SIFU Lee and SIFU Chris are wonderful instructors. I wish I didn't have to move away. They teach you the necessary means within martial arts. They are patient and outstanding martial artists. I wish I still lived in the area, just to attend their training. Definitely a great place for kids and adults of all ages.
