Jade Forest Kung Fu & Tai Chi

A Journey Towards Wellness through Traditional Martial Arts and Somatic Practices

Jade Forest stands as a beacon of holistic wellness, empowering individuals of all ages to explore the profound potential of traditional martial arts and somatic practices. Founded in 1995 by Sifu John C. Loupos, the school has blossomed into a vibrant community united by the pursuit of health, self-defense, and inner peace.

Kung Fu: Empowering Mind and Body

Our extensive Kung Fu programs delve into the foundational Praying Mantis and Bak Sil Lum (Northern Shaolin) styles. This dynamic system fosters mental clarity, physical fitness, and adeptness in self-defense. Young minds and bodies can find their place in dedicated Pee Wee's and Kids programs, while adults can refine their skills in dedicated adult courses.

Tai Chi: Cultivating Peace and Balance

Beyond physical training, Jade Forest offers the profound wisdom of traditional Yang Style Tai Chi. This gentle exercise promotes balance, flexibility, and mindful awareness, fostering inner peace and graceful movement. Beginners and experienced practitioners alike can benefit from tailored programs designed to meet their individual needs.

Exploring Internal Arts

Step beyond the conventional to embrace the rarest of internal martial arts - the Liu Ho Ba Fa system. This profound system unlocks the body's hidden energy potential through precise breathing and specialized movements, leading to enhanced vitality and self-mastery.

Beyond Physical Training

Jade Forest goes beyond physical training. We proudly offer Hanna Somatics, a method that integrates mindful movement with conscious awareness to restore and rejuvenate the body. Additionally, our comprehensive class schedule includes workshops and seminars that delve into diverse topics like qigong, stress reduction, and mindfulness.
