651-3617 to try a couple of complementary classes.

These guys, under the leadership of Master Paul Ramos, have trained dozens of national level champions since the mid-1980's. They focus on students developing true skill rather than the appearance of skill which is so widespread in this tri-state region. They help each student to accomplish their personal goals- whether that be fitness, stress reduction, the teacher training program, competition, self defense or simply recreation. These guys know their stuff and care about the progress of each student. What more can you ask for? Bao yuan Qing
