been a handful of people promoted to the Master Level at Temple Kung Fu in the forty years it has existed. Being promoted to this level is considered a great honor and Master Robert Jones has also been inducted into the U.S. Martial Arts Hall of Fame this year. He moved to the Seattle area to attend the University of Washington but decided to pursue a career in the Martial Arts instead. He began training at Temple Kung Fu studios over 15 years ago.

Having studied Japanese styles previously he was amazed at the Chinese temple kung-fu style. Impressed with the soft and the hard combination - he soon was a follower, seeing the benefits he received from training the art of Temple Kung Fu, he decided that he needed to share it and so he became an instructor and has since dedicated his life to teaching the art of Grand Master Simon.Temple Kung FuRobert Jones, Master24615 Pacific Hwy S #206Kent, Washington 98032253-941-8822http://www.templekungfu.come-mail protected from spam bots.
