Temple Knights Complete List of Programs
Tai Chi is very important to me. Sifu Valerie and Sigung John have the knowledge, experience, investment, of this ancient art to their students.
I have a 13 yr old with Tourettes Syndrome. Kung Fu has taught him strategies for coping through meditation and relaxation…He is so happy to have found a connection with the Temple Knights academy and their teachings…he looks forward to going to every class!
I so enjoy being a student …with my daughter…I’ve found my posture, and my core self again after having two children! I can’t imagine my life without this wonderful energy I’ve discovered with the help of Temple Knights. I know now that I will be a life-long participant in these art forms. Thank you Sigung and Sifu for the enlightenment.
Temple Knights Kung Fu is wonderful …They provided me an ideal foundation to study Kung Fu in the years to come. They have seemingly limitless skill to teach you. They will work with you, at your pace…You will quickly strengthen and gain balance.
I started as a student of Tai Chi with Sifu Valerie. Being a trade’s person with a history of chronic back pain, I was hoping to establish a regular practice to address this and seasonal depression that had plagued me throughout my adult life… I have found my sense of physical and psychological well-being greatly improved.
Tai Chi is one of the best things I have ever done! I’m starting to get in a “zone” when I am practicing & you know my energy (I have enough energy of five people in my one body…) & with what’s going on at the moment… it’s one of the only things that has never slowed me down & helped me to focus, etc.. THANK YOU!!!
I look forward to Sifu Valerie’s weekly Tai Chi class. A variety of activities keeps each session interesting and fun…I noticed that in a relatively short time my balance has improved. I have a growing feeling of confidence as I learn to move fluidly from one posture to the next.
