An ancient Chinese martial art where skill and proficiency are developed through intense rigor, dedication and self-discipline. Shaolin Quan is the historic origin of Karate-Do. If you still are not sure what Kung Fu is like, then just think of Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and Jet Li movies to get a better idea.

Quality instruction while fun for the kids. They teach more than just hitting and kicking. They teach discipline, restraint, respect and patience. —All great life values that set their students up for success in the real world. The curriculum isn’t just about advancing in belts/rank as fast as possible to get you in and out. They care about their students and the integrity of their arts.

LOVE THIS PLACE. We have been looking for activities for my daughter and Yee's came along at the right time. My wife had done kick boxing there in the past and loved it. She felt the staff were fantastic and she had fun at every event she went to that the Academy put on. We found out recently that they were going to have Judo for young children and Kung Fu classes. For the judo, they usually would do 4 years old but they took our daughter in. She was by far the youngest in the class but once of the teachers would take her aside, stretch with her, go through exercises with her every day

I love YMA! It has classes for all ages and is the "real deal." This unique Martial Arts school (w/ a longtime East Bay history) not only teaches self defense and physical fitness movements, it offers education about ancient Eastern philosophy, culture, Kung Fu history and how to achieve good health and harmony. The beginner kickboxing classes are especially fun and upbeat, and great for those of us in the baby boom generation - not too easy or difficult but challenging enough for a healthy cardio and/or ab workout. The instructors are dedicated, caring, and inspiring! I always feel refreshed

We love Yee's Martial Arts. I just wish I could go to their classes consistently (excuses - I know but its business). They have a wide range of options for every ability type and EVERY age....for those just getting into an exercise routine like kickboxing and those who are looking for dedicated instructional classes for specific maritial art disciplines. My guy is in judo and he is always happy after a class at Yee's. They have a very caring, safe and educational environment. It's the best school in the area!

I wish I knew about this place sooner.
It has it all: kungfu, taichi, judo and san shou kickboxing.
The instructors are experienced and personable, and the students are well-rounded and supportive. As a beginner in kickboxing, I never felt out of place or awkward even though I was new.
Everyone is upbeat and the highly charged workouts are flexible for the individual, but challenging nonetheless. The school teaches more than just kicking someone's butt, but rather, stresses self-discipline, self-respect, and overall fitness.
I highly recommend trying one of their free-trial classes
