The Waterloo Kung Fu Academy was our top choice after researching which martial arts facility to join in the KW area.

The Academy is very welcoming and helpful for students starting a new discipline. The instructors are excellent teachers and the student/instructor ratio is better than anything we have seen before. There is a genuine care for the students and their development; my daughter has thrived mentally and physically since beginning her program. The facility is very clean and professional.

I would strongly encourage a visit and would highly recommend this business!

When I started at nine years old, I knew that in the long-term, I would benefit from kung-fu a lot. I needed to be more active as I was playing only seasonal ball hockey at the time. After 2 1/2 years I see myself to be very fit now.

I appreciate what kung-fu has done for my health as far as endurance, strength and flexibility…What I am learning in kung-fu transfers into everyday life….

I really do enjoy kung-fu and I hope to learn as much as I can from each one of my teachers as they guide me through valuable lessons and tests to come that will be kung-fu journey.

At the Waterloo Kung-Fu Academy, it’s not just some building that you train kung-fu in. It becomes a second home to you. I itch with anticipation for my classes because you don’t just train here, your friends are here. They support you and care for you and you eventually realize you’re part of a family. When things come difficult, instructors, friends and everyone will help you to overcome the obstacle. The focus, detail and dedication of others in the Academy starts to flow into everything else you do – school, home…anything. You’re not just part of an Academy…you’re part of a family too.

Thanks for teaching us lots of skills that will help us win our hockey games and the ability to focus on our game. We also may use some moves to help us in the warm-up and maybe scare off some of our opponents. Thank you.

When I am doing kung-fu, I feel peaceful, relaxed, happy and good. I feel these emotions, because at kung-fu I feel welcome, and nice. Kung-fu means a lot to me because I love doing it. I love the forms, the techniques, sparring, and I really feel passionate about it.

Along my kung-fu journey I have found out that with hard work comes great achievements….Being a part of this family has brought me courage and a very high self esteem. I have learned how to avoid being bullied and how to defend myself in a real self-defense situation.

When I began searching for a martial arts school, I registered for a one-time intro class to a number of schools. WKFA’s initial experience was by far the best. I was satisfied with the facilities they offered and in the session itself. I was pleasantly surprised to see that class began with a meditation session. The meditation session perfectly aligned with some of the reasons for why I wanted to start kung-fu in the first place.

I am a father and a husband, and I feel that is important to be able to protect my family in addition to myself. While I believe that most people in the world are good people, it is inevitable that there will always be a few who are not, and they may pose a risk to our safety. I can therefore say with certainty that number one reason I chose to study kung-fu is to be able to protect myself and my family.

Through my experience at kung-fu I’ve made tonnes of great friends, had such fun times, and really have learned to open up and put myself out there more….the gradings have taught me that, if you work hard, practice and do your best, you can accomplish any difficult task in front of you. When I first heard how long and tough the gradings were, I was nervous that I would fail; but by applying the lessons that kung-fu has taught me as well as a lot of training, I was able to be successful.
