ABOUT US
White Crane & The Instructor
Our branch of Fujian white crane is called Fei He or Flying Crane. Flying Crane makes use of both high and low kicks yet has marked preference for rapid hand techniques. It stresses empty hand as well as weapons training, two- person sets, self defense drills and free sparring. The style’s fierce pressure point attacks combined with rapid footwork and a no-nonsense approach make it particularly effective, complete, and beautiful martial art.
STYLES
Sparring / Two Person Drills
Sparring is where technique meets application, allowing students to refine their skills in real-time combat scenarios.
Applications
White Crane Kung Fu is more than just forms and drills—it’s a practical martial art designed for real-world application.
TESTIMONIALs
I’ve been a student of Sifu John Jackson for many years. His dedication and passion for teaching are unmatched. He has inspired my desire to learn Kung Fu and has taught me valuable skills in my WhiteCrane training. These skills have not only shaped me physically but also mentally and spiritually. The training with Sifu has been transformative and I highly recommend his school to anyone interested in martial arts and personal growth.

Training with Shifu John Jackson continuously for the last 17 years has been a privilege and an honor. Shifu John Jackson is an excellent teacher who is dedicated and passionate about teaching all aspects of the Flying Crane style of White Crane kung fu. It is serious training for real self defense situations. I encourage anyone interested in training traditional kung fu to train in this school.

I love the weapons training! Learning to handle the staff and straight sword has improved my coordination and strength. The academy’s structured approach makes even complex techniques easy to follow. If you’re looking for a traditional yet practical martial arts experience, this is the place!
