YMAA Orange County

OC Tai Chi Academy is an official YMAA branch located in Orange County, California, dedicated to preserving and teaching authentic Chinese internal arts in a welcoming and structured training environment. We offer traditional instruction in Yang Family Taijiquan, Qigong, meditation, Tai Chi pushing hands, Chin Na, and foundational Kung Fu for adults of all experience levels, from complete beginners to long-time practitioners.

Our academy emphasizes health, longevity, internal development, martial understanding, and personal growth through disciplined, lineage-based practice under the guidance of Sifu McIntyre, a long-time student of Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming. Students appreciate our balance of authentic traditional training, supportive coaching, and a respectful community culture that allows each individual to progress safely and meaningfully at their own pace.
