Ten Tigers Kung Fu Academy Reviews

Ten Tiger Kung Fu is absolutely wonderful! The instructors are compassionate, professional, and incredibly thorough in their teaching. They not only focus on technique but also on building confidence, discipline, and respect. Both of my kids truly love and enjoy their classes.

We’ve tried Taekwondo, Jiu Jitsu, and Karate in the past, but nothing has compared to the passion and joy they’ve found in Kung Fu. This is where their hearts are, and it shows—they leave every class feeling energized, proud, and happy.

Since starting Kung Fu, I’ve noticed such positive changes in both of my kids. They’ve become more confident, more active, and much more willing to express themselves. It’s amazing to watch them grow stronger—not just physically, but mentally and emotionally as well.

I couldn’t recommend Ten Tiger Kung Fu enough—it’s been an amazing experience for our family!

Ten Tigers Kung Fu Academy is an outstanding martial arts school! Led by the ever-patient and infinitely wise Sifu Rik Kellerman, they are phenomenal. Sifu somehow manages to turn even the most uncoordinated of us into graceful warriors. The classes are well-structured, and the environment is welcoming and supportive.

Whether you're a beginner trying to figure out how to tie your belt without looking like you’re gift-wrapping yourself or an experienced martial artist seeking to perfect your skills, you'll find something to challenge and inspire you here. Plus, if you ever wanted to feel like a superhero, this is the place to start!

The focus on self-respect, self-confidence, and self-defense is evident in every session. Trust me, after a few classes, you'll be radiating confidence and might even catch yourself posing like a kung fu master in front of the mirror.

I highly recommend Ten Tigers Kung Fu to anyone looking to improve their martial arts skills and overall well-being.

My 12 year old son takes classes here for a couple months. The Sifu is very passionate about what he is teaching and also goes out of his way to instill life long lessons in the students to help them grow as individuals. Also, the background and lineage of the KungFu they are teaching is legit.

Around 2019, we signed up my then 7-year old daughter for Kung Fu at Ten Tigers. I watched her grow quickly over that first year, sticking with it and never giving up, learning discipline, self-confidence, patience, and many other virtues. All the while, I wondered if I'd be able to do it myself. Would I really be able to successfully practice Kung Fu if I start for the very first time in my late 30's? I was never really into working out, I wasn't the sports type, and my idea of exercise was a mile walk around the neighborhood.

Sometime after the disastrous year of 2020, I decided to give it a go. I'd already changed my diet and daily routines, lost a lot of weight, and thought that it was time to really give this a shot.

3.5 years into it now, I went from being unbalanced and uncoordinated, barely able to get a front kick above knee level to having a completely life-changing experience. I've progressed, I'm flexible in ways I never was previously throughout my whole life, stronger physically and mentally than I've ever been, and learned all new techniques involving self-discipline, restraint, patience, balance, and many other virtues just like my daughter did before me.

Ten Tigers is an integral part of my life. We are students and classmates, but we are also a family. Kung Fu remains one of the most important things in my life that I always make every effort to do no matter what else may be going on at the time. There are no egos here, just respect and discipline. If you every thought you could, or wanted to just see if you can try, you absolutely can. Ten Tigers is the place to do it.

I studied Kung Fu with Sifu Kellerman when I was very young, and he had a profound impact on my life. He is a true master of the art, and he teaches not only the techniques of Kung Fu, but also the history and philosophy behind it. He helped me to build confidence, discipline, and self-defense skills. I am so grateful for the time I spent training with him, and I highly recommend Ten Tigers Kung Fu Academy to anyone looking for a traditional and effective martial arts training.

Sifu Kellerman is a stickler for tradition, and he teaches Kung Fu the way it was meant to be taught. He doesn't water down the art for commercial appeal, and he ensures that his students learn the proper techniques and principles. He also teaches the history of Kung Fu, so that students can understand the context of the art and appreciate its true value.

In addition to teaching the physical aspects of Kung Fu, Sifu Kellerman also focuses on building students' confidence and discipline. He creates a positive and supportive environment where students can learn and grow. He also teaches students the importance of respect, both for themselves and for others.

I had an amazing experience training with Sifu Kellerman, and I learned so much from him. I am confident that I would not be the person I am today without his guidance. I highly recommend Ten Tigers Kung Fu Academy to anyone looking for a traditional and effective martial arts training.

"Ten Tigers Kung Fu Academy in Huntington, NY is a fun safe place to learn and practice Authentic Kung Fu. Sifu (Master Teacher) Rik Kellerman, Jo-Gow (Assistant Instructor) Shue Au and other staff and training brothers and sisters create an comfortable, practical environment to challenge yourself to achieve your Martial Arts goals. In addition to Traditional Kung Fu, Ten Tigers offers lessons in Chinese boxing and grappling, Tai Chi and Tao Yoga.

It’s also never too late to start learning. While classes are offered from a young age, I personally began my training in my 20’s. Everyone is treated with respect regardless of physical ability. Having been a student for several years this art has become a part of my life. It has helped me not only get into the best shape of my life but has also helped tremendously with my confidence and anxiety. They even offer remote and private classes.

Rik Kellerman’s Ten Tigers Kung Fu Academy was and continues to be a life-changer."
