Welcome to the Temple of Kung Fu

We will give you the skills you need to unleash the warrior within you.

Have you been searching for more balance, inner peace and meaning in your life?

Our instructors are devoted to transforming the world through the ancient and practical teachings of Kung Fu.  That Transformation Begins with You.

A journey into Kung Fu can transform you.  “How do you turn a lump of coal into a diamond?   Put pressure on it.”

We teach the Way and its Power!

By offering training in authentic Taoist and Shaolin systems of Chinese martial arts, Qi Gong, Tai Chi, Chinese Healing and Meditation, we can teach you the secrets to developing your mind, body and spirit to their fullest potential.

The Kung Fu systems instructed at The Temple of Kung Fu have been passed on from generation to generation. Ancient, yet highly adaptable to help you navigate through the difficulties of modern life with more focus, and self-confidence.

These arts are the real thing, with a 2500-year track record of developing ordinary men and women into life-extended, super-powered kung fu monks.

We offer classes, private lessons, and seminars at our beautiful studio in Highland Park, Illinois.  We teach students from across Chicagoland, the North Shore, and the Northern, Southern, and Western Suburbs.

We are currently offering many types of weekly instruction, including:

We also offer professional custom life coaching and consulting services tailored to individuals, and businesses.

Become the Dragon Warrior that’s been waiting inside of you to be set free.

For Immediate Release
7/8/2022
Local Kung Fu Temple Offering Free Lessons During July to Those Affected by the Highland Park Shooting
Highland Park, IL – 7/8/2022 – Beginning Monday, July 11, the Temple of Kung Fu, located in Highland Park at 36 Skokie Valley Rd., is showing support for its community by offering free Kung Fu lessons until July 31 to anyone who attended the parade or lives in the Highland Park community.
The complementary lessons are sponsored by The Way Institute, a local non-profit aimed at changing the world by helping people to conquer fear, will begin with a welcoming open house from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. this upcoming Monday, July 11, with classes offered Monday through Thursday from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., Friday from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., and on Saturday
and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. All ages are welcome.


Lessons will be taught by Sifu Richard Baron, owner of Temple of Kung Fu, and his team, who have marched in the 4th of July parade for the last 10 years and ran towards the gunfire to assist in getting people to safety and provide aid. “Here, we fight every day to empower people with the ability to confront violence themselves and realize that you don’t have to be afraid,” said Sifu Baron. “We want to help our community heal and make sure they feel empowered.”
Kung Fu, and martial arts in general, allows you to understand and develop a good relationship with power, helps to express emotions, and to set and maintain boundaries. And having the skill set can be a useful tool during the healing process.
