The academy describes Kung Fu as the traditional Chinese martial art from which many other Asian fighting styles are derived, covering empty hand techniques, kicks, blocks, throws, joint locks, weapons, and healing skills. Training at the school begins with a formal Chinese salute and continues with traditional stance training, such as Horse Stance, which is used to build leg strength, balance, and endurance. Classes follow traditional hand forms passed down from ancient masters, and the program combines aerobic conditioning, muscular development, and self-defense practice. The school's stated mission centers on helping students build confidence and focus while improving fitness, with an emphasis on mental self-discipline, honesty, and manners alongside physical training.

The academy is run as a family-oriented program with professional instructors, and the owner teaches that meeting each student's individual needs is the primary goal. The school promotes its program as one that increases stamina, energy, and overall health while teaching a broad and traditional system of martial arts that goes beyond what narrower styles such as Karate or Tae Kwon Do cover.

The academy holds a rating of 5.00 based on 3 reviews.
