Elite Kung Fu Learning Academy

My daughter has been going here for more than a year now. I like that all the teachers are women. They are all very good with kids. Yes, they do show tough love — they watch each child intently as they perform and correct every minor mistake. Sifu Hannah is very good with the kids, always smiling and in great spirit. Sifu Tina pushes them very hard — in a good way. They both keep energy level very high, and that’s so important and also very hard to do consistently. I haven’t seen any other teachers in action. I also like that they are flexible with their scheduling. I have never had a problem with doing a makeup class. I’m taking 1 star away because lately I feel they are getting over crowded. It’s a good thing for them I suppose, but I feel that there are days my daughter just doesn’t get enough direction because there are just too many kids. Also sometimes, even though she knows all the moves for her form, if some child is lagging behind, then that child takes away a lot of time from the teacher because she’s trying to get everybody at the same level. I think a lot of this can be addressed if there are fewer kids. Overall, I would highly recommend this place to anyone without hesitation.

I decided to come to this place after reading such raging reviews about the Shifu. I brought my 3 year old son here to inquire about classes. The Shifu here said he was too young and bouncy. She told me to come back when he is 5 years old. Well, he will probably be doing baseball when he is 5 years old! I don’t know what her skills are but it is definitely not with teaching kids!

They are so good with children. My son can be a handful. He really loves his kung fu classes. We signed up for their summer special. When I told him no more kung fun class because we are switching him to t-​ball he cried. So yeah, we are back for another session. They make the lessons easy for kids to follow. The bigger kids come in later at night. I wanted to watch and see what the advance kids can do, but I have to bring my kid home for bed time. The classes are fun to watch. I am surprise there isn’t a lot of reviews here. They have a lot of students. I am assuming the parents are not Unilocal users.

My 6 year old son has been taking weekly classes here for about a year. He enjoys the classes and looks forward to them each week. The instructors are animated, enthusiastic, and engage the kids. It can’t be easy to keep this age group engaged, much less teach them forms/​routines! The older kids seem to be doing some really fantastic forms, and while I haven’t suggested to my son that he should advance to that level, he is expressing interest in learning wushu forms with weapons. Seems like a gentle but effective introduction to kung fu, perfect for this age group. Sifu Hannah is an excellent instructor, highly recommend!

My niece who is 5 years old loves here, she going here everyday. The coaches are passion and nice. Most coaches are female. I am be safe put my niece in the class.
My niece have been learning 1 and half year, she got first place in Kung Fu competition last year.
I really recommend this Kung Fu School.

My girl loves here, keeps going almost everyday… I am sure that she goes everyday if she can. All instructors are super friendly~!

«Woohoo! As good as it gets!» is truly a good description.
I earned a black belt through her private training program; I am FAR MORE than satisfied. I think this was probably one of the things that sealed the deal for my college applications (I go to Cornell now). A few of other top students are now at UCLA, Berkeley, and I think maybe one at Stanford.
I went to Omei Kung Fu until their ownership changed. The reason why I switched? Sifi Hannah is by far the best. Ask any of her student and their parents.
She’s friendly, polite, fluent in 3 languages (english, cantonese and mandarin), and very tech savvy. Most importantly though, her wu shu rocks! Ask her to show you one of her butterflies. It’s gorgeous.
Do a quick youtube search of master jie chow. You can see her perform in a major competition a few years back. Her skills are amazing.
I really recommend her!

Though Elite Kung Fu is a new establishment, Sifu Hannah Chow, the principal owner of Elite Kung Fu, is an old-​hand trainer and a familiar face among the kung fu parents in the bay area. She has worked for others over the years and has made a name for herself to be an energetic, skillful and most importantly patient trainer. So it was not a big surprise when Sifu Hannah would eventually open up her own school. And when people heard of the news, they, like myself, enthusiastically came running to Elite to join her. She is swift, dynamic as she is fun and animated — sort of like Jackie Chan! Oh, did I mention that she paired-​up with Jackie in a photo-​op as a kung fu competition finalist for the premier of the Karate Kid in Hollywood? Check out the photo and many impressive championship accolades she has garnished over her long kung fu career. This is a good place to start and finish!
