Master Lambert has been one of the greatest Teachers in my forty years of being on this planet. What he and his disciples have provided to me could never be repaid. I strive to have a life of peace and prosperity that Sifu and Simo share. As I said before there are no words that will encapsulate what these people mean to me. Everyone has different experiences and I will say this is one you would have to see yourself because "Shaolin Wing Chun is a living, breathing, entity."

I started out looking for something different than just the punching and kicking martial arts…read moreschool that you can find anywhere. My search led me to Meng's Martial Arts of Cincinnati and Shaolin Wing Chun taught by Master John Lambert. Master Lambert is an excellent teacher and human being. He will teach you to punch and kick, but also will teach you so much more about yourself. Master Lambert's depth of knowledge of martial arts, Shaolin Wing Chun, meditation, and self-defense is second to none. If you are looking for an authentic and genuine experience then this is the place for you.

So far so good! It's 2021 and we're slowly recovering from the panorama (yes, panorama lol). Inside…read moredining, theaters, and gyms are opening back up. The McKie Rec Center is no different. I recently moved into the area and heard about the weight room. I paid for a 3 month membership, which was $45 dollars. I believe this includes access to all Cincy rec centers but will need to test that out. The 45 bucks gives me access to the basketball court and the weight room. COVID SAFETY: For now, you have to call and schedule a time to go into either facility. They are keeping the number of people very low so I appreciate that since the weight room is fairly small. You must call and book a time on the hour for the hour. My only complaint is there isn't an online portal or email I can send, I have to call, and if you know me - I HATE calling anyone haha! Oh well. It's a great alternative for me when I'm not feeling like running outside. It's walking distance and opens up at 8am so I can get my morning burn before the day starts. Glad to have it available!

I think the Cinci Recreation Commission facilities are a great benefit to the city and fully…read moresupport their inclusion in the city budget, etc. Unfortunately there are a lot of things competing for the same funds, and certain communities draw the short straw. And, unfortunately, McKie suffers from that. Most of the equipment is old and beat up, but in working order. They are not open weekends, but they are open late enough on weekdays to get in a workout after work. McKie also lacks a few amenities that some of the better funded CRC centers have such as a running track. Now, those are a few of the negatives to get out of the way, and unfortunately they are things the folks at McKie just can't do anything about. Now, the good things. First off the people are really great. Everyone is very friendly, and not because they are looking at you like a walking commission. I have seen people being trained there, but I'm not sure how that is set up, definitely not in a high-pressure way. They have classes in martial arts and I think I've seen some women walking around with yoga mats. And the other big tradeoff for the gently used equipment is that an adult membership is only $25 a YEAR!! A main charge for the center seems to be the programs for area youth. I know there are regular and structured basketball times, and I've seen younger children occupying the front room doing arts and crafts projects. Also, in the summer, McKie hosts a number of day camp activities as well as swimming lessons. The front room also hosts community organizations such as the Community Council and acts as a jumping off point for things like the Great American Cleanup. So, as I mentioned, the CRC community centers are asked to do so many worthwhile things, and do them on a shoestring budget. The only reason I give this a 3 star review here is because if it had a bigger budget, I need room to go to 4 or 5.
