US Kuoshu Academy

At the U.S. Kuo Shu Academy (USKSA), we have been dedicated to providing top-quality martial arts training to individuals of all ages and skill levels since 1973. Our martial arts focus is on the practice of Tien Shan Pai, a style of traditional Kung Fu originating from the mountains of northwestern China. This ancient practice is well-known as an effective method for training the mind, body, and spirit to reach their maximum potential.

Our goal is to help individuals develop their character, health, and self-defense skills in an atmosphere of respect, discipline, and camaraderie. We are proud of our history and the numerous national, international, and world champions we have produced over the years. We have also received commendations from multiple Presidents of the United States for our dedication to excellence.

Our Services

We offer a variety of martial arts classes for men, women, and children of all ages and ability levels. Our programs include martial arts for children, adults, and families, as well as Tai Chi Quan (Tai Ji Quan) classes. Whether you want to become a world-class black sash or simply get in shape, USKSA can help you achieve your individual goals.

Our martial arts classes for children focus on teaching valuable life skills such as discipline, focus, and integrity while helping them develop their physical strength and flexibility. For adults, our martial arts classes provide a challenging workout that can help improve stress management skills and overall well-being. Family martial arts classes offer a unique opportunity for families to bond and grow together through the practice of martial arts.

In addition to our martial arts classes, we also offer Tai Chi Quan classes. Tai Chi Quan, also known as Tai Ji Quan, is a slow-moving, meditative exercise that promotes relaxation and improves balance, strength, and flexibility. This low-impact exercise is suitable for individuals of all ages and can help reduce stress and improve overall health.
