For adults, we focus on the mental and physical benefits of martial arts, including:

Self-defense is a component of all martial arts training, no matter what the style (e.g., karate, taekwondo, kung fu, jiu jitsu). Certainly, that’s the case at KANG Taekwondo. However, we always balance that with instruction on personal safety awareness, anti-bullying skills, and seeking alternatives to conflict.

For us at KANG Taekwondo, the practice of martial arts means respecting each other, encouraging and supporting each other, and celebrating each other’s successes.

Learn Choy Li Fut Kung Fu. Known for its powerful strikes and kicks

My kids have been at this school for two years. Always a positive environment and kids enjoy it. There is so much offered with this being the "whole" Kung fu teachings not parts of it. It is not inexpensive, but no schools are that offer what Eastern Ways does. What is offered is better than other schools overall.

2 years ago This is my son’s second year at Eastern Ways. We are so glad we found this place. Committed, professional and very talented people. My son has learned so much, he is blue sash now, can’t wait to get the black!

A year ago Our daughters gave been training at Eastern Ways for probably 14 years now and still going strong. It has been an amazing journey as they transformed from little girls to these confident, responsible, respectful, talented, and powerful young women. The instructors are supportive role models of professionalism with passion. We got lucky when we picked this place!

4 years ago My husband and I took an introductory class here which was an amazing FREE private lesson. The studio is beautiful, clean, and the instructors we met were warm and welcoming. Mr. Langley actually taught our class and it was obvious that he had extensive training in martial arts as well as teaching tactics. Looking forward to a next time.

2 years ago My wife & I have been training here for over a decade and will say we got lucky! We could have started many other places but did a little research and thought this was a very authentic system with affiliation to the Plum Blossom Association so would be as real as possible. Frankly, they were convenient to our house. Doesn't matter, I'd drive 30 miles to train here! Sifu Lendech and the staff at the Fulton location have helped us in SO many ways. Confidence, technique, proper training, they teach it all. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

A year ago Excellent teachers with an accomplished knowledge of the art and science of Martial Arts. They are all knowledgeable and effective in their ability to teach. In addition, regardless of your skill level, you will be treated with courtesy, respect and dignity. I highly recommend Eastern Ways Martial Arts. You simply cannot go wrong with this dedicated team of Martial Arts teachers. As a former student (I had a significant career change and could no longer pursue the discipline) I can say with confidence that their integrity level is off the charts!

3 years ago I've trained here for almost ten years. The private lesson structure that they use has helped me to become a much better martial artist, much faster that at schools that only have group classes. Of course, there are group classes here as well, so you get the best of both worlds. Come here to train in traditional Chinese martial arts (Kung Fu and/or Tai Chi), which includes a lot of really cool weapons. There is sparring as well, but it is not the main focus at the school.
