Master Lee stands out as one of the most skilled and dedicated instructors I've had the privilege of learning from. He is highly knowledgeable, talented, and genuinely passionate about teaching students of all ages. His patience and friendliness create an encouraging learning environment. I initially sought out Kung Fu San Soo to find inner peace and to manage the anxiety and anger I was experiencing after a personal tragedy. Since beginning my training, it has greatly helped reduce my anxiety and completely eliminated the anger I once felt. If you're looking for personal growth and self-improvement, I highly recommend Master Lee's Kung Fu San Soo. Not only is Master Lee exceptional, but his entire team of instructors shares his dedication, talent, and supportive approach.

[Review #800] 2023-088…read more On my 800th review, coincidentally it's also my 88th for 2023, I'm giving it to Lion's Pride Kung Fu because Asians/Chinese believe 8 (八) sounds like fortune (發). I learned of the kung fu (功夫) studio through my son's classmate's mom, Lisa W., who takes classes with her son. I was really impressed with a video of her in a recent competition so I had my son take a couple of trial lessons to garner his interest, especially since he's been going to Chinese school to learn Cantonese... he's been interested in all things Chinese. We met Aaron on the first trial day; super friendly guy, answering all my questions & sharing his personal experience that I want to sign-up too (sadly, I injured my neck & most recently my shoulder that I'm holding off for now). During the week long trial sessions, M was literally learning trial by fire during the 2 days he attended. I thought I knew my son's capabilities & limitations, but he proved me wrong. I thought 師傅 (Sifu) Jeremy Hector would deconstruct the exercise for the newcomers, instead they're expected to follow along with 師傅 providing the necessary adjustments/corrections. I expected M to be frustrated (he was), but persevered & pushed through it, as did my husband. 師傅 is strict & professional, yet his teaching style still keeps the kids & adults engaged. Can't say it looks fun, but I'm very impressed with the class work ethic. In a short month, M learned the "Stance Exercise" ("步法"; 20 moves) & "Salute Act" (42 moves). It's quite impressive for an 8 YO to remember the order of each move & his fluidity as he transitions from one to the next! My husband also signed up so he can get some exercise in; they attend twice per week in the beginner family session on Monday & Wednesday evenings; no Saturday mornings due to Chinese school. I like the idea of combining Chinese school & the kung fu studio's teachings & customs, particularly on morality. In traditional Chinese schools of martial arts, it's not just a means of self-defense, or physical & mental training, but also a system of ethics aka "martial morality" (武德), which focuses on 2 aspects: 1) virtue of mind & 2) virtue of deed. The 1st is meant to cultivate the inner harmony between the emotional mind (心: heart) & the wisdom mind (慧; intelligence); 2) concerns social relations, with the eventual goal of "no extremity" (無極) -- closely related to the Taoist concept -- where both emotions & wisdom are in harmony. In Chinese school, respect (尊重) is taught, to your family, elders, others, & yourself. My rambunctious 8 YO is slowly growing into his own: respectful, dedicated, honorable. I'm so proud of M's recent growth & change for the better. 師傅 Hector has been a martial artist for most of his life, devoting over 2 decades, studying various Chinese Kung Fu styles with well-respected masters. Lion's Pride offers traditional Kung Fu, as well as training in several styles of Chinese martial arts, self-defense, weapons, & Tai Chi. Some styles (as listed on their website): * Northern Shaolin * My-Jong Law Horn * Tai Chi & Seven Star Praying Mantis * Yang, Chen, & Do Gar Tai Chi Chuan * Classical Chinese Weaponry (練兵器) * Chi Kung * Traditional Chinese Lion Dance If you're looking to learn Chinese Kung Fu (功夫) or a change in how you exercise, come check out Lion's Pride Kung Fu. 師傅 Hector provides his guidance & extensive knowledge to exercise your mind, body, & spirit, alongside a whole group of supportive friends to help you succeed!

He attends class 3-4 times a week for the 45 minute training sessions routinely, much like going to a gym, not being relegated to one simple class, but garnering frequency in learning Kung Fu. I like the flexible format of this school. Kung-Fu is a long term martial art, not about belt promotions, nor expediting sparring, competition and the glitzy weapons or flashy moves. It's what I really like about Kung Fu. Our son has leaned how to count in Chinese here. He went from a beginner who knew nothing to a student who can at least memorize the complete 20 sequenced set of positions / moves to do them with fluid grace correctly, which I'm impressed by. I recommend this school still, after being here for a year. I'm sure the best has yet to come and it's a long road for continual development, improvement and new aspects (like Lion Dancing or Ancient Chinese Weapons or even sparring with other students) to patiently await earning a way towards as a student. I'm very satisfied by Sifu Hector's ability to teach my son Kung Fu, given the fact that he's not the best or easiest student of anything at age 6 when it comes to focus, discipline and putting forth focused efforts.

Training with Sifu-Don and the SoCal Wing Chun Academy has been a life-changing experience for my…read moreson and I. My wife and I want our kids to be involved in some type of sport or physical activity outside of daily school. My son had been a dedicated club soccer player for a few yrs but COVID put a damper on that so we were looking for something different he might like. I, personally, had always been a Bruce Lee fan and loved the art of Wing Chun but had never taken part in it. My son was 12 yrs old and had only done a little wrestling as far as self defense so I signed us up for a free week of classes. Usually a 12 yr old would be in the Youth classes but my son was allowed to train alongside me (46 yrs) in the adult classes with grown men and women. As soon as our first class was over he said, "Man, I can't wait to do this again!' He and I were hooked. We continued on for an entire yr together where we trained and fought alongside each other. I had no idea the impact it would have on him to see me (his own father) take my own ups n downs throughout the process of learning. He witnessed me get humbled many times during trainings (hard for a father to do/admit) but I knew I wanted him to see that I was willing to let him see me fail so he could also see me continue on and not give up. It took incredible discipline and dedication for us both but our bond and relationship as father and son took immense strides forward and watched my 12 yr old boy become an artist of Wing Chun during that time. He developed a love of the craft and discipline that Sifu-Don Presto and the many other coaches instilled in him along the way: Samba, Mike, Gabe, Charles, Jamere, Kevin, others. All great men with great character that held my son accountable but also gave him great praise and encouragement when earned. This was the longest my son and I had done anything together, how incredibly rewarding as a father. When I needed to take a break during summer, Sifu-Don offered my son a position as a coach for his Youth classes on Mon-Tues-Wed evenings. He was honored at the opportunity and jumped right in. Working with both, adults and young children (ages 6-12 yrs), men, women, girls, boys, has taught him so much as a young man and character development. Sifu-Don Presto and the staff of coaches at SoCal Wing Chun Academy (Murrieta) have made a life-changing impact on my son and I and have ignited a passion for the martial arts in him that I never saw coming. My wife and I are so incredibly thankful that we made this connection and hope other families may take advantage of such an opportunity. Stop by SoCal Wing Chun Academy today. -Tyler King
