"My Son Started This School A Couple Weeks Ago & He Loves It. Me & My Husband Loves That My Son Is Engaging With Other Children In A Structured Environment. We Also Love That Our Son Is Gaining Discipline, & Self Defense In A Safe, Welcoming Space. Their Teacher Is Firm, & Delivers The Techniques In A Way He Can Understand. I Definitely Recommend This School Young Boys & Girls, They Can Learn A Lot Here!"

"My son has been enrolled since April and absolutely loves it. Shih Ye’s instruction is fantastic for young people and he focuses on the total child. Within the framework of martial arts instruction, he also works on discipline, respect, and self confidence. He empowers the students to take on leadership roles, teaches them about martial arts culture and fosters both independent and group progress concurrently. He is extremely talented at his craft and as long as you are serious about your work ethic, you will do very well."

"Six years ago, I sought out a martial arts school to provide my daughter with effective self-defense techniques and improve her self-confidence. A close friend recommended Shih-Fu Kenneth Ware due to his pedigree (3 Time International World Champion and member of the Chinese Martial Arts Hall of Fame), and more importantly, his ability to expedite the development of his students through his traditional approach to Kung Fu. In a few short weeks of my daughter joining the school, I knew I made the right decision. She had already learned a few techniques to protect herself, and I could see that she would flourish under Shih-Fu's instruction. Within six months, I was so impressed with his teaching that I joined the adult class. I studied Kung Fu for five years and recently began studying Tai Chi. I could not be happier with the knowledge and skills my daughter and I received from Shih-Fu. Not only does he teach skills, but also instills values as an integral part of his program. He teaches all students respect for self, elders and people in general. He cares about developing each student mentally and physically. He requires discipline and hard work in both class and school. The end result is a unique opportunity for martial arts mastery that I highly recommend to anyone interested in pursuing authentic Kung Fu and Tai Chi."

"When I first read the reviews, I was concerned that Mr. Ware would not be welcoming to my family, especially to me as a woman. However, once I met him, my fears quickly dissipated. He is extremely welcoming and friendly. My children adore him. We have truly found a home at Cincinnati Kung Fu and Tai Chi Center and plan to keep our children enrolled for years to come."

"My five year old son has been attending the school just shy of a year now. His discipline and balance have improved drastically. He loves his classmates & has developed a great relationship with Shih-ye Ware. Shih-ye is hard on him, but in all the right ways. The members of this school are truly a family. I love watching my son grow and ask questions to become a better student. This kung fu school was an excellent choice."
