a month agoI have been training with Sifu Chris for over 2 years now. I had taken karate many years ago with a few different instructors. Chris is not only an excellent Jeet Kune Do instructor, but also the most calm and ego‑less individuals I have had the pleasure of being trained by. His teaching style combines technical knowledge with patience and clarity. Every class feels purposeful, and shows how practical JKD is as a martial art. Chris pushes you to do better in a controlled way, which is incredibly important for all ages. I highly recommend Chris and his teaching of JKD.

a year agoHad a great experience working with instructor Chris for the last few months. Being a beginner at kickboxing, I received fundamental training which focused on application in real-world situations. Moreover, the training involved great attention to building balanced strength and flexibility for the body, which makes it great for people overcoming health challenges and hoping to strengthen their bodies. I really appreciate how Chris is able to gauge the level of my body’s capabilities and guide me through healthy progress. Highly recommend giving it a try if you are looking to learn some basic self-defense skills.
