Master Yun Traditional Tai Chi and Kung Fu, Montecito CA

Meeting Master Yun revealed an innate level of martial arts mastery I had never witnessed before - having studied martial arts for nearly four decades. His focus is to teach dedicated students a relaxed, true integration of the whole body, producing startling power that is not based on muscle. He does this drawing fluently from multiple major Chinese styles, many of which are hard to find in the United States, and certainly not with his expertise and direct lineage.

Throughout life, when one has the good fortune to benefit from the lessons imparted by a great teacher, it’s a reason to be both grateful and inspired. This is no less true when it comes to the martial arts, and particularly true for Master Yun and his martial arts school in Santa Barbara.
Whether you’re a beginner or a passionate and experienced martial arts practitioner, you will not be disappointed by the access you’ll have to the superior knowledge and experience Master Yun and his school offers to his students.
The school, which honors its Chinese roots and traditions, evinces a welcoming spirit to those who enter the school’s studio. There are a variety of styles a student can pursue at the school, but no matter what one’s interest is, a new world of engaging challenges and exceptional rewards await those who exhibit and express a serious and respectful interest in the Martial Arts.
I’ve been pursuing an interest in the Martial Arts for many decades, and I think I’ve been very lucky to once again find a great teacher here in Santa Barbara.
