KUNG FU TAI CHI SPRING 2026
The wait is over, and the legend has returned. Welcome to the second issue of Kung Fu Tai Chi magazine’s triumphant return to print. Our Spring 2026 edition has been six years in the making—a labor of love, grit, and martial spirit. Much of this issue features the curated content originally slated for Summer 2020, frozen in time when the pandemic forced us to cease publication. Now, like a master emerging from a long mountain retreat, we are back and sharper than ever. In this issue, we return to our roots: traditional Kung Fu. We’re delivering the deep-dive, insightful articles you’ve craved on the lineages that define the arts: Chin Woo, Choy Lay Fut, Hop Gar, Seven Star Mantis, Yau Kung Moon, and beyond. But we aren't just looking back. You’ll find your favorite mainstays like Straight Out of Shaolin and Fast Forward to the Fight Scenes, alongside an expanded Kung Fu Horoscopes specially tuned for the high-octane Year of the Fire Horse. The ink is fresh, the spirit is old-school, and the gates are open. Pick up your copy and reclaim the tradition.
