At GBWKF we believe that martial arts is more than training or competition — it is a way to connect, learn, and grow together. Our “Become a Friend” membership is an invitation to join a vibrant network of authentic Chinese Martial Arts clubs, schools, associations, and individuals who share the same passion for excellence, tradition, and community.

When you become a Friend of GBWKF, you’re not just signing up for a membership — you’re joining a movement built on friendship, authenticity, and mutual support. We welcome everyone who values the true spirit of Wushu, Tai Chi, and traditional Chinese martial arts, regardless of size, style, or location.
