Great Kung Fu school for adults and kids! Lessons are Tuesdays and Thursday evenings and Saturday morning. My kids have been attending for a year now and we like the sense of community within the school. We like that Sifu David and the rest of the senior teachers are very encouraging to the kids. There is a strong sense of positive reinforcement and acknowledgement when the kids practice, which really motivates them to try harder. It's a good mix of traditional kung fu and lion dancing. Would recommend for anyone to come and try the class!

Fantastic Kung Fu school that is welcoming to all! My daughter and I have been training with Sifu David Leong for just under 5 years. We started as complete novices and now feel like kung fu is a central part of our lives. Sifu Leong and all the Sihing/Sijei work hard to create an environment that is more than just a workout space. For us, Northwest Kung Fu is our extended family. We have learned foundational aspects of Hung Gar Kung Fu as well as Lion Dancing. I've seen my daughter grow from a shy early teen to a strong young adult with confidence. And for this mid-40s dad, it has been life changing to learn so much about my own strength, training and health. If you are looking for a kung fu school that is no nonsense, welcoming and will teach you the art of kung fu, no need to look further. You won't regret stopping by. We didn't!

I help my friend do lion dances here. I'm not actually a part of the school but the main teacher is always welcoming. Highly recommend to those interested in trying a martial art. Especially if you're interested in Chinese culture.

Sifu Lueng is an amazing teacher, practiced in the traditional ways of Kung Fu. He's an inspiration to his students and to the entire community. I'm honored to call him friend

I've been a student of Sifu David Leong for over a year now and can't stop being impressed by his depth of knowledge and dedication to the martial arts. The school is expanding now and will include several more styles of martial arts as well as yoga classes at very reasonable rates. In fact, Master Leong has kept rates the same for the last 15 years. Unlimited classes are offered at $90 per month with no long term obligations.
