In the heart of the land known as North Carolina (or NC for those in a hurry), where the blue misty mountains meet the sighing ocean waves, you'll find a truly remarkable bunch of kids. Now, these aren't your run-of-the-mill, staring-at-screens-all-day kids. No, siree! These are the Tai Chi kids of NC! You see, NC is a land of magic and mystery, where trees whisper ancient secrets, and rivers hum melodious tunes. Inspired by this harmony, these kids have traded in their video game controllers for the fluid movements and graceful poses of Tai Chi. They're the kind of kids who can balance on one toe while doing their math homework, just because they can! Now, leading this troupe of mindful kiddos is a mystical character named Twirling Turtle. With his shell shinier than a disco ball and his eyes twinkling with mischief, Twirling Turtle is the oldest and wisest turtle in NC. Legend has it he's been around since the very first hushpuppy was fried! Twirling Turtle, with his slow yet sure movements, teaches the children the art of Tai Chi. He performs each move with a hilarious twist. Imagine watching a turtle trying to 'Part the Wild Horse's Mane' while sneezing or executing the 'White Crane Spreads its Wings' with a hiccup! The kids giggle and guffaw, but they never forget the moves they learn amidst all the laughter. So, if you ever find yourself traveling through the enchanting NC, you might just spot this band of Tai Chi kids, led by a big, old shiny turtle, moving in perfect harmony with the wind, learning, laughing, and loving every bit of their Tai Chi journey.

Master Rondy, the creator of White Tiger Martial Arts, is a woman and a non-Asian who has broken down barriers to build the world’s largest and most reputable school. She has entrusted her long-time student, Michael Champitto, with the legacy of White Tiger, and with it, the opportunity to offer instructors the highest salaries, the fewest work hours, and the most benefits. White Tiger prides itself on its standards and expectations for employees, as we take our responsibility of being positive role models for our students very seriously. We strive to ensure their safety and well-being are at the highest priority, which is why we are picky when it comes to hiring.

At White Tiger, we remain diligent in our mission to provide our students with the best education in the martial arts. Our success allows us to offer the best salaries, the fewest work hours, and the most benefits, which makes us the premier school for instructors. We are proud to have created the ultimate teaching opportunity for those who seek to become positive role models and inspire the next generation of martial arts students.
