MUCH more to martial arts

Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a modern coined term that’s been popularized by brands like the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) which is fun to watch! The truth is, mixed martial arts is an old concept that’s been practiced since the inception of martial arts. Systems like us evolve over time, learning new skills, new techniques, new adaptations and then some! Back in the feudal days of China, what we would call “cross training” was standard operating procedure. There’s much more to it, you’ll have to come for that folklore!

What you’ll need to know is outside of the cage, as MMA has been affiliated with nowadays, is there’s MUCH MUCH more to martial arts. For us, that includes, but not limited to learning about health, wellness, meditations, yogic practices, fitness, herbs, tea, weapons, homesteading, philosophy, just to name a few. We train what’s considered scholars, not just brawlers. Don’t get us wrong, we’ll throw down if we need to, but there’s more to life than fighting.

Authentic Martial Art With Over 400 Years of History.

White Tiger Kung Fu (or "Bak Fu Pai" in Cantonese) is an internal martial arts system that originated in Southern China. Also known as "The Emperor's Art," Bak Fu Pai is a "complete" martial arts system that contains a series of forms, exercises, meditations, and herbal knowledge.

Why is lineage important? If you were interviewing candidates for a marketing position, who would you have certain preconceived notions about before you even meet them: a business major from Harvard or a business major from Oklahoma State University?

There's a certain standard of education you can expect, a proven track record of producing successful students that enter the workforce, and a level of performance to be assumed. This is true with Kung Fu. People come to White Tiger Kung Fu to become scholars, not just brawlers. To learn more about us, click here.

This is a review from my 7-year-old son Aaron. "I like Kung Fu because I get to learn how to fight and defend myself if I ever need to. I like how they teach me because it is fun! I like how they teach me to encourage myself. Kung Fu is awesome! I always enjoy myself!"

It's true, this place is amazing!!! My wife and I have been students there for over 6 years. I truly enjoy the fun and positive atmosphere made up of the students and staff. We get a fantastic workout (both body and mind) that's safe and professionally taught. FYI, the school has been known to dismiss students that threaten the harmony and safety of others; this is a good thing, I'm glad that our safety is such a high priority- THANK YOU, Sifu Joel 🙂 Another wonderful point which came only through the years of experience is that the curriculum is authentic. This is extremely important these days with so many schools and gyms teaching made-up martial arts/self-defense programs from teachers that are self-proclaimed masters. That's like hiring a bum off the street to teach you how to be a millionaire. So do yourself a favor, check any place out for yourself, you be the judge. As for me and my wife- we love White Tiger Kung Fu and feel privileged to be a part of something great!

I've trained at several gyms throughout the years and I can honestly say that I have experienced the most personal growth from Rizzo's White Tiger Kung Fu School. What drew me in was the fact that it is a complete system where you learn everything from fighting aspects to meditations, to Chinese herbology, and many more. There is so much knowledge to be gained here that I don't need to go anywhere else.

 

I want to thank Sifu Joel for all the guidance in making me the man I am today and for all the help he's given my family. I look forward to many more years of growth through White Tiger Kung Fu.

I was new to the area and wanted to start learning martial arts again as I did as a kid and as fate would have it, a karmic meeting with one of the students brought me to this school. Everyone here including Sifu (owner and head instructor) treats everyone like you're part of the family and their training styles and conditioning are awesome. The oils and tonics they distribute add to the experience and aid in healing and conditioning. Membership is pricey but if you attend regularly and fully engross yourself into the arts, it's definitely worth it!
