At the Chinese Martial Arts Center in Clearwater, Florida, we offer traditional instruction in Kung Fu, Tai Chi Chuan, Qi Gong, self-defense and other forms of Chinese martial arts.
Our martial arts school is centrally located in the Northwood Oaks Shopping Center at the intersection of McMullen Booth and Enterprise Roads. We serve the communities of Countryside, Safety Harbor, Clearwater, Palm Harbor, Oldsmar, East Lake, Dunedin, and Trinity. Some of our students even come from as far as Tampa and St. Petersburg to train at the Chinese Martial Arts Center.
Our students don’t choose our martial arts school for convenience. Rather, they choose our school for our long-standing tenure (we have been established for more than 43 years), and the quality of our instruction. Training at our school is self-empowering, challenging, and self-fulfilling, and we offer both Group Classes and Private Lessons.
Learn Kung Fu
With a history that spans more than 3000 years, Chinese martial arts emerged first as rudimentary techniques for survival and later developed into highly efficient skills. Known in the West as Kung Fu or Gong Fu, these arts evolved into many different styles. Other names used early in its history were Chuan Fa or Quan Fa, Chinese Karate, and Chinese Kenpo. Nowadays, the term Wushu is popular.
In our Wushu Guan, the martial arts hall, we teach traditional Northern Long Fist, which is often categorized as part of Shaolin Kung Fu. Our primary styles are Mizong Luohan (Labyrinth High Priest or Lost Track High Priest), and Ying Zhao Fan Zi, commonly known as Eagle Claw Kung Fu.
