White Dragon Martial Arts – Encinitas

White Dragon is the best place to have a workout and meet some very nice people. In this Location I’ve gone here once for a lion dance show but I can tell that all of the instructors are really nice and cool to hang out with. Sifu Estrada is nice even though I’ve never talked to him before but whenever my Instructor Training classmates always talk to him they always laugh so it would be nice to be cool with him. I go to the Clairemont school but it would be nice to go here even though it’s small it still feels like home.

I absolutely love this place and I look forward to coming here after school every day to practice martial arts! The instructors are all lovely people and as well as the other students at the school.

My son has been coming to this studio for 5 or 6 years. He is 15 now and really it has been a wonderful way for him to use his energy and coordination while learning respect, history and discipline. I couldn’t ask for a better group of instructors to influence him as he heads through his teen years. They always seem to know how hard to push and the right thing to say to keep him motivated.

My children and I have been attending this school for the past 4 years and we continue to enjoy the various training methods and classes they offer. It’s obvious that all of the instructors really care about their students because they work hard to make sure they are successful in every aspect of their training especially through the one on one private lessons geared toward each individual student. It’s a great environment for all ages and for all fitness levels. The chief instructor, Sifu Estrada is professional but personable, very patient and kind and fosters a very motivating and enjoyable training environment. This martial arts school is unlike any other and I would highly recommend!

I’ve been a student of Martial Arts for 9 years, 6 years has been spent at White Dragon. I enjoy the «Black Sash» Members program which entitles you to attend all of the school’s offerings (i.e. kung fu, tai chi, grappling, san da, weapons training, and more). The school teaches discipline, respect, and self-​defense. The reason why I have renewed my membership at the school is that it fosters the martial spirit to work hard to accomplish your goal. The instructors are not only personable, but they know what they are doing. Under Sifu Estrada the school has undergone many positive changes. Of particular note, their children’s program is above average and has a huge attendance. In the past 6 years I have seen children of ages 7 or 8 grow into confident martial artists, some of which that have surpassed me. This school is great for both the young and old and I have enjoyed classes that a varying degree of skill and age. You can also attend other schools of the White Dragon brand once you have membership so it is very convenient.

White Dragon Encinitas is the Best! If you are looking for a workout while learning new skills this is the place for you. The instructors are very knowledgeable and tailor your training specifically for you. Sifu Estrada is one of a kind and I always feel and home and welcome when I am there. They have a variety of payment options to work with most budgets. anyone interested in learning the skills and discipline of kung foo, needs to look no further. I would highly recommend The Encinitas White Dragon School.

White Dragon Encinitas has an AMAZING staff of instructors! They are s positive group of professionals who make you feel like you’re the only one in the room when they work with you. They are skilled and passionate people who make you want to better your skills every time you walk through the door. I would definetly recommend using this studio to take up or improve your Kung Fu!

Our family loves White Dragon Encinitas. The instructors are amazing and our son has thrived in this environment. His instructor Mr Christensen is amazing with children and he has helped him become more focused and confident in just a couple of months. This is a martial arts program you do or you have your kids do for life and is worth every penny!

incredibly well rounded martial artists here. The teachers really care about what they are teaching and it shows! The kung fu is very traditional, however they mix in lots of self defense and combatives as well. Sooo many families attend this school and its really neat how much of a community it is! Check it out, they love what they are teaching and it really shows in each of their students!

I wished I lived back in San Diego to be able to attend White Dragon. The instructors here are all super nice, knowledgable, excellent teachers (very important) and great with kids and adults to boot!
If you think this pricing is high, think again! White Dragon offers unlimited group classes PLUS 1 personal lesson per week. Think of it this way: A personal trainer at a gym will run about $ 60 for 1 hour. Add that up for 4x’s a month and you get $ 240 + if you add in the group classes (which is like a gym membership) you would look at another $ 60+ a month for that. Break it down and it really is a great deal. Plus, you can actually utter the words, «I know Kung Fu»
I live in SF now and we pay basically the same rate for only 4 group classes a month NO private lessons. If you have looked into lessons you know that quality instruction is worth the cost.
White Dragon really helps their students succeed and encourages them to participate in tournaments and other events. I was fortunate enough to attend the Plum Blossom Federation Tournament in Sf and found the White Dragon students and instructors to be on top of their game. During the banquet I sat with some of the White Dragon students and could tell it really had a family feel to it. There was even a student who was only 3 months in and already participated in his first tournament! Awesome!
I encourage anyone who wants to learn something new, learn Kung Fu or even change their life and/​or lifestyle to look into this company. Your health and happiness shouldn’t be constrained by a price tag.
