Testimonials

These guys are serious about kung fu. Training, practicing and teaching – that’s their passion. Who is “these guys”? Sifu Sam, the school owner, his sifu, his sifu’s sifu and his sifu’s sifu’s sifu and everyone else in the family. Yes, the school is part of the family unified under a direct student of Moy Yat who was a direct student of IP Man. Why does this matter? To me it does ’cause I know I’m not learning no BS. I know the instructor not only has great kung fu but also knows how to teach it.

I began 11 months ago and I look forward to each class at Denver Kung Fu: Sifu Sam K. is excellent, and I have had a great learning experience.

I have just began my journey with the Moy Tung Clan and could not be happier. Everyone at the school is very welcoming. I have studied for close to a year but have only been a student of Sifu Sam for a month. Joining this school and training under Sifu Sam I see a huge improvement.

I started training Ving Tsun Kung Fu with the Women’s Program at Denver Kung Fu in February, and it’s had a very positive impact on my life. I’m learning how to defend myself and fight, but I’m learning so much more. I apply the philosophies of relaxation and calm to every aspect of my life, and it’s teaching me to be a better student in all of my endeavors. Our Sifu is amazing, and each class has a great balance of individual and class learning. When I started I was unsure I could even commit to the program, and now I’m completely hooked! I recommend anyone who is interested come to the studio and check it out.

About a year ago, I was searching for a way to become more active and fit without having to go to the gym. That’s boring, y’know? Then I stumbled upon an ad for Denver Kung Fu. I was skeptical that it would be something that I would stick with, but there is no harm in trying something new, so I gave them a call. The fact that there’s a women’s program made me even more interested — I could focus on my progress without having to worry about a big scary guy throwing punches at me.

Fast-forward to Right Now: I’m still with it! It’s been the most gratifying and eye-opening thing that I could ever be a part of. I have learned so much about myself, my body and my mind. This practice is not just for physical fitness, but mental and lifestyle fitness as well. All that I have learned, I am able to apply to my everyday life — especially the aspect of relaxation and meditation. I can deal with stress a lot better than I could before I took up Wing Chun…perhaps the comforting notion that I can kick butt if I need to helps me relax

I have been training Ving Tsun (wing chun) at this school for a couple of years now, and plan to continue as long as I can. I was initially turned away by the smaller facility and classes than what you’d find at larger schools, but I gave them a chance with a three month trial offer. After a couple of weeks of what I at first thought was a very awkward and non-flashy martial arts style I knew there was something serious hidden in this ving tsun that made it highly effective, and knew I had to continue training. This style isn’t for show, its for helping you survive in case things go wrong.

I was really surprised at how quickly training started translating into my daily life. For some reason you have a great feeling of accomplishment when you drop your keys, and catch them mid air again before they ever hit the ground, or when you just smack flies right out of the air with your bare hands because they’re annoying you, lol. But aside from the smaller things in life, I was really surprised at the confidence you feel, the increased balance you have, and how much the relaxation, structure, and efficiency you practice in class reflects in your every day life.

I’ve actually never been in a fight, but don’t doubt that if things took that really bad turn, I’d now be able to come out on top thanks to Ving Tsun. Aside from the great Sifu in the school, you actually have access to a much larger family of kung fu masters from all over the world that visit the school regularly (including Grand Master Moy Tung who swings by at least twice a year). There are also many schools nation wide you are always welcome to attend and I’m amazed at the family atmosphere involved with such visits. I’ve been to several other school in different states more than a couple of times, and every time there is always someone to offer you a ride, let you crash on their floor, or their couch, and help you in any way they can.

If you are serious about defending yourself I’d give this school a chance. Just sayin.

I joined the Women’s Training Program about three months ago and I’m very thankful I did! I’ve noticed that I’ve been handling stress better as the meditative aspects of Ving Tsun have been seeping into my daily life. I love going to class because it feels like a hard workout and an effective meditation all at the same time.

This school focuses on increasing your own personal power through relaxation and the mastering a genuine martial art. And while I won’t be starting any fights, I’m positive that Ving Tsun would help me in an emergency situation. Plus, there is no overly formal garb, traditions or money to be paid to pass on to the next belt or level. Instead, your progress will be felt by you and further validated by the Instructors.

Sifu Mez is knowledgable, patient and does a great job of explaining new things in different ways so that you feel as though you truly have an understanding of the discipline. I don’t have much experience with Sam, the other Sifu, but he covered a class for Mez one day and I was impressed with his demeanor and professionalism as well.

They have a great central location and their tuition is very well-priced for the amount of classes that are offered and the quality of the school. I can’t recommend it enough!

As someone with no interest in anything athletic, I tried a Ving Tsun Kung Fu Denver class out of curiosity. Wondered why anyone, other then from sheer necessity, would train to fight. Much to my surprise, have been returning ever since. Far more than a sort of macho fight club, Kung Fu womens’ classes have led to unexpected ripple effects in all areas of life. Have noticed an increase in concentration, calm, even coordination. Sifu Mez respectfully meets students where we are, while encouraging further learning. Try one class. You might stay longer.

This is a great school for everyone – including those who are just getting interested in martial arts all the way to seasoned martial artists looking to further their kung fu. The school can offer it all.

The training location and space is great. Wood floors, plenty of space, great equipment. The space is one of the best in Denver.

The price is great for what you get. You have the option of 12 classes every week which allows for a lot of flexibility and a lot of learning.

Most importantly, the kung fu you learn is top notch. The school and sifu truly care about improving your skill and the kung fu you learn is one of the most legitimate around. You will start learning ways to protect yourself from day one. And, if you find that Wing Chun is something you want to throw yourself into and really learn, you’ll find a rich and deep level of knowledge waiting. Opportunities exist for special weekend training sessions where teachers, or sifus, from all over the country come to share their knowledge.

Everyone will find some great training at Denver Kung Fu.
