Shao-Lin Center For Martial Arts

I have been studying at the Shao-lin Center for Martial Arts for a little over two months now. I am a student in both the Tai Chi and Kung Fu classes, and I absolutely them. I attend classes there three days a week and look forward to them on each of those days. Training there is awesome! Mind, Body, Spirit: every part of you is nurtured, honed, and made better. It's hard work. There is lots of sweating and muscles ache, but every day you will see and feel yourself becoming more balanced, more toned, and more comfortable in your own body. Si-Gung Frank is amazing as well! I spent months looking for the right place to study, with the right teacher, and when I read about the way he teaches on the school's website, I knew I had found the both. You will not be coddled, you will have to work, but you will be encouraged and skillfully instructed along the way. The other instructors and students are also great! So, if you're thinking about attending, just do it!

My two boys have been going to the Shao-lin Center for two and a half years and it's one of the best decisions we've ever made for them. Si-gung Frank is an excellent instructor who is firm yet patient with the kids while having fun with them too.

This isn't a sport/fitness martial arts school. Si-gung teaches kung fu for self-defense, stressing it's always the last resort yet giving the kids the tools to handle themselves if they ever find they are in a bad position. I have seen my kid's confidence levels and self-esteem grow as they have progressed in this martial art. There is nothing better than seeing the pride on your kid's face when they successfully pass a sash test or figure out a new skill.
