After dedicating years to mastering the art of Kung Fu, Shifu Aaron Chen found himself called upon to share his expertise at the very school where he honed his skills. As he embraced the role of a teacher, it became abundantly clear to Shifu Chen that instructing children and adults in the ways of Kung Fu was his true calling. Fueled by this passion, he took a bold step and founded his own establishment – Dragon Claw Academy of Kung Fu.
Despite its humble origins with just three initial students (his 2 kids and his neighbor’s son), Dragon Claw Academy quickly outgrew its underdog status. Within a mere year, the academy flourished, boasting an impressive enrollment of over 100 students.
From its inception, Dragon Claw Academy has been committed to delivering a comprehensive Kung Fu education that transcends mere physical training. Here, the essence of Kung Fu lies not only in mastering powerful techniques but also in, nurturing the heart, mind, and body. DCA emphasizes the integral connection between character development and martial prowess to instill values such as hard work, discipline, respect, generosity, and excellence – lessons that extend beyond the academy and into everyday life. Shifu Chen believes that the lessons DCA brings on the mat will undoubtedly improve the quality of your life.
