Kung Fu of Golden Dragon

Training with Masters Valery and Dmitry is a true blessing!
I’ve been wanting to do martial arts since I was little and tried it several times but something wasn’t right. As soon as I walked into Golden Dragon school and talked to the teachers I knew it was my school.
Master Valery is one of the World’s leading Kung Fu and Tai Chi artists. His son Dmitry is also a wonderful teacher and his lessons are always fun!

THE FOUNTAIN OF YOUTH! I have been practicing with Valery 3 – 4 times per week for about 1.5 years now and feel 20 years younger. As a rule, I never liked routine or working out, but I love going to class. It is both serious and fun at the same time.
No two classes are the same and so rewarding. I find myself practicing at home on days when I don’t attend class. It is physical, mentally and spiritually uplifting. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to quickly improve their position in life! Valery is a true master and if you get the opportunity to learn from him, well, I can’t recommend it enough.
D’mitry (Dima) expertly teaches my son as he is the son of headmaster Valery, and a martial arts expert. Dima has just the right approach for teaching children. There is serious learning accompanied by just the right amount of play and fun. My son loves going to class and considers Dima one of his best friends. In addition my son has become fit, patient, focused and more co-​ordinated while learning the valuable skills of self-​defense. This has resulted in vast improvements in school, music and other sports. I think every child should learn martial arts from Dima!

I began training at Golden Dragon Martial Arts School with Master Valeriy and Head Instructor Dmitry six months ago. I have never enjoyed any type of exercise or fitness activity more, and I have never benefitted more, both physically and mentally from training. At 31 years old, I can confidently report that I am in the best shape of my life. The varied workouts, conditioning and personal attention have kept me returning to continuously challenge myself. An unexpected benefit of my training has been greater focus and control in all areas of life from my work as an attorney to my hobby as a musician.
Head Master Valeriy is an absolute master of Chinese martial arts. His skill and inherent understanding of his craft are immediately obvious. Master Valeriy challenges his students to work their hardest and inspires them to achieve what they did not think was possible – myself included. I am impressed not only with Master Valeriy’s martial arts skills but his patience and ability to efficiently communicate valuable constructive information that helps increase students’ performance. I consider working with Master Valeriy a true privilege and appreciate all the personal attention he has devoted to my kung fu practice.
Head Instructor Dmitry also is a true expert in martial arts and fitness. Dmitry has consistently challenged me in a way that is never repetitive or discouraging, but always engaging, personal and fun. Dmitry is extremely skilled and patient and pays the utmost attention to each of his students’ development and performance, always offering a helpful tip or modification to make the work pay off. Dmitry has helped me exceed my fitness goals and customized a program for me to keep working.
I am so happy that I began training at Golden Dragon and value the friendly atmosphere, intense training and high level of professionalism that is displayed by everyone at the school. From tough weeknight classes in kung fu to spiritual Saturday morning group tai chi practice, and even classes for kids and seniors, I cannot recommend Golden Dragon, Master Valeriy or Dmitry more if you are looking for truly professional martially arts instructors and inspiring coaches. I look forward to reporting more progress after the next 6 months of training!

I am a person who likes to work out and likes to try different kinds of fitness places. KUNG FU of Golden dragon is definitely a top notch !
From the first minutes you see Head instructor Valeriy and Dima in action — you understand that they are not just experts — they are MASTERS in their craft!
Tough but extremely passionate and PATIENT at the same time, they give you very balanced, well rounded, challenging work-​out for body — and mind — that I can actually call an «art form». Warm-​up in the beginning seriously equals professional gymnast training and the second part, Kung-​Fu itself, is «custom-​made» according to your level. You get personal attention and all fears like «I wont be able to do it and people will be laughing at me» will be gone because of instructor’s patience and kindness.
Place itself is spacious, and even nicer then their old location (very easy to find, free parking), bright and girls upfront are really sweet and always welcoming.
Absolute must try for anyone!
