Tai Chi in Northern Virginia
Tai Chi for Northern Virginia residents, across the American Legion Bridge from our school in Kensington.
Looking for tai chi in Northern Virginia? Shaolin Hung Fut Kung Fu School teaches tai chi to Northern Virginia students of every age, across the American Legion Bridge in Kensington — an easy trip from American Legion Bridge and Capital Beltway (I-495). Train in person on Nicholson Court, starting with a one-hour introductory class.
Tai Chi is our soft-form wellness practice: slow, deliberate movement that builds balance, flexibility, breath control and calm. The program progresses from Yang Style Tai Chi forms and the Yang Style Straight Sword form to a Hung Fut Tai Chi Fan Form created by 8th-generation Grandmaster Tai Yim, and suits every age, including students easing back into activity.
A short trip from Northern Virginia
We draw students from the Virginia side of the river too, crossing the American Legion Bridge and coming up the Beltway to the Rockville Pike exits, then one turn onto Nicholson Lane. From McLean, Tysons and Arlington it is a straightforward run outside the rush, and the tie is an old one: Sifu Tai Yim opened a second Hung Fut school in Fairfax, Virginia in the late 1980s.
From Northern Virginia the school is across the American Legion Bridge, at 4961 Nicholson Court in Kensington. Each enrolled adult student also gets a full access membership to the 20,000 sq ft gym we are located in, at no additional cost.
