Chinese martial arts have been used for thousands of years to help people learn to perform superhuman feats. From two-finger pushups to transcendental meditation, Chinese monks were able to do what most consider impossible. But traditional martial arts have a habit of attracting snake-oil salesmen and sycophants, and the state of most TMAs today is sad, filled with politics, money, and ego.
The White Lotus Academy was born out of a love of helping people push their bodies to new heights in the traditional ways, with the vision of doing so in an inclusive, encouraging environment that grows with the times. Our curriculum combines elements of Northern Shaolin, Hung Gar, and some Wing Chun dummy work and introduces yoga, acrobatics, and modern MMA fighting techniques for a well-rounded traditional practitioner.

When you train with us, you are choosing to start the journey of becoming your best self--someone who can protect themselves and those they love, someone who has the strength to stand up after they've gotten knocked down, inside or outside the ring. By learning to fight, you will learn all of the skills necessary to defend yourself against a forceful attacker.
Steel the mind and the body follows. Warrior monks drilled endlessly for years to become masters of their bodies, minds, and spirits in the pursuit of perfection. Old training has purpose in modern settings, but like everything, it should evolve. We combine the rigors of perfection from before with the modern science and safety of now.
The first day you step on the floor, you make the decision never to be mediocre again. Whether you wish to compete at that national level or just with yourself, you will find that you are becoming your best self. Whether you have years of wushu or kung fu experience, or none at all, we will take you through the basics and taolu to competition ready.

I've been to a few different martial art schools and fighting gyms. I truly enjoy the material, the students, and the instructor at White Lotus Academy. I am constantly impressed by the instructor's ability to effectively teach kids and adults at the same time. No one feels overlooked or lost. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a good martial arts school.

White Lotus Academy has been a true gift to our family. The Sifu is a dedicated solid role model and created an environment that our teenage son could thrive in. By far, this is the best program we found that not only embraces the martial art physical aspect, but also that of the importance of being an up-stander in the community. Highly recommended!
