About
Dragon Star Kung Fu offers training in Kajukenbo Tum Pai and Kajukenbo northern Tum Pai, including Kajukenbo forms, Kung Fu forms, tricks, grab arts, sparring, grappling, joint locks, and basic blocking maneuvers. Classes include self defense, yielding, re-direction of energy, calisthenics, and work on power and speed, agility, endurance, coordination, focus and awareness, and physical fitness. The program also includes child development, life skills, stress relief, and instruction in a Kajukenbo self defense system that was developed in the late 1940s as a combative street art and later expanded with northern Tum Pai as a defensive art that controls and develops the movement of centerline.
• Ages: 4–18 years old
Dragon Star Kung Fu teaches the art of Kajukenbo Kung Fu as a dynamic blend of Karate, Judo, Jiu Jitsu, Kenpo, and Chinese Boxing, with movements described as very circular and using many designed blocking techniques that assure one’s safety. The program’s training is described as fun, exciting, and dynamic, with dragons, leadership, and teen lessons that teach Kajukenbo Tum Pai and are offered for boys and girls of all ages, as well as teens and adults. Kids experience calisthenics to improve breathing, posture, and flexibility, which increases their power and speed, and mental topics such as focus, discipline, respect, awareness, pride, and strong moral ethics are taught daily in every class. With this art, students learn how to stay away from negative energy and to be strong enough to walk away from bullies, and focus, awareness, mobility, balance, power and speed, respect, endurance, and proper breathing are all described as increasing in just a couple of classes.
The training program and classes are described as designed to improve health and physical fitness while strengthening mind, body, focus, and spirit, and the stated goal is to build strong martial artists and confident leaders within the community. Dragon Star Kajukenbo has been open since 2007 and is described as the very highest rated martial arts school within its community, with a children’s martial arts program described as the very best. Each certified instructor has over 20 years of experience in Kajukenbo and over 20 years of experience in Kung Fu, and professional training instructors are described as being there for students every step of the way. Students are looked upon as individuals and never compared to anyone else, and at the end of every class students are asked to turn to their parent and express gratitude and appreciation.
The leadership team includes Sifu Tom, Sifu Benita, Sifu Tommy, and the Byrne family owner/operators. Some adults start at age 50+ and have still earned their black belts. Multiple parent and student testimonials describe Dragon Star Kung Fu and Dragon Star Kajukenbo as having a family atmosphere, supportive and knowledgeable instructors, and kids and adults training together over many years.
