Beginners welcome

Two weeks of regular group classes,
compliments of Monk Wise.

Register yourself or multiple children using one guardian email. Choose an eligible class and first scheduled date for each participant. A reservation is confirmed only after availability and registration checks succeed. Regular classes welcome both beginning and experienced students.

The separate $20 paid online introductory offer remains a different option. This invitation does not create a paid membership or payment obligation.

Start with a question.

Use our inquiry pathway, or visit our current academy website for enrollment options. Online enrollment on this new site is coming later.

Beyond the first class

People, practice and tradition.

Explore the ideas and people behind Monk Wise without having to read everything before your first visit.

From the preserved instructor biographies

Adam Woolsey: the original biography describes his path through different martial arts and his focus on Chinese martial traditions.

Wei Fo Jung: the preserved account describes training from childhood, learning from several teachers and the responsibility of passing on tradition.

Lien-Shun Huang: the historical writing introduces his role in Monk Wise’s wider teaching lineage.

Janet Hough: her original account describes discovering Tai Chi through community education and continuing her practice at Monk Wise.

These are summaries of preserved historical biographies, not a claim about today's teaching roster or office-holding. Read the teacher profiles and historical context on our About page. Current teaching availability is confirmed with the academy.

Sending a request does not create a paid membership, reserve a private lesson or authorize a charge.

Please do not submit payment details or sensitive personal information. A request is not marketing consent.
