To any adult or parent that is looking into KungFu, this is the most impressive martial arts school in the area. Across the area, there are many schools, but this school is rooted in the historical teachings of generations of Grandmasters. The lineage of a great martial arts school is so important, and many schools have a lack of this lineage. Great teaching and learning of KungFu takes time and dedication. Grandmaster Mollica teaches in an easy-to-understand, positive, and distilled way, that the years pass by so effortlessly. The Youth Classes are so enjoyable, not only for the kids, but for

I have been studying under Master Mollica for over four years now and it has truly been one of the best experiences of my life. The variety of self defense techniques and Kung Fu styles that Master Mollica has in his arsenal is quite amazing. In addition to the Kung Fu practice, we also participate in Shuai Jiao, which is an ancient martial art where throws and joint locks are employed. Classes are offered for beginners twice a week and as you progress through the ranks, you are eventually admitted into the Advanced class. The instructors there have now become my brothers and sisters, and everyone

I had the pleasure of studying at Ho-I for about 12 years, before moving away from Columbus. I developed my mind and body in some really neat ways, and I learned very practical and effective self defense techniques and fighting systems. Grand Master Mollica is the real deal, and a very good man. Master Sheldon, Master Shumaker, Sifu Antjas, Sifu Kincer, and Coach Marang are some of the excellenct instructors who have helped me along my journey. It's an excellent school for both adults and children.

I have been attending Master Mollicas class along with my 11 year old, whom I enrolled in their youth class for 2 years now. Our experience has been fantastic! The hands on training and detailed attention to the art has made it easier to comprehend and understand vs just being thrown into something with no step by step instructions. All of the instructors are fantastic and have many years of experience between them. I watch my son twice a week in the youth class as well, and I must say, that the way the children are spoken to and taught is fantastic! If you are looking for a place to learn various

This is a great place to learn the martial arts. It can be confusing and frustrating trying to find a good place to start. There's kickboxing, karate, MMA, and all the rest. Kung Fu appealed to me because of it's interesting history. I go to a gym regularly and have been taking yoga for years. I was starting to feel stagnate in my routines and needed a new challenge. Joining a martial arts studio is a bit different as there's a set schedule and you are asked to pay monthly. You will also be asked to buy a uniform for about 75 bucks. It includes excellent shoes, pants, and a cool black t-shirt with
