About Us
Who We Are & What Drives Us
Master Alan and Shifu Jenny are a husband/wife team. We love sharing our passion for Shyun Style Eight Step Preying Mantis Kung Fu and Taiji. We enjoy helping people unlock the potential in their bodies and minds by promoting a balanced, safe, and healthy practice of martial arts. On the surface, you will learn blocking, punching, kicking, etc., but within a few classes we hope you realize that our true mission is to increase body awareness, coordination, control and ultimately power.
We also offer seminars for self-defense. We feel deeply driven to increase awareness and teach safety skills for the general public. We hope to curb the cycle of violence by empowering students to prevent and stop dangerous or abusive situations.
"Shyun Style Eight Step Preying Mantis Kung fu is a complete system of traditional Chinese martial arts. Its beauty when practiced is rivaled only by its effectiveness in combat. With practice, the system builds the mind, body, spirit, and character of the practitioner."

“This is a great studio. The teachers are highly knowledgeable, and give you plenty of attention during a class. After a few visits you'll feel like part of the Eight Step family.”
