When I was 17, I was touched inappropriately/in a sexual way by one of the masters here during a training. While many students witnessed it, the master faced no disciplinary actions. The company refused to share CCTV footage, so the situation was unable to be escalated. Do not send your daughters here. My parents spent around $20,000 on my tuition here, because I was a student for more than ten years. We were disgusted with what happened.

First, it is very hard to find a facility that has high-quality carpet, high ceilings, and enough space for competitive Wushu athletes to train. Summit Wushu Academy has all of that. Second, it is even harder to find qualified Wushu coaches who are not only energized and knowledgeable, but also top-tier athletes and competitors themselves. This is very rare. Phillip and Peter Dang have keen eyes and can bring out the best in any student. They have a well-rounded curriculum and are not interested in just cycling students through, they want all their students to shine! Regardless of your age, sex, or level of experience, Summit Wushu Academy will challenge and inspire you to be a better martial artist.

Summit Wushu Academy is unlike any other martial arts school that I have seen. My son started at 4…read moreyears old and now as a 5 year old has shown immense improvement in a variety of skills. Sifu Phillip and Sifu Peter provide a fun environment to learn but instill values that are often lost in programs today: respect of teachers, respect of self, respect of peers, independence, high expectations, hard work and practice, and overall discipline of the mind and body. My son has learned how to be more respectful, work hard for things he wants, all while learning Traditional Wushu. His confidence has always been high, but he has learned an understanding at his age of his abilities that is gentle, caring and respectful of others. He is also learning regularly how to work as a team. As an adult my wife and I have begun taking evening classes where we are learning the basics. I'm beginning overweight, out of shape and not flexible, and they have been fantastic! While I can't always keep up, they keep the expectations high for me, while at the same time help to make modifications that will improve my ability as I strive to catch up with those that are well beyond my ability. Sifu Phillip and Sifu Peter are extremely encouraging of those of us jumping in as adults, showing a lot of respect, making it fun and challenging, and keeping expectations high.

My child trained for around four years and earned a Blue belt. OKS helped my child build their confidence physically and socially. They trained mainly in the Tigard dojo and Hillsboro dojo and visited several other locations for training events. However in the long run, I found the OKS does have issues. There's a certain arrogance and dismissive attitude that led to my child being left behind. There's also some disorganization in tracking each child's progress. My child was left behind on advancement for 18 months, after I repeatedly discussed the issue with multiple instructors. My child became so demoralized they lost heart for training so I pulled them out of the program at their own request. OKS could be great, but it needs to do better and address whatever internal training culture and organizational issues that led to this situation. They did long-term damage to my child's interest in Aikido, in martial arts, and possibly in organized sports. They lost my child's trust and my trust.

I think it will be a big part of how he enters teenage years here very soon. The instructors are some of the best I have seen.

They also have a great adult program for those that want to start or those that are experienced who wish to join a great school of Aikido.

All of our kids take TaeKwonDo, one of them takes both TKD and Bong Soo Han Traditional Hapkido. We have noticed improvement in each of them in their own ways. The programs here have improved and challenged our kids physically, mentally and emotionally, as each are at different levels in their life. They are finding it rewarding to engage and focus with the program. The programs are taught separately. The hapkido program is intense and fun. This program teaches falling, joint locks and throws in a self defense manner. All of the traditional hapkido philosophical principals like non-resistance and circular motion and the water principle are integrated into the program. Overall its been an excellent experience for kids and adults with learning new skills, improving fitness, building family togetherness, morale, commitment and motivation.

My son absolutely detested going to class but we made him go because of our contract. We tried to explain this to Grand Master Bettencort. The response always went back to the contract we signed. We explained that with our limited family budget ( my husband is permanently disabled) we felt our funds would be better spent helping our son pursue his music and band interests. We were lead to believe that Bettencourt's was not about the money, but about the kids doing something they are compassionate about. We finally quit paying and were sent to a collection agency. We paid them to protect our credit, but only to protect our credit. A word of advice, if your child is interested in classes here, do not sign a contract
