I am having an exceptional experience so far! The Shifu's are knowledgeable, helpful and are there to teach and make you better with individual attention being shown to all students. I am really happy to have joined this school to learn traditional Shaolin Kung Fu from the best! Thank you Kung Fu Dragon USA!! read more

Great studio with very high quality teachers (Shifus). Our kids have been going there for years and love it. Highly recommended.

Great overall experience, especially with the accommodations and onboarding process. The shifus are friendly, fun, and knowledgeable, and they cater to each student based on their skill set, finding areas of improvement. More shifus assist the class sessions where more help is needed. Each week of the month has a different curriculum or focus, so it's variable and not routine. Make-ups are super flexible as well. Pricing is fair and competitive. There are plans/options to go by month or years, the latter where it's cheaper. There's room for growth for every student here, and I encourage newbies to take a couple of free trial classes! read more

I can't believe I have wrote a review for this place. My daughter joined about two years ago and she was nervous at first but absolutely loves it. The skills she learns she will have for a life time. The Shifus are all amazing and she has develop a great relationship with each of them. Their camp during the summer is fun and allows for learning different skills that go beyond just Kung fu. Not to mention the great friendships she has develop since attending. This is a wonderful place. read more

Awesome and attentive shifus! My 5 year old began attending late March and has loved it. She looks forward to training every week. All the shifus train on discipline and respect and give the right amount of temperament to the little ones to keep it fun and productive. The trainings have boosted my daughter's confidence while excelling to achieve the next level (belt). Greatly recommend Kung Fu Dragon!! read more

we joined this based on friend recommendation even though our kids were going for martial arts at different institute. what we loved here is kids are given proper attention. They are encouraged to practice proper stance and active participation. as compared to other institute kids are more involved and enjoying it, also the physical activity in each session is much more. SHIFU here are very friendly and kids love practicing with them. we also liked the fact that kids are not promoted just based on number of classes attended and they are accessed for skills learnt. will recommend it to other families. read more

The shifus are serious about their craft. The kids appear to learn a lot and also have fun at the same time. My daughter loves it! We just renewed for another year. read more

My daughter has taken an interest in Kung Fu and after researching a couple of schools, we decided to give KFD a try. The trial class was easy to set up and after the class, she wanted to sign up immediately! I liked that after warm-ups, the class was split into smaller groups so the students would have more attention. Shifu Jacob went over all of the information, and we never felt pressured to enroll. I really appreciate the flexibility of their schedule/classes, a major plus IMO. After a couple of weeks, we have officially signed up and my daughter couldn't be more excited:) read more

This was the very first time my kids experienced martial arts, and we decided to sign them up for a trial class at Kungfu Dragon USA in Pleasanton. Like most kids trying something new, they were a bit shy and hesitant before the class started. But, by the end of that first class, both of them felt completely at ease. They were comfortable with the environment, and also liked instructor Shifu Long and were excited to come back and learn more Kungfu. One of the things that stood out to me the most was how the instructors, especially Shifu Long, paid attention to each child individually. Even though it was a group class, they made sure every child got personal guidance. They watched carefully and helped the kids understand exactly what they needed to improve--whether it was their stance, jumps, kicks, or punches. And the best part was, they did it in a very friendly and encouraging way, which helped build my kids' confidence. Shifu Long has a very calm and kind approach that made my kids feel safe and motivated. He didn't rush through anything and took time to explain even the small details, making sure each child understood. His teaching style is very child-friendly, which made the whole experience fun. You can really tell he has a lot of experience working with kids and knows how to make learning enjoyable for them. Overall, I'm really happy with our first experience. It's rare to find a teacher who not only teaches well but also connects with children and inspires them to learn. Shifu Long did exactly that. I would recommend Kungfu Dragon USA in Pleasanton to parents who are looking for a positive and professional place for their kids to start learning martial arts. read more

We have been debating between Kungfu and karate for our daughter - not anymore. Shortly after she started her first trial lesson with Shifu Jacob, we know that she was going to choose Kungfu. She has done dancing, gymnastics, and other physical activities, but we have never seen her so attentive and so happy while in a class. She is very inspired to continue with Kungfu training and earn her belts. Every Shifu we met at the studio is professional, observant and addresses our questions patiently. We also like the time flexibility of the program, which makes it easier for students to plan their schedules. We are so glad to find Kungfu Dragon USA! read more

My daughter said that this master's skills are very good, but half an hour of driving on the highway is really a bit far read more

Fantastic first Kung Fu class for my 6-year-old! The instructors were patient and made learning fun--he can't wait to go back!

