See our classes in action and meet Master Johnny before making any commitment. We're proud of what we do and want you to see it firsthand.
Johnny Shieh is a Wudang Dragon Gate 19th generation lineage holder (Daoist name Yuan Tao) with 26 years of martial arts training. Master Johnny has dedicated his life to teaching kids the values of discipline, respect, and perseverance through authentic traditional Kungfu.
"Every child has potential. My job is to help them discover it through martial arts. When a parent tells me their child is more confident, focused, or standing up to bullies, that's what makes this worthwhile."
Yes. Safety is our top priority. All classes are supervised by experienced instructors, and we teach techniques in a controlled, step-by-step way. We emphasize proper form, respect, and self-control to prevent injuries.
Absolutely. Our program is designed for beginners as well as experienced students. We match training to each child's ability level so they can learn at their own pace and build confidence from day one.
We focus on building discipline, focus, and respect—skills that carry over to academics, home life, and social interactions. Many parents tell us they see improved attention, better listening, and increased responsibility after just a few weeks.
Yes! Martial arts training naturally boosts self-esteem through achievable goals, positive encouragement, and skill mastery. Even our shyest students often become leaders in class over time.
No. In fact, the opposite is true. We teach students to use martial arts only for self-defense and to walk away from trouble. Respect and self-control are at the heart of our training.
We welcome children starting at 4 years old and group them with peers of similar ages to ensure the best learning environment.
Most families start with 1–2 classes per week. This allows children to progress steadily without feeling overwhelmed, while still having plenty of time for school and other activities.
We offer a special two-week FREE trial plus a complimentary Dragon Gate t-shirt so your child can experience the benefits firsthand. Just click the "Get Started" button and choose a convenient class time.
