What people are saying.

  • "Our son Mac has been training with Gordon and Smith for years, in the Shaolin staff class and now in kickboxing and kung fu. It is a wonderful opportunity for him to gain skills and strength in such a fun and supportive setting. Truthfully, their work "lifting mind, body and spirits" makes this community a better place to live."

  • “My son has fully enjoyed and been challenged by his classes with Gordon. He is also inspired and spends time outside of class practicing and refining what he is learned. He is learning body awareness, control, and lots of physical things, but more importantly, he is learning to love a discipline and pursue a passion with skill and persistence. ”

They have played an integral role in his upbringing, and for that I am eternally grateful. ”
