Welcome To US Martial Arts Academy
 

Our vision is to teach top notch Chinese Martial Arts, to enrich the lives of our students with the moral philosophy behind martial arts as we increase their self defense skills and gradually mold them into skilled, adept martial artists that would make previous masters proud.

  • Martial Arts are a great way to get and stay in shape
  • Develop practical and effective self defense skills
  • We've been teaching expert martial arts for over 25 years
  • We teach two great styles of Tai Chi for inner peace, health and fighting
  • We have a full contact kickboxing program taught by World Champion, Master Joe Dunphy

 
 

The School was started in Gaithersburg in 1982 (see Our History page). The two main styles taught were kung fu and tai chi. Classes were comprised mainly of adult students and all classes were taught by Master Joe Dunphy. In 1988 Master Dunphy incorporated Lei Tai kickboxing and childrens' classes into the curriculum as well as Chen style tai chi and chi kung breathing exercises.

We have produced many fine adult martial artists over the years and many have gone on to reach black sash level. We have worked with many students interested in lei tai kickboxing and have produced many outstanding fighters and some have gone on to become national and international champions.
