Master Sonny Le has infused very refined and skilled techniques into the art of Kung Fu. Disciples of the Academy are actively engaging their physical bodies while grasping mental concepts such as deeper concentration, critical thinking and coordination between the mind and body. Throughout my time under the teachings of Master Sonny Le, I have developed a better sense of my strengths, abilities and self-confidence. The Academy provides a welcoming environment with other students which recognizes our weaknesses in order to overcome them, encouragement to keep us moving forward and the knowledge necessary in order to achieve our own personal goals. My time at North York Kung Fu Academy has enabled me to fulfill my own ambitions and I have successfully completed the Single Kung Fu nunchuku (Shao Zi Gun) and am currently pursuing the intermediate level for the Kung Fu nunchaku and Wing Chun self-defense system.

I have been training with sifu teacher kenny for 1 year now…read moreWing chun kung fu I feel very lucky to have found sifu kenny as a teacher He is very knowledgeable in wing chun kung fu and possibly others but wing chun is the focus He is patient and focused and knowledgeable and has a peaceful nature as martial arts is about protecting your self or others under your care only as a last resort it is to the point if used no jumping around and doing flowerly hands = movements that show off etc. Wing chun is direct and to the point with very little wasted movements or openings that is the goal avoid if you can or protect yourself if you got no choice I am in my 50s now and i trained other martial arts when i was younger and i took 20 years off i see the difference that wing chun offers. I like to learn private 1 on 1 or with another student on occasions with sifu kenny smaller classes gives me the opptunity to ask questions and see things more close up this is HUGE for me as most schools train in big classes and dont offer 1 on 1 teaching option this is harder to find but this takes learning to a different level i feel. Thank you sifu kenny i am honored to have met you and be taught by you and thank you for spending the time to teach this chinese martial art to others so that the spirit of wing chun stays with us and we rember the history and contributuons we learned from the chinese culture in regards to martial arts and inner peace.

Most people who bother with the matter at all would agree that the reputation of Chinese martial…read morearts (kung fu) is in a bad way. Perceived as being either whimsical or esoteric beyond good measure, many dispel kung-fu as a serious fighting art. The above-mentionned is not the case at Bamboo Kung Fu, the best martial arts school I have been to. After 3 years of previous training, I realized that although I had acquired some vague physical base, I had only foggy ideas as to how these techniques could be applied. The rigorous training at Bamboo is geared towards the essence of techniques (that is what cannot not be for the technique to work); this avoids plateaux, meaningless training, or even worse, training that is harmful. The bottom line is that Bamboo Kung Fu successfully combines pragmatism, tradition and gruelling physical regimens. Pragmatism because techniques must retain martial value. Tradition...Why throw out the window what has been passed down, refined, and proven to work? Finally, gruelling because a physical base is essential. All this is done under the umbrella of comprehensive, inclusive and friendly coaching.

It gives you a super intense work-out and I always feel so stressful and relaxed after (even if I dread coming here sometimes after a long, hard day). The teachers/employees here are super nice and they will walk you through everything. The students that join the classes are also very welcoming. Do not be afraid to step out of your comfort zone and do not be afraid to ask questions and push your limit. They're all supportive and they want to push you to succeed. They won't make you do more that you can't. Definitely give this place a try if you're trying to look for some fun way to work out! P.S., they have classes for kids too. I always see kids having a blast and leaving this place happy.

You can feel it when you practice. Everyone involved has their own unique approach to the source material, which is very authentic and old fashioned. The Kung Fu styles taught are Choi Lee Fut and Do Pi, both southern styles brought directly from China by the late founder. There are also classes to learn san shou if you're more interested in a modern fighting style. But this isn't a place to learn the most modern techniques and become a prize fighter. It's a place to connect to a community of fantastic people, and to be a part of the preservation of a rich and interesting history. The school is also not-for-profit, so your low monthly fees only go to keeping the place running, no one is paid for their services to the school. All the instructors teach because it is important to them, and you can tell when you're there. As someone with a background in another kind of martial art that's much more business oriented and profit driven, I want to say that it makes a huge difference when something is driven by real human passion rather than money. Joining this school has been one of the most enjoyable decisions I've ever made, and I intend to be a part of it for as long as it's around and I'm able.

This was my first time here, and out of about 5 other kickboxing gyms I've tried, this was by far the best. We started with a 3 minute warm-up with consisted of free style of your choosing. Then we started on two minute rounds on several different types of bags, bags I've never even used or even seen before. I loved being able to try out different bags like this, which gave you a better opportunity to learn technique. I'm between some rounds we did some push ups or jumping jacks, and at the very end of class we did sprints and side sprints. There were a total of 8 people in this morning's class, which I feel like was the perfect amount. I really don't like going to classes where there are too many people and the instructor cannot work with you one on one at all and show you proper technique. I get exercise fatigue quite easily, was getting a little too winded, then Craig handed us some Vitamin C drops which seemed to help wonders. I can't wait to come back in two weeks!
