Internal Arts - Tai-Chi (Taijiquan), Qigong, & Kriya Yoga Meditation.
Our Tai-Chi path is Stillness in motion. Power in Precision. A martial art of mastery, Balance, and Real-World application. Tai-Chi often seen as gentle - and it is. But, underneath the slow flowing movements lie a powerful ancient Martial art designed for combat, clarity, and control. Students learn the how and the why with us.
Qigong or Energy Skill is designed for health and to enhance your everyday life. We have many different methods of Qigong to teach; Lohan Qi-Gong, Wu Dang 5 Animals, Shaolin 8 Section Brocade, & Sinew Changing and Marrow Washing skill.
Kriya Yoga Meditation - Not to be confused with Yoga postures, Kriya Yoga is unity through action. This means deep breathing focused on key points within the body. I call it meditation on fire. Beginners learn the meditation process through stillness and 3-3-3 breath count.

Message from Sifu
"I lead Crimson Lotus Choy Lee Fut not just as an instructor, but as a survivor and a steward. Following a profound life-altering experience in 2023, I returned with a singular mission; to provide the highest level of traditional Kung Fu without compromise."
"My foundation was built under the watchful eye of my Sifu Lana Li Yen Fen through the lineage of Liang Nai-Zhao. I teach from the truth of experience, and value the sweat on the floor more than the reputation of the name"
