U.S Jow Ga Martial Arts (USJGMA) has been opened since 2015 under the direction of Sifu Alex Lim. We offer Traditional Chinese Lion Dance, Tai Chi and Kung Fu. Jow Ga is a trifecta style as it incorporates three different styles of Kung Fu: Hung Ga, Choy Ga, and Northern Shaolin. We believe every style of martial art is unique and has various positive and negative aspects, therefore the combination of different styles allows for a stronger foundation and well-rounded understanding of martial arts. Through interactive teaching, it allows students to grasp a better understanding of the physicality behind certain movements and techniques by experiencing it firsthand, something that cannot be fully learned through a screen. As an all-volunteer martial arts school, our motto is “Changing Lives Through Martial Arts.” Through teaching our students to follow our 6 fundamental values: Kindness, Respect, Loyalty, Humility, Honor, and Discipline. We strive to maintain a positive family environment, allowing our students to have a positive outlet to become a well-rounded martial artist, a respectable member of society, and most importantly, to have a sense of belonging. Learning Kung Fu is for everyone! And with the proper guidance, U.S. Jow Ga Martial Arts strives to help YOU through your martial arts journey and kick-start your passion for Kung Fu!
