Testimonials
We've taught amazing students. Read our testimonials.
“Not only are we lucky to have Kung Fu available in the metro east, we are extremely lucky to have Sifu Hoyle to teach it! Master Hoyle leads by example and teaches from experience.”
“My daughter and I have been attending class here for almost 6 months now. I have been really impressed at the changes I have seen in my daughter (6yrs old). She has started to learn confidence in her abilities as a growing person.”
“We joined as a family. The kids and I take Kungfu and my husband and I take Tai Chi. We all enjoy our classes. Mr. Hoyle is amazing with how patient he is with the younger kids. He also does a great job of stepping through the techniques.”
“We've been with Hoyle's Kung Fu Academy for 2 years and it's been a great experience for my 10 year daughter. I've seen her confidence, agility, and discipline improve significantly. Mr. Hoyle is a terrific instructor.”
“I joined Mr. Hoyle's class in April 2022. It's one of the best decisions I've made for my physical and mental health. I feel stronger, better balanced, and more confident. I appreciate how Mr. Hoyle adapts and challenges for many abilities. Most importantly, it is so much fun!”
“Mr Hoyle is very patient with teaching younger kids like 5-6 and the younger kids are very receptive to his teachings. My son has grown a lot in his class and has become more confident in what he does, both in and out of class.”
“Mr. Hoyle is a great teacher and I sm loving Tai Chi. This is my 3rd year. I look forward to our weekly classes. It is good for balance, physical and mental, strengthening and discilpine. Learning this meditative martial art has been a fantastic experience and I look forward to a life of Tai Chi.”
“I have been a student of Sifu Hoyle for over 3 years now. When I started I couldn't touch my toes, and I smoked cigarettes. With Sifu Hoyle always encouraging me I've been cigarette free for over 3 years.”
“Tai Chi has proven to be a huge plus in my life. I’ve experienced improved balance and agility at 63 years of age. I’ve been an average student off and on for the last 3 years, yet Tai Chi breathing techniques serve to lower my blood pressure and bring a true level of relaxation.”
