Dr. Tom's Martial Arts Training History

Black Belt in traditional Northern Kung Fu Styles:

For almost 2 decades, I have dedicated my life to the beautiful world of traditional Chinese Martial Arts. I have fought full Contact Sanda & competed in multiple open & weapons form competitions winning multiple medals & the title Grand Champion. I have performed in the ICMAC Masters Demo & taught the beautiful internal art of Taiji Quan, Qi gong, & external arts of traditional Northern Kung Fu to countless people around the world.

I took a break from fighting & competing to earn my doctorate in chiropractic medicine & license in acupuncture from National University of Health Sciences. I still fight, teach, & compete in open hand and weapon forms at the highest levels. Here is a list of some of the traditional Northern external & internal arts that I have been fortunate enough to learn:
