The Wu Tang Physical Culture Association was founded by Master Frank Allen in 1979 and moved to its home at 9  2nd Ave., NYC. the following year. Since then it has been the home of Classical Chinese Internal Martial Arts in the Lower East Side of New York City with a curriculum featuring Ba Gua Zhang, Tai Ji Quan, Xing Yi Quan, Qi Gong, Daoist Meditation and an eclectic Eastern/Western martial arts program known as The Fighting for Health System. The Association offers students training for improved health, self defense, more efficient physical performance and peace of mind. Founder Frank Allen and Master Tina Zhang feature courses in the Classical Cheng Style Ba Gua Zhang of Grandmaster Liu Jing Ru of Beijing (www.baguanyc.com), the classical Northern Wu Style Tai Ji Quan of Grandmaster Li Bing Ci, also of Beijing (www.northernwutaijiquan.com), Master Zhang's Earth Qi Gong for Women (www.qigongforwomen.com) and her 3 Treasures Medical Qi Gong program (www.qigongnyc.com). Tina and her assistant Marcos Rivera also offer a class in Chen Style Tai Ji Quan and Coach Mike Goldstein teaches the Wednesday Fighting for Health classes.

Over the past 3 decades the Wu Tang Physical Culture Association has produced local, regional and national tournament champions, Frank and other Association members have authored and published over thirty magazine articles and Frank and Tina have co-authored "Classical Northern Wu Style Tai Ji Quan" and "The Whirling Circles of Ba Gua Zhang" which are published by North Atlantic/Blue Snake Books and Tina has written "Earth Qi Gong for Women"  (www.qigongforwomen.com), which was released by the same publisher. Along with director/producer Terri Ferrari the Wu Tang PCA members have created a number of instructional dvd's which cover many of the courses offered by the Association.

Tina and Frank lead an annual Winter Training Trip To Beijing to study with Grandmasters Liu Jing Ru and Li Bing Ci and everyone is invited to join in this journey. All Wu Tang PCA web sites feature a page on this annual training extravaganza.
