Our Origin
All members of the Tyrrell-Gaskell family initially studied the American Mixed Martial Art known as Kajukenbo Self-Defense and are Kajukenbo Self-Defense black belt instructors.  
“Guangxi” (pronounced “Gwon-Zhee”) means “Broad Expansive West” and is the southernmost autonomous region in the People’s Republic of China where Master Dan Tyrrell studied Tai Chi, Wushu, and other Chinese martial arts styles.  After Dan’s return to the U.S., the family has continued to branch out, explore and incorporate concepts and principles from other disciplines into the curriculum offered at Guangxi.
