Three Dragons Way

Has taught Tai Chi and Martial Arts in the Kansas City area since 1993.  Master Huff has earned Black Belts in many different styles of Martial Arts including Fifth Degree and below.  He started learning Martial Arts in 1978.  Mr. Huff met Grand Master Chen Zhenglei in 2001 and began learning from him.  He began making trips to China each year for participation in the International Taiji Camps and Tournaments.  He also began hosting Grand Master Chen to Kansas City each year.  By 2005 he became a Disciple and went through ceremonies in Zhengzhou Henan, China.  His speech and ceremony, as well as a short story of his involvement with Grand Master Chen and Taijiquan, was broadcast on CCTV (a national network). 

He is also an accomplished woodworker and weapons maker.  His specialty is wooden swords and Guan Dao. He has made special swords and Guan Dao out of exotic hardwoods that include inlays of wood that he was given from the Chen Village. (Original birthplace of Taijiquan) He teaches many places in Kansas City where beginners may start learning Tai Chi.  Below is a list of some of the locations and information.  For serious Taijiquan learning, contact Master Gary Huff in Kansas City, USA.
