We came in as potential clients for the youth classes and we were shocked how disorganized the…read moreclasses were. There was no seemingly structure. I think there are too many kids with different status (beginner vs advanced) and age ranges 4-16. When they broke into drills there was an instructor showing the 6 (ish) year olds the drill and then walked over to the older kids with another instructor. I was baffled. How do you leave little ones to do a partnered hitting drill by themselves? There were 5-6 instructors but they seemed to talk amongst themselves and not demonstrate or monitor the kids. Sandy stated they have students completing their degrees, who need hours coaching. So basically, volunteers who don't care. I'll keep my money. They need to reevaluate their business model and hire dedicated coaches.

Looking for a great Chinese martial arts experience for your young ones? Legend Kung Fu Academy…read morewill incorporate training self defense, discipline, and traditional wushu techniques for kids as young as 5. Give their trail class a go and see for yourself! We have been attending the academy for about 2 years now and have been satisfied with our experience so far. There are some painpoints but they aren't unique to Legend. Legend follows a traditional belt promotion structure where students will start from a white belt, then continue to promote to yellow, yellow black, green, green black, purple, purple black, blue, blue black, brown, brown black, red, red black, red double black, black, black red, then finally black double red. Each promotion requires with an increasing amount of skills and typically a new series of hand and weapon forms and sequences. Promotions are typically held once a month and students deemed ready are invited to participate. The promotion events are quite interesting as each student will take the floor to perform their sequence, gain feedback from the instructors, and compete at times for higher ranks (for small little prizes like medals, trophies, sweets or toys). It's a wonderful experience for the students to build confidence and surround themselves with other like-minded students driven toward the same goal of moving up to the next level. For students who are looking to participate in local, national, and international competitions for kung fu or wushu will have the opportunity to elevate themselves into Legend's competition team. This group focuses on building skills and techniques necessary to compete at a high level against other schools. Students in this team would also typically have additional classes that may be longer than the normal non-competitive group. The class structure for the typical student can be challenging to master the techniques without regular practice outside of class. Each class is about 45 minutes long and over half of it is spent on warm ups, stretches, games designed to improve footwork and speed, and fundamental skills like jumping, rolling, blocking, kicking and punching. The remainder of the time is split among all the different sequences. To add, the class ratio can sometimes be abysmal but other times can be fair. Realistically, your child may get 2 to 3 minutes of dedicated instruction for their routine. If only attending class once a week, practice for that routine will need to be heavily subsidized by outside training in order retain the knowledge and promote incremental improvements. It's mostly recommended to attend twice a week for best results but the cost can rack up quickly. An alternative to growth is to sign up for their summer camps which tend to focus solely on their routine for a whole week. By the end of the week, theoretically the student should have enough experience to get promoted to the next level. They have full and half day programs during the summer so check them out! One thing Legend does do really well is incorporate fun into their programs. The kids certainly have a great time and have ample opportunities to bond with their classmates and instructors. The academy also participates in local community events and performs at local schools to promote the art of wushu so there are plenty of opportunities for your child to get exposure in a public performance setting. In addition, given that a few of the instructors (Shifu Li and Shifu Zhou) speak Mandarin fluently, upon request, they may be able to provide instruction in Mandarin for your Mandarin learners. Otherwise English will be used. Overall, if you're looking for a well balanced physical activity for your child with the opportunity to learn some self protection and body control, Legend Kung Fu Academy is a great institute to consider!

She's made new friend and everyone is respectful. The staff is great, they know each kids name. They also have this awesome rule where parents are only allowed to watch the last week of the month to see the progress tour kid has made. Another awesome rule is that parents are not to get involved or give instruction to their kids. If you do, you will be told. I love this! You don't have to deal with any obnoxious parent trying to direct their kid. This place builds confidence and teaches. My husband loves the adult classes. The people are progressing and the environment is friendly. Make-up classes are allowed. They also have a Zen planner app where you can reserve your spot. The place looks clean and there is plenty of parking. Prices are reasonable. I would recommend this place for adults and kids. It's a great place with awesome staff.

We are so grateful for the valuable teachings from Master Nile and Master Sunny over these two years. While Taekwondo is often associated with physical fitness and martial arts, I truly appreciate how they weave in important life lessons. There's always a thoughtful "topic of the week," and they consistently incorporate it into each session in a meaningful way. The environment is warm, welcoming, and incredibly organized. The instructors are always available to answer questions, and the assistant instructors deserve a huge shout-out as well--they are so encouraging, motivating, and patient with the kids. This has been our favorite after-school class so far, and we couldn't be happier!
