	It was many years ago when I first began my journey upon the martial arts path, little did I know then that it would be a life long love that I would still be standing in awe of nearly 40 years later. In all those years I have experienced many different styles of martial arts, from Chinese to Japanese, from combat to kata and also many different approaches to imparting the knowledge of those ancient arts. It was through this that I came to know that all expressions of the art itself, can only be limited by the Teacher and the student, when you find that which works for both, you have found a true treasure.
	It is my belief that I have found that treasure here at the Mint Hill Kung Fu School, and I would recommend this school to anyone interested in Kung Fu or martial arts. The ability to learn directly from Master Li Chi Keung in his Sunday class is a opportunity that most schools never get to experience, and having his direct lineage student Sifu Christopher Facente as an instructor is in itself a treat.
	The moment you walk through the door you are made to feel comfortable and at home, the Sifu are all very knowledgeable, helpful and patient, and in every class you tend to learn something new, either about the art, or yourself, so if martial arts is your thing the Mint Hill Kung Fu School has it all, from forms to weapons to sparring! 
	So please do stop by and experience this for yourself, once I was where you are now and I decided to check out the school and I can say that the only regret I have about my decision was I wish I had done it earlier.
	On behalf of the school I would like to welcome you to stop in to our next class and we would love for you to become a part of this wonderful Mint Hill Kung Fu family.

In February, I found myself struggling to find the right Kung Fu School for me, I decided to check out Mint Hill Kung Fu and Lai Tung Pai as a replacement for Traditional Wing Chun training I had taken the year before.   

I couldnt have been happier to have found what I found in this School!

Not only is the art exactly what I had been seeking, which is an incredible combination of long and short fist techniques with many of the great aspects of Wing Chun within it as well, but it had the extra benefit of becoming a new extended family as well!

Today my entire family, none of which have ever trained in the past, now study Kung Fu together.  We are proud members of an incredible Kung Fu family that has adopted us into the fold from the very first day.   Everyone from the lowest ranks of peers to our fantastic Cadre of high ranking students and Black Sash's, to Sifu's Chris and the incredible Sifu Li has taught us Kung fu and a lot about ourselves.

Many folks are trying to find that perfect place to learn Kung Fu and I highly recommend you try Mint Hill Kung Fu as your first option. You will find what you are seeking here.  It is literally the BEST in my opinion and I am grateful to have had this opportunity to be a part of this incredible Kwoon.

As someone who has an extensive background in martial arts, including wrestling all through grade school, 19 years of Shotokan, Kyokushin, Uechi Ryu and other karate styles, Northern Shaolin, and extensive seminars on several subjects and styles, I feel qualified to state that Mint Hill Kung Fu and Sifu Chris Facente provide some of the best, most effective instruction in the Charlotte area.

Sifu Chris stresses traditional Southern Style Kung Fu and includes training in forms, sparring, and weapons. Conditioning exercises not only include push-ups and calisthenics universal to most martial arts schools, but also traditional exercises such as rolling up weights on a wrist roller to strengthen the forearms and wrists and manipulation of heavy bowling balls to develop the muscles necessary for the blocks and hand techniques for which Southern Kung Fu is known.

The forms showcase the versatile nature of Lai Tung Pai Kung Fu. While Lai Tung Pai has many short fist forms similar to Wing Chun, it also contains a wider variety of kicking and circular techniques and stances, similar to long fist styles of Southern Kung Fu like Choy Lee Fut or Lau Gar. This versatility ensures a complete fighter, ready to address threats at most ranges.

The sparring is realistic, including face cages to allow face shots and allowing kicks to the legs (neither of which are allowed at most Taekwondo schools and at most so called "karate" schools that have abandoned their traditional roots), with contact usually kept at a light contact or medium contact level, with some individuals training for full contact lei tai competition. 

The pricing is beyond competitive compared to the average school in the area, or even far less populated areas.

Sifu Chris is a funny, caring, individual who respects other arts and individuals and genuinely cares about students as individuals. I would 100% recommend this school to others interested in Kung Fu or martial arts, whether your goal is competition, fitness, self-defense, or all three like myself.
