This place is the real deal. Our kid is 11 and absolutely loves it. The teachers are incredible - perfect balance of strict and fun, and always encouraging and positive. It is an honor to be learning from them!

Master Danny and his teachers offer a fun environment for kiddos, as well as real instruction on Kung Fu. It's been great for my 6 year-old.

Awesome place to learn Shaolin Kung Fu. It's fun, it's hard work, and always a great work out. My kids started classes here, and they are having so much fun, I started taking classes. My son has made so much progress here. He has autism and could not even do a jumping jack before, now he's doing complex martial arts routines with enthusiasm.

Great place. The teachers work hard with the students in a fun environment. I realized quickly that the path to success is hard work on the part of the teacher, student, and parents. Within 4 months, my 6-yr-old advanced to a green belt where other students have taken much longer. When the other mothers asked about my son's progress, it became clear that my son would go home and practice while most allowed their children to play. While there's nothing wrong with joining an activity just for fun, don't be surprised if there's little progress when you view an activity in those terms. Yes, my son loves Kung Fu but it's his own hard work and determination to become a black belt that fuels him to practice often. It's more than fun for him, he's immensely proud each time he gets a new belt or weapon. TIP: Record the session so your child can watch the lesson and practice at home. Don't rely on the memory of a child when the forms become longer and more intricate. It's not fair to take a back seat and place the blame on your child's memory when he's not getting all his steps right. As a parent, you should support him/her any way you can so he/she can succeed.
