Kung Fu Gives Them What They Need
Kung Fu Martial Art Practice is a 1500 year old science of developing inner discipline, patience and perseverance. It is so fun and interesting that it keeps kids locked onto a path that gives them an inner strength they carry for the rest of their lives. They stay with it because they love it. Which is why our school has been voted Best Martial Art School in Austin multiple times over the years.

30 Years In Austin
After moving to Texas for grad school, Joe Schaefer and Sheryl Schaefer decided to switch gears and start teaching one of their favorite hobbies: Kung Fu. 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 or big egos. Now, 30 years later, Austin Kung Fu 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.
