Carlisle Kung-Fu Center

Having previously been a student here for several years and since my recent return to the Carlisle Kung-Fu Center, I can't stress how awesome this Martial Arts Center is or how amazing the small community of Kung-Fu Students are here. People are very inviting, friendly and inspirational. The Teachers are also extremely knowledgeable, some having 10, 20 or more years of training as well as being super helpful with the education. Classes are 5 days a week, some evening and some day time; also a very good financial investment in yourself as Kung Fu is one of the greatest Martial Art systems available. The teachers also occasionally go over other forms of instruction like Nunchaku and Historic Fencing. I highly recommend this location for Martial Arts/Self Defense Training.

The Carlisle Kung Fu Center is a wonderful kwoon (training hall) to learn this form of martial art (xīn pài bái lóng quán fǎ)! The head instructor (Shifu), Liam Cochran is an approachable, knowledgeable, kind, and focused instructor. The kwoon holds both adult and children classes throughout the week, yoga once a week, AND even has a Historical Fencing class! Needless to say the CKFC community is very welcoming, an educational place to train, while learning what your body and mind are capable of achieving - whatever your personal goal may be.

Carlisle Kung Fu Center is a true community, everyone works together to create a fun and educational experience. The upper ranks work to help the less experienced students to improve. The classes are always upbeat and a great work out. The welcoming atmosphere that this school has and the culture of everyone helping each other is a true testament to the ability of Shifu Cochran as a teacher.

My kids have been attending kung fu classes here since before the pandemic. Liam and the other shifus have epic patience!🤗 I’m not easily won over, but I explicitly trust them with my kids’ safety and mental wellbeing. The kids’ classes are developmentally appropriate and delightfully engaging. My kids work out so much of their energy and come away with huge smiles every week! My kids love this place and these people so much, that they request that I bring them *early* and never fight with me about attending! The location is super convenient, too. I park, the kids run to class, and I sit in Playa Bowls with a smoothie and get work done with an eye on when classes end. The price is amazingly affordable, too🙌

My son has been taking kung fu classes here and loves it. Liam is a great instructor and makes the classes fun. My son looks forward to going every week. We would highly recommend Carlisle kung fu.
