Tri-Essence Martial Art

To teach, promote and research the utmost authentic (lineage) Chinese martial art, for both self-defense and health.

TriEssence philosophy

TriEssence stands for the three pillars of Chinese martial art: Speed, Technique and Power. Training in any style or system that does not practice all 3 essences will fall apart in real combat like a tripod missing a leg.
