It was hard to find the school on Yelp but I finally found it by typing in the name of the school…read more I came to this school 3 years ago and was rejected because my son was only 3 and half, I enrolled him in a Taekwondo school nearby and after 3 years he got his black belt. After many thousands of dollars I realized my son didn't gain much from it. I came back to this school and enrolled and it's been about 5 months and I have to admit he's learned more in these 5 months than the 3 years at the other school. Not only is he learning much more but his confidence level has improved especially his social skills - being such a shy kid. I see that he actually enjoys and look forward to going to Kung Fu class. I like this school in that it has many instructors so your kid gets the attention as opposed to the old school where's there's too many students and only one instructor. I also like that they teach in Vietnamese where they learn the names of the forms and every move. Even better is their price is cheapest of all schools I've been to, no test fees! I highly recommend this martial school for your kids!

Sifu Eric teaches you two styles, Kali & Wing Chun. His classes are dual immersion training and I really like that. I really liked the hand movements in both styles. Sometimes he throws a lot of information at you but I like that. The gym is a good size and has heavy bags. The environment is laidback. I recommend everyone to take this. It's never too late to learn something new. Come join and make the school grow.

We learn both Wing Chun and Filipino martial arts and I like how Sifu explains techniques with detail and also shows how they apply in real life situations. The small classes and students are great so the warm environment keeps me comming back. I recommend this class for anyone who wants to learn this art and is serious about training.

He gained confidence in his abilities at the studio. With the smaller group sizes, it's definitely a more added advantage for focused improvement on form and learning new techniques. Aside from martial arts, there are important values continually being taught - like respect of others, respect of self, kindness, patience, self control, anger management even! The class time seems longer than other places, but it's truly for the kids to get more comfortable with the studio, its equipment and to practice in a safe environment. There is plenty of free time before and after of when the actual instruction begins and a little break in between with healthy snacks. The kids get a kick out of seeing Master Ted rip an apple in half, or a banana without squishing it. Even my daughter, who wasn't taking the class but was allowed to "play and be part" of the class misses going to the studio. It was such a great way for them to burn tons of energy and have so much fun. I wish we could have continued, but our schedules started conflicting and we had to stop going. Thank you Master Ted for giving the gift of learning martial arts.

Coaches - This is key and the coaches are able to adjust the all skill levels and ages. They are firm but fair and work to build your kids confidence. Jean - Jean is always following up to get feedback on his program. He truly cares about the kids and wants to make sure they have a positive experience. In one instance my kid didn't want to go because they had a bad experience with a partner. Jean recognized this and personally called me and made adjustments so we could come back. Value - You won't break the bank with his program. Pony Baseball and AYSO Soccer cost more for a season after dues and equipment than with this program. Above all else, your kid comes out more confident than ever, resilient and with tremendous grit.... Attributes lacking with today's youth.

In fact, maybe he shares too many of them as it it easy to get overwhelmed here but it is a satisfying feeling that there is going to be something new to learn every time you come here. There is so much to learn here that you can actually pick a sub-specialty within the style, nei kung for strength, chi kung for energy and healing, several different fighting specialties even ones designed for specifically females and children. After a while you can also ask to learn about acupuncture, acupressure and herbal medicine and treatments.

I think…read more I came to Hong-Gia thinking I'd learn to kick some butt but it actually offered me more than I could ever imagine. After taking Tae Kwon Do and Aikido, I felt like everything was so systematic and couldn't really prepare me for anything that occurred in real life. Hong-Gia is a Taoist Kung-Fu type of martial arts that was taught in the monasteries on an island off of Vietnam called La Phu Son. The basics of this style are to develop body protection and strength. I've taken a few martial arts but Hong-Gia is the one that never emphasized on how high you kicked or how hard you could break something. Everything is fluid and comes with ease. Breathing is a very important concept to this style. But in the end you could do some amazing damage. It was never a competition in anything..we were taught certain movements and what positions to take if in an uncompromising position. The 10 years I was there, I studied nei kung and qikong. Nei kung gave me strength and qikong gave me focus and better physical and mental health. I also studied the snake style as well as double sword, single sword and dao. I had severe asthma as a kid and after a few years at Hong-Gia, I now live an inhaler-less life! They offer courses for adults and children and at $60 adults, $30 kids a month (you could go unlimited), it really is a good deal. Hong-Gia is taught both in English and Vietnamese and Hong-Gia actually has locations all over the world including Russia. I'm kinda bummed I no longer have time to practice but if you do want to learn a martial arts that isn't all about rules and limitations and you want to learn how to handle/defend yourself in real life situations, Hong-Gia can definitely teach you it!
