At JDMAA we offer an incredibly wide ranging practice
Of course we teach Martial Arts! In fact, we teach Shaolin Five Ancestor Fist, which is widely regarded as one of the most complete Chinese Martial Arts Systems. But, we also have a very rich curriculum of Internal Martial Arts; Qigong, Neigong and Internal Alchemy practice; and an in depth practice of Self Mastery!

Shaolin Five Ancestor Fist
Our primary practice is Shaolin Five Ancestor Fist (AKA-Wuzu Quan or Ngo Cho Kun). Five Ancestor Fist is a Shaolin Southern Style practice that was developed in the Fujian Province (Debatably at the Shaolin Fujian Temple?). The style combines the primary characteristics of White Crane, Lohan Fist, Taizu Quan, Monkey Fist and the internal arts of Damo.
We teach four primary weapons- Staff, Broadsword, Spear and straight sword.(We teach weapons outside of curriculum such as the 9 section Chain Whip, Chinese Sai, Daggers)
Once you have established a deep understanding of Wuzu Quan (Five Ancestor Fist), Students will be taught advanced level practice in Xing Ie, Baguazhang, Hua Quan and Shaolin Xinyiba.
Learn moreTai Chi and the Internal Martial Arts
We teach the traditional Yang Style Tai Chi. Our lineage is from the CMC and Huang Xingxiang schools. The first form you learn will be the CMC 37 posture set and all of the accompanying Tai Chi training. Later learning will be the 108 posture long form along with Tai Chi Sword and Tai Chi Sabre. Tai Chi is an amazing martial art but is probably more well known for it's ability to reduce stress and increase health. It helps with focus, clarity and a sharp mind.
We also teach the internal arts of Baguazhang and Xing Ie Chuan. These are different from Tai chi in that the movements are typically quicker and seem on the surface to be more "external" in nature. However, looks are deceiving when it comes to these martial art forms. These forms will also be taught online in educational pods that build progressively one after the other

Qi Gong, Nei Gong and Daoist Internal Practice
Qigong and Nei Gong are ancient Chinese practices that combine many elements, all of which are based on the belief that our bodies are made up of energy. By manipulating and transforming this energy, you can improve your health and wellness to a very high level with relatively simple techniques.
Qigong has existed for many centuries. It's efficacy is time proven. Qigong is based on the belief that the body is full of energy, all of which flows through a series of interconnecting pathways. If there is a balance of energies within the body, and if they are allowed to flow freely through these pathways, then you should be happy and healthy.
Our Practice is primarily in the Daoist Longmen Tradition. However, we teach some Shaolin practices in the early stages such as the Ba Duan Jin, 13 posture Yi Jin Jing and others.