This place is full of positive energy. Since my son signed up with Kung Fu Dragon USA two years ago it has never fail to amaze me. The facility of the school is hands down the best of its kind, which is also a proof of its past success. Teaching quality is high and consistent. Since fund 13 years ago KFD USA seems never slack. The attitude and passion of masers are no ordinary. They are truly living examples of Shao Lin spirit. The school teaches how to live more than how to win. The training focuses on self disciplines and improvement in mental and physical strength & resilience. You will have to come to watch it yourself to really appreciate something passed down from more than 1000 years ago being practiced daily in this beautiful valley. The school runs a regular program as well a program for more committed students. Both are fun and exciting in its own way. My son does both. The demo teams get plenty of opportunities to perform at local festivals and celebrations and are always well accepted. The school has also built a growing and caring community over the years among students and their families. Anniversaries, birthday, graduation parties are a norm, which we enjoy very much. read more

Kungfu Dragon at Pleasanton has been a great experience for my 6 year old so far. Trainers are very professional and teach the kids in very fun ways which is the best part about it.

We tried 3 kung fu places and even jujitsu and this place is an obvious winner. We like that the shifu actually knows kung fu, each session is 45 mins instead of 30 mins, and it's mixed age. So it means the younger ones can progress based on merits. They also let us have the 2nd trial that I appreciate. Will update more as we take more classes. read more

We met Kungfu Dragon in the Livermore lunar new year showcase and was really amazed by their performance. We immediately took a trial class and my son loved it! The shifus there are very professional and most of them are kungfu masters from shaolin temple where Jet Li grew up. They are also very good with young kids. Our 4-year-old son loves his kungfu class! As parents, we feel this school has a lot more disciplines and respect to the real kungfu. We switched our son to this kungfu school from another one where the classes were more for fun. read more

Our son has been coming here for 6 months now since he tried the free class for 4 year olds. Since then our son has developed so much physically and mentally. We were amazed how much interest he had with Kung Fu. He's so into it that he spends most of his free time practising his forms. We started with a 2x/week class and has now progressed to 4x/week. 2 for his regular classes and another 2 for his youth demo team classes. We appreciate the healthy and friendly atmosphere that the teachers have established in this center. read more

Great staff, very friendly but disciplined environment. Amazing, well equipped facility

This place was recommended by a friend of ours and it's been an amazing experience! The class is small and my son can get a lot of one on one attention from his Shifu (Master).

I have my 2 kids learning some martial arts for the first time at KungFu Dragon USA in Livermore. Initially they are like strangers to this and hard to remember all the "actions" but later on, they kind of getting excited and show some interests. Great. read more

My daughter is very interested in kung fu recently, so after doing research online and a best friend's recommendation, I took her here for a free trial class. They have three masters to split the whole class to separate small groups and each kids has plenty amount of attentions. Also, the whole class seems fun and dynamic with lots of things going on. My daughter enjoyed the whole class and her first reaction after class was how short it was! So, I signed her up right away. She becomes one of the dragon warriors and so excited to come again. What's more, the flexibility of their policy and class schedules are a plus! You can come whenever there is an appropriate class and you don't have to fix your class time. Even if you missed classes, you can do make up class at your own convenience. That definitely helps a lot!!! read more

We Kung Fu Dragon USA on Yelp and couldn't be more impressed by Sifu Long and his staff. For the Beginner 1 class, they start out the class by bringing their attendance card to Sifu Long while saying "Ne How Sifu" (How are you teacher?). They then repeat the following phrases: Respect your teacher Respect your parents Always do your best Never say can't Use Kung Fu only for good They do warm up exercises then go through with the correct forms. Sifu Long is very caring and entertaining. He knows how to encourage and keep the students engaged. He uses humor to make his points. On Sundays, there are usually 2-3 other more advance students assisting. The back garage door is opened during class to allow fresh air in. This place is not stuffy or smelly like other similar establishments. On Halloween they hosted a party for all students with games, snacks, and food. They are also performing at the Pleasanton parade in Dec. I would highly recommend checking out Kung Fu Dragon USA if you're looking for a class for your kids. This is a great place to learn discipline and self-defense...as well pick up some Mandarin. Btw, they offer a free trial class and a generous Yelp check-in offer. read more

I signed my 4-year-old son up for a trial class at Kungfu Dragon-Pleasanton. I'm so glad I did! I was blown away by the class and the staff. We were greeted by Shifu Jacob who came across as really warm and welcoming. After some whole group activities, the class broke off into smaller groups. My son spent most of the time with Shifu Long who my son just adored. The class was high energy and the pacing was perfect for little ones with short attention spans. There were a number of instructors and older student helpers so the kids were well supervised and got a lot of individual attention. The instructors were very engaging and playful with the kids. My son had a blast! We obviously signed up for more classes. I know my son will have a lot of fun, make some new friends and learn a lot! read more

My son started in the Little Dragon class.l in San Ramon. We have been coming to this location while they move the San Ramon location. I cannot recommend this place enough. The Shifus are an answer to my prayers. They have the perfect combination of discipline and grace to keep it fun for the younger kids. They teach KungFu but more importantly teach the kids how to be good people. I happily drive from Concord to Pleasanton school because of how this place is run and because I want people like these Shifus to help shape my kids into good human beings. read more
