The World Taiji Boxing Association (WTBA) is a world wide internal health/martial arts organization founded by Erle Montaigue in 1979. Its focus is based on the supreme healing/fighting arts of Taiji Quan (Tai Chi Chuan), Qigong (Chi Gong), Baguazhang and Wudang.
The WTBA is currently represented in 30 countries with well over 10,000 students being in some way associated with the WTBA through its Members and Instructors.
We're a non-formal grass roots organization which does not emphasis politics, titles, uniforms, or traditional formalities often found in martial arts, although we do have requirements and quality standards for our instructors. Think of us as a group of like minded family/friends who seek to help each other achieve harmony, good health, real self defense and relevant values.
To get started feel free to contact us for further information (link should provide contact with
both the WTBA HQ and USA Association), or simply join.
Our Mission
To educate and teach the highest quality internal health/martial arts.
“In my search for the highest quality Taiji available the WTBA is by far the most informative and no nonsense organization I’ve come across.”
