The (volunteer) Kung Fu Masters are paying forward a priceless gift bequeathed them (& to countless others) by Grandmaster Alan Lee, himself a figure of unquestionable international repute atop the martial arts world. The boot-camp style old-school physical workout would (admittedly) challenge an 18 y/o marine recruit (I know, I was one half-century ago), but the lessons in breathing, form, and movement have improved my bearing, overall confidence, health awareness, and inner strength. "Fighting" is 10% of Kung Fu, mental and physical health being the main goal. Most priceless of all, students are allowed to attend the rare Sunday afternoon health lectures offered by (92 years old) world renowned Grandmaster Lee as he shares 3000 years of Chinese martial arts & health wisdom accumulated by his 8 decades + of vigorous research, pursuit, and practice. IMHO this "once-in-a-lifetime" (albeit under-the-radar) treasure to be VIGOROUSLY pursued by anyone seeking an alternative to doctors, drugs, and expensive "gyms".

I am a massage therapist and acupuncturist, things that I learned at Wu mei made me move more efficiently and I found that my patients benefited too. Sifu Lo is a very patient and open teacher, he seems to say the right thing to the right person and has an individualized approach to teaching. It's seems he knows the right time to compliment and the right time to critique. Wu mei itself is a combination of both internal and external martial arts, we practice Qi gong to strengthen and enliven the body, as well as practical application of the movements.

Functions more like a cash cow trying to charge $150 for doing a belt test, then when someone fails, they charge $300 the second time.

Created a belt system for kung fu when there isn't supposed to be just to milk their students for all their money. Avoid.

I know that many people here expect fast results in a results-oriented metropolis, and all in a New York minute. Kung Fu is not like that. I chose Kung Fu because I am a person that believes in long term investments, and it has become an integral part of my life. I believe that it was partially fate that brought me to Bo Law Kung Fu. Before I started, I was a young, untamed, and very brash individual, and yes, admittedly unhealthy and out of shape. As I have grown over time, under the tutelage of Sifu Paul Koh, I feel that I have improved myself dramatically. I have gotten into better shape, gained much more confidence about myself, learned a lot more through Kung Fu about my own heritage as a Chinese-American, and learned to discipline myself across all facets of my life. All along the way, Sifu Koh was there to knock me down a couple of pegs when my ego got too big. One of the best parts is that it challenges me mentally; it never, ever gets boring because there is so much to learn. I highly encourage everyone to come try it out.. Whether you're sick of the boring gym and want a more mentally stimulating workout, or if you're ready to take the next step in your life.

The benefit of this change is that Tito is more free to impart his knowledge of best practices applicable for the streets and subways of NYC without being fettered by organizational bureaucracy from half a world away.

After spending 5 years at another Wing Tsun school, I felt I needed something a bit more organic…read more Gotham Kung Fu is a new start-up taught by Sifu Dean MacLeod, a large, serious looking fellow who often shows a giddy side during class. I have had many instructors, most of whom took themselves very seriously, but failed to demonstrate any interest in their student's advancement. Sifu Dean does not wish to simply drill his lessons into students on the hopes that they will eventually get it, but will take time to explain concepts and find a way to make us learn and improve. The way he structures his class is very different from my previous school, and I feel is better suited for my needs. He's able to teach each student at their particular level, or even steer lessons toward a students particular goal. He tries to stay away from the cookie-cutter one-size-fits-all lessons that are prevalent in most martial arts schools I have attended. Instead of practicing drills over and over for an hour I get customized lessons that cover my needs and flaws. That being said, he always finds time to make sure everyone gets to work with each other, allowing us to experience a higher student's abilities, or for us to practice our basics and instructor skills with newer students. It is a very personal atmosphere and everyone is friendly to one another. Egos are checked at the door and we all seem to share the same goal of learning Wing Tsun Kung Fu and improving our skills.

Beyond the therapeutic parts, he has a soothing manner, really seems to care about relieving the pain and the experience reduces stress. He has a holistic view of the pain and can discuss exercise and diet as tools to help also. Totally recommend him if you are lucky enough to get his time!
