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.

White Tiger Kung Fu is truly as good as it gets! Not only do I get to stay fit, I get to do it in a clean and safe environment. Students and instructors come from all walks of life, many of which are lead professionals in their respective fields. This makes for lively discussions, dynamic workouts and, at times, entertaining banter. I also really enjoy learning daily, simple practices that promote health- from making organic gingerale, to gardening, to power meditations. However, the primary reason that I have been studying at White Tiger for 5+ years is the supportive community. I am thankful to have friends and mentors who not only challenge me to grow but who also encourage me along the way. I am very excited for the journey ahead!!!

Fitness, health and growth-wise, White Tiger is BY FAR and away one of the greatest experiences I've had in my life!! The instruction is as good as it gets and being a "traditional martial art", it is a complete system with more to it than you can imagine. After only four years of training, my self-confidence in self-defense has grown 1,000-fold, and I know with 100% certainty that I have the fighting / self-defense knowledge that is required to protect myself and my love ones (personal growth and self-defense are the main reasons I joined and boy has the School delivered!!!). I KNOW I will be training here for many years to come and I can't wait to see the growth it brings me!

The students are sincerely friendly and upbeat and always work as a team. The School is INCREDIBLY clean and consistently feels like an oasis in all the dirt, grime, hecticness and craziness that exist in our society today.

You "just know" something special happens here. I feel truly fortunate to have even found this school!

If you live any where near White Tiger you just have to come by and see the School for yourself. There really is nothing else like it, especially right here in San Diego!

I have been training Kung Fu for about 15 years. I've been so grateful that I've been able to continue my training throughout my three pregnancies. Instructors are great and have made modifications accordingly so I could continue training and it helped to make my pregnancies go that much smoother as well! Plus, I was back to my pre-pregnancy body in no time!

Overall, White Tiger Kung Fu has helped me to feel safer both alone and as a mother out with my kids that I could keep us all safe if ever needed. It has also helped me to always stay healthy and in shape. Plus, I am a working Mom so my stress level can be insane at times. Kung Fu is my balance and helps me to regain my sanity and create calmness in my life.

If you want to be healthier, stronger, calmer, and feel more confident, White Tiger Kung Fu is the place for you!
