Awesome place to train your body and mind!! Great instructors who are willing to teach you authentic martial arts with high energy in great welcoming atmosphere. Very clean school and zoom classes are so convenient for make training happen even when you can’t get to the school. I’m a very happy student and look forward too classes every week.
I was looking for a new school that trained Shaolin Kung Fu after having a bad experience at another school. This school was all I was looking for and more. This is a traditional school, with dedicated caring teachers. my children could not have better role models. If you are looking for martial arts training that can be applied to real life situations, and a school that will care about you and your family, look no further. This is the school for you.
You get a great work out while also learning to defend yourself. There’s a high level of camaraderie among the students.
An outstanding school with outstanding people and a lot of love Good vibes here.
Was great for my kid for quite a few years. Unfortunately, lately it has turned into a money grab. Same repetitive material with no focus on teaching new material to attain the next level or sash. They will happily do private lessons to teach the material for a cost. Hopefully, they will one day return to their core values.
Greg and his team performed a lion dance at my daughter’s sweet sixteen. It was absolutely amazing! We were all captivated by the presentation. ...so professional! The crowd especially loved the interactive nature of the show. For many it was their first exposure this beautiful Chinese tradition and it is surely one they will never forget. Awesome!
Dedicated teachers with a passion for what they do. My journey with this school started over 15 years ago and although my life journey has taken me geographically away I can attest to the quality of instructors you will meet and engage with. To help set context for this review, I previously was a travelling student for this school (I lived hours away and would travel just to train with them). While I havent been able to train recently with them in the past years I was able to reconnect and start training remotely again. Here is a summary of what to expect with the school and some of my personal opinions as well:1. They are old school, run a tough school, and will push you. This isnt a school for you if you arent dedicated to training or want to attain a black sash in a year.2. The instructors care and are heavily invested in their students and their well-being. This is a close nit group of instructors who are well respected in martial arts circles in NY. Personally, they are high quality individuals who show patience, are humble, and care about their students.3. They maintain high expectations for their students looking for the quality in the student and pushing them to grow both physically and mentally. This isnt just a paycheck for them but a lifestyle.4. They do offer classes for kids which help provide guidance and instill discipline (something unfortunately many kids need these days). However, they do want parents to be involved and you will see families training together!This is an amazing school with dedicated instructors... dont let this school pass you by.
I’ve been training here for 8 years and it’s been the best experience of my life! I’m in killer shape and really feel like I can defend myself. Traditional arts are where it’s at!
Authentic Shaolin has great knowledgeable teachers who can back up their words with their abilities, they have friendly inspiring students who are always encouraging, and a traditional atmosphere that makes you really appreciate everything you learn here. 👍
Best Martial Arts School in Long Island, NY. Great team atmosphere, family owned, makes us feel like family as well. You will learn quickly, and safely, this potent and ancient art, with modern application to tactical self defense. Childrens classes are so well organized by awesome instructors, I trust them to train my 3 kids and am sooooo proud of their growth. Adult classes are challenging, but let you learn and grow, meeting you at your fitness level and ability...in a progression to better strength, flexibility, range of motion and health. Thai Chi and Chi Gong class too! Come check out this school!
Training since 2010...Real, traditional martial arts...talented, highly skilled instructors... if you want to strengthen your mind and body this is the place to train, no doubt!
Rarely have I had so much fun working so hard. Great teachers. My son also goes and I watch most of the kids classes. The number of instructors is impressive, usually no more than 5 students per instructor, ensuring that your child gets a high level of attention and positive feedback.
Great family oriented traditional school. They teach hard work and discipline as well as exploring all facets of Chinese martial arts for a full, well rounded experience.
Amazing instructors and a great school to be a part of
This school has it all: Tai Chi & Meditation classes, fighting, fitness advice, traditional Chinese culture, etc. with very experienced instructors to guide you along the way. Authentic Shaolin Kung Fu is second to none, highly recommend.
One of the most qualified martial arts schools around. Keeping true Shaolin tradition alive while infusing modern understanding to help and enrich the lives of all their students. Highly recommend.
Authentic Shaolin Kung Fu breathes skill and confidence into all of its students. Dedicated instructors have created the ultimate experience. A great place for family and friends to train.
Absolutely the best traditional school in New York possibly in the world! If you want to he a well rounded practitioner this is the place to be. I love to train with my shaolin family! :)
Joined a month ago looking for a place to learn real Tai Chi. Found out about this place due to Shifu Gregg having a demonstration at a local convention. The teachers are very invested in what they do and encourage everyone to do their best, taking time to show you how to do the movements properly. Cannot recommend highly enough!
Ive been to many schools in my short life and never found anything quite like this school. The instructors care, and really want you to get the most out of your training. Traditional martial arts, as well as real world practical applications. Its a little more than just a kung fu school, its a lifestyle, and a family atmosphere. If youre a veteran of the martial arts world, or someone looking to make their way into the world this school is the right one for you.
Ive been training at Authentic Shaolin Kung fu for the past 5 years and I absolutely love it! If you are looking for passionate instructors, traditional martial arts and a great community to be a part of you have to come check us out!
Through their dedication, the instructors at Authentic Shaolin Kung Fu carry on the ancient tradition of Shaolin Kung Fu. I highly recommend this school to any one of any age looking to study the traditions and methods of both Kung Fu and Tai Chi.
