There is no word to describe . . .

how thankful I am to be able to train with Sifu Koh and the Bo Law Kung Fu instructors. They have helped and inspired me to to live my life with passion, presence, and confidence. I originally decided to try the class because I was looking for an alternative to a gym workout. What I found at Bo Law was much more. I'm now 33 years old and in the best shape of my life physically and mentally. This type of training has also impacted every area of my life. From my personal relationships to the amazing growth of my business (despite the economic turmoil!) All I can say is try it . . . you won't be disappointed.

Hidden Rates Do not recommend

by fasher

This school has a lot of bells and whistles. What they don't tell you and im VERY surprized no one mentions is that the already VERY high starting price ONLY includes BASIC kung fu workouts. ALL of the higher level calsses that teach Iron Pal, hand to hand combat, weapons, or anything more than the basic kunfu workout class COST MORE. The total bill could add up to $350 a month. The school is very manipulative and dishonest with revealing these things.

  • Pros: good teacher
  • Cons: strict, dishonest payment polciy

Awesome

by suistt

I’ve been at Bo Law for almost a year, and I average 4 times a week. I never ever did martial arts before, and a friend suggested I give it try for a month. I was hooked! I signed up for a year after my trial month. I also quit the gym, because I no longer needed it. Within the first 3 months I dropped 10 pounds and since then added more muscle definition. The training there is better then I could have imagined and beside the occasional time I get to pick up a weapon I don’t lift any weights at all. I love it. The classes are very organized, and all the other students there are focused. It’s not like a gym. The students there are nice, and friendly which makes it another plus, because I really got to meet great people and make new friends. But it’s not all physical at Bo Law. What you get is a new self awareness, and an urge to make yourself better. Master Koh is always there morning and night, and he understands the personal needs of his students. Bo Law is my second home, and I never could have dreamed of the personal benefits I have thus far received or even would have thought I needed since I’ve joined. I highly recommend Bo Law for Master Koh’s wealth of knowledge in Martial Arts, and for the physical and mental transformation you’ll receive.

  • Pros: physical and mental transformation

Great school

by maul533

I enrolled in Bo Law's program, and unfortunately had to stop going due to my busy work schedule. In my short time at this school I learned a lot. I entered this school with a 2nd degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do and Hapkido. Kung Fu was a brand new venture for me, and Bo Law was a great place to start.

Its bit hard core (which is great for serious martial artists, but not so great for less intense people). The floors are a little shabby, and made of hardwood which makes knuckle push-ups very uncomfortable. Also, the floors make moving difficult (your shoes either stick to the floor, or enough dust has accumulated on your soles that you constantly slide),

The floor of the school appears to be the only downfall. All the instructors are great teachers, Sifu Paul Koh is an amazing martial artist and a great teacher.

I highly recommend Bo Law to anyone interested in studying kung fu

  • Pros: instructors and corriculum
  • Cons: the floor

Do It With Your Mate!

Cannot say enough great things about Bo Law Kung Fu. I joined with my husband to lose weight and get in a healthier state of mind. This was not the first attempt getting physically fit together. These failed attempts at excercising together really just strained our relationship rather than time being spent together (which is what we were hoping for). However, studying Kung Fu together leveled the playing field. Although physical strength is critical; so are style and technique so women can advance through the ranks as fast as men.

We have both gotten much more out of it than we anticipated! Not only do we challenge ourselves physically, we gained so much mentally and spiritually. With our busy schedules, Bo Law offers us the flexibility w/o compromising our home/family life. Learning forms, practicing techniques has only improved our focus and helped us gain confidence. Most of all it has strengthen a bond that we share between us.

Our instructors are amazing, stern and patient when appropriate. Also, I cannot say enough about Sifu Paul Koh truly a master and a father. His eternal wisdom in the form of life lessons constantly captivates me in class. When you step into his Mo Gwoon you leave the rest of the world behind. The instructor to student ration is high and you get a lot of personnel attention. It may sound silly but they all remember our names, and things they worked with us on months before, and will check in on us. Some times complementing us on our progress, some times reminding us that they took time to show us a move; to focus and get it right.

The etiquette in our Mo Gwoon is very traditional and respectful. I consider my Sifu and his instructors, Si Heng and Si Jeh, (brothers and sisters) as an extension of my family. Training with Bo Law has given my husband and I greater depth into our physical, mental and spiritual abilities and a family that I feel proud to be a part of.
