About Us

Welcome to Falling Leaves Kung Fu, where we offer a complete art for the body and mind through our traditional martial arts training. Our philosophy is rooted in the teachings of the Old Masters, who emphasized the importance of cultivating physical and mental discipline to achieve true mastery of the art.

The Old Masters of martial arts were renowned not only for their physical prowess but also for their deep understanding of Zen philosophy and tai chi principles. They recognized that true mastery of the art required not only the cultivation of physical strength and skill but also the development of mental focus, inner calm, and a deep connection to the natural world. At Falling Leaves Kung Fu, we honor the legacy of the Old Masters by integrating these timeless principles into our training programs, helping our students to develop not only their bodies but also their minds and spirits.

At Falling Leaves Kung Fu, we specialize in adults only martial arts training. We believe that this approach allows us to provide a more focused and personalized experience for our students and allows us to tailor our training methods to meet the unique needs of each individual.

I Liq Chuan

Curious about I Liq Chuan, the style of kung fu that we practice at Falling Leaves?

I Liq Chuan is a martial art that has a unique approach to training. Our unique spinning and sticky hands training allows students to develop sensitivity and flow in their movements. This results in a fluid and graceful style that is both effective in self-defense and aesthetically pleasing to watch.

The practice of I Liq Chuan also focuses on developing stability and balance in movements. This is achieved through the cultivation of a strong center and a deep sense of awareness of one’s body in space. By learning to move from a centered and balanced state, practitioners of I Liq Chuan are able to maintain their balance and stability even in challenging situations.

The integration of mind and body is also a key component of I Liq Chuan. Through regular practice, students learn to develop a deep sense of inner calm and stillness, which can help them to stay focused and present even in high-pressure situations. This focus and presence is a valuable skill that can be applied not only in martial arts but also in everyday life.

Overall, I Liq Chuan offers a holistic approach to martial arts training that can help students to develop physical strength, mental focus, and emotional resilience. It is a unique and transformative practice that is well worth exploring for anyone interested in martial arts or personal development.
