Announcing a new internal martial arts class offering - Baguazhang. Starting 🔥THIS WEDNESDAY🔥
we will be offering Liang Zhenpu Baguazhang at our school, every week!

Our lineage, preserved by the North American Tang Shou Tao Association (NATSTA), offers an incredible curriculum in this martial art, which was passed down from generations of dedicated masters and students. We train a vast curriculum of dynamic warm-ups, ding shi (circle walking), very specific two-person drills, empty-hand and weapons forms. Bagua is both medicine and martial; it brings peace of mind, focus, greater health, self-defense skills, and is just a lot of fun.

Every Wednesday 5:30-7:30pm. Located at Finger Lakes Acupuncture & Gongfu, at 407 Taughannock Blvd, in the west end of Ithaca. Come check it out to see for yourself what Baguazhang is all about.

No experience required to attend. We work with each individual, so you will build skills from wherever you're at.

Sometimes dogs need Chinese herbs, too! Today I made Xiao Yao San (Free and Easy Wanderer) honey pills for my shepherd mix, Henry. He sometimes gets anxious and stressed, and this formula helps both people and pets feel “free and easy”! Added a little peanut butter to the dough and it’s foolproof - he loves it!!
