Sifu Daniel Carr

Sifu Mark Cheng demonstrates a classic Kung Fu Pose."Legends of Kung Fu" columnist Sifu Mark Cheng writes for Black Belt Magazine. This is what he has to say about Sifu Daniel Carr of Transformation Arts Kung Fu:

"Sifu Daniel Carr is one of the true modern scholars of comprehensive Martial Arts knowledge in America today. As a contributing editor to Black Belt Magazine, a Licensed Acupuncturist, and a Martial Arts Instructor myself, I can vouch for the depth of Sifu Carr's practical background and accomplishments in combative arts, healing practices, and applied movement sciences.

He has impressed me on multiple occasions not only with his tireless devotion to seeking out deeper truths in Chinese and Thai Martial Arts and healing arts, as well as traditional Indian Yogic practices, but also his genuine love of teaching and sharing such hard-earned knowledge. I highly and wholeheartedly endorse Sifu Carr as a modern expert in these ancient art forms."
