Bamboo Kung Fu - Scarborough

Bamboo Kung Fu helped create a physical goal that appeared achievable, and helped me realize I am capable of much more than I give myself credit. I had attempted to learn a series of different martial arts styles from several different venues. Most did not understand the foundations of their own studies enough to teach students in a unique enough way to adhere to the individual needs.At Bamboo my personal abilities are challenged everyday, not the unreal goals set by martial arts movies and televised fighting competitions. Since my first day training with Si Fu Kin Sze I've felt comfortable. I have taken with me not only physical superiority, but a better understanding of myself.I look forward to training here for a very long time.

I have been practicing here for almost 2 years now as an adult, and my kids have been in the children’s class even longer. Both adult and kids classes are excellent, Sifu Sze is a great instructor and the kids love his classes too. Very practical real kung fu, and also a very good workout, and with sparring and weapons for advanced students. Also an excellent value, lots of payment options and flexibility.

Bamboo Kung Fu is a great place to train. Sifu Kin Sze is an excellent instructor- knowledgeable, patient and engaging. He teaches traditional Kung Fu with a combination of modern sports science. There is a focus on body mechanics, proper technique and effective application. Whatever your goals are- be it self defense, fitness or health- training at Bamboo will help you realize the potential of your physical abilities.

A very welcoming environment! Kin Sze is a very professional, passionate and experienced instructor. You could see the glimmer in his eyes when his students show progress - a silent, but genuine expression - one of a true kung fu master. Although he likes to see students' progress but is just as patient to accept that each student learns and progresses at their pace and level of comfort. There are also many other advanced students who are very willing to guide you and provide one-on-one help and feedback. As a novice, learning from various advanced students offer me unique perspectives and foci as each will give you different insider tips to improve. Training at Bamboo Kung Fu is definitely as rewarding as it is challenging! So be prepared to sweat, accept critique with an open-mind and have fun!

I highly recommend this place to all of the people who would like to learn effective martial art skills and stretches. The Sifu is very kind and patient, he always makes sure students get the core point of each move and he would explain it with very accurate examples and descriptions. At Bamboo, you would learn very comprehensive skills and be able to develop your ability to defend yourself! It is definitely one of the greatest martial art academies in Toronto!

Bamboo Kungfu has helped me in a lot of ways. It has given me strength, speed, flexibility and most of all, confidence. I joined Bamboo Kungfu because I wanted to learn a Martial Art to be able to defend myself in violent situations. This was very important because I don't live in the best neighbourhood (Scarborough). To my surprise, I found Bamboo Kungfu, a school that teaches Choy Lee Fut Kungfu which is a traditional Chinese Martial Arts. I was overjoyed when I found out that my Sifu (teacher) is none other than Kin Sze, who has a ton of experience under his belt!Also, the school is located so conveniently that it takes me a 7 minute drive to get to class!At Bamboo Kungfu, I learned so many amazing techniques that don't just look good, they actually work! I found that each move is actually lethal, even the blocks. I am surrounded by people who share my passion for Kungfu which certainly helps me in my training. The skills and confidence that I have gained are invaluable. I find that there are two things that must be done when joining a school:1. Find the right teacher2. PracticeI accomplished both of them by studying under Sifu Kin Sze, who motivates me to practice and continue my learning in this ever-learning art. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to gain confidence, power, and improve their physique, all while having fun!

I've been going to this school for almost 3 years now and I've loved every minute of it. Sifu Kin Sze is an amazing teacher who is passionate about sharing the martial art known as Choi Lee Fut. You can see it every day when he teaches his students. During the classes he takes the time to explain why you doing each technique and when you can apply it. Showing that Kung Fu is real and how you could also apply it in a real world situation.It is a laid back atmosphere, but Sifu Kin Sze and the students know when to get serious and get to work. A few times a year we'll have parties (sometimes karaoke :P ) just to have a little fun outside of class.For all these reasons and more, I honestly believe this is one of the best Kung Fu / Martial Arts schools in Toronto.

Bamboo Kung Fu is a great place to physically and maybe even mentally improve yourself while learning a form of martial arts. You can learn a lot from Sifu Kin Sze who is very knowledgeable when it comes to Kung fu and the human body. I have been training here for about 10 months and I have improved my strength, flexibility, learned the basic form and got to train with some pretty cool people. No matter who you are Bamboo Kung Fu offers a friendly environment to learn Kung fu and get in shape or become stronger.

I found Sifu Kin Sze from Google maps and have been his students for six months now. There is a reason why he has 5 stars here. He really cares about his students, takes a different approach if you have a hard time grasping a concept, shares anecdotes from time to time about certain moves, etc. There are huge mirrors on both sides of the room so you can see your form. I look forward to another six months (or more).

I've been training with Sifu Kin Sze for years now, at both locations.Recently, I had the unfortunate experience of having had to apply my training to deescalate a threatening situation and emerge unharmed. Without the footwork and foundations I've built at Bamboo Kung Fu, it may have ended terribly.
