About Us

 Teaching In Austin Since 1991

After moving to Texas for grad school in 1991, Joe Schaefer and Sheryl Schaefer decided to switch gears from science into sharing their passion for Kung Fu & Tai Chi. They wanted to build a community that was fun, friendly, and supportive, where people of all ages could learn traditional martial arts without any hidden prices, clicks or big egos. Now, over 30 years later, Austin Kung Fu & Tai Chi is a strong and supportive family that’s still growing every day. Thousands of students have passed through their school, and the martial arts community they helped build has expanded into several more cities.

Our Tai Chi program has especially expanded over the years. We now offer discounts for our many senior students, and have helped hundreds of adults find their focus & peace with this ancient internal art.

The most powerful part of learning at a Tai Chi School just might be the very special impact it has on mental clarity and sharpness. As people age, we often experience “cognitive decline”. Tai Chi has been shown to slow and even reverse this process, but it also has many other health benefits.
