Jow Ga Kung Fu

5 ★★★★★ 22 Google reviews · Tai chi studio in Virginia Beach, Virginia

Certified Qigong

Certified instruction — reviews and the studio's own info point to a recognized tai chi program or lineage (think Tai Chi for Health / Dr. Paul Lam, the Taoist Tai Chi Society, or a named family-style teacher). If credentials matter to you, ask which program the instructor is certified in and which style they teach.

From the reviews

I started studying with Sifu Lee in the early 1990s. After 20 years I have only started to scratch the surface of Jow Ga Kung Ku. Master Lee allows you to go as quickly or as slowly as you are able.

★★★★★ — No, Mar 2015

I really respect Jow Ga. Both my cousins and my siblings and I attended classes here, my cousins extensively, my siblings I for about half a year or so in HS. It was a really friendly, easily digested experience, and what I learned there stuck with me. Sifu Lee is an experienced teacher.

★★★★★ — Monica, Jun 2016

Fantastic teaching from a renowned grandmaster in an environment that gives a family like atmosphere. I've been doing tai chi over two years now and over 6 months into learning Kung Fu. Anyone looking to truly learn should go

★★★★★ — Matt, Sep 2020

Your first tai chi class at Jow Ga Kung Fu

Nervous about walking into a tai chi class for the first time? Almost everyone is, and good instructors expect beginners to come through the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: a typical first class is a gentle warm-up, then learning a few slow movements of the form, step by step — no pressure to get it perfect, and you can rest or sit whenever you need to. What to wear: loose, comfortable clothing you can move in, and flat, flexible shoes (some studios practice in socks or bare feet). What to bring: water, and that's about it — there's no equipment to buy. Arrive a few minutes early to say hello to the instructor and mention it's your first class. It comes together faster than you'd think — most people feel far more at ease by their second or third visit.

Tai chi is gentle and low-impact, but it's still exercise, and the health notes here are general information, not medical advice. If you have any injuries or health concerns, mention them to the instructor before class, and check with your doctor before starting a new exercise program.
