Simply Gung Fu Countryside Arts

If you are considering martial arts training at all, I urge you to check out Sifu Riley. I have over 20 years experience in traditional martial arts, and I can tell you that his level of skill He's extremely hard to find in the United States, and even in Asia. This is NOT strip mall Kung Fu. You will develop valuable skills and experience the training necessary to use them when it counts. If you are within a couple of hours of the school, I strongly recommend you go check it out. I believe you will be very impressed.

Riley is incredibly knowledge, dedicated, and skilled. He is the real deal, and great to work with.

"Sifu" Riley decided to come to my free sessions at the Mendelssohn Performing Arts Center to issue a dojo storming challenge. After grabbing me by the throat during, what I thought, was going to be a pushing hands excercise, and exclaiming to the other student who showed up that day "Eagle claw kills the man" I decided to be serious and play a bit with him. He didn't like it that I touched him lightly in the jaw with my fist several times, while he struggled to land a blow on me and he took the fight to the ground with a clumsy back throw. I wanted to see what he would do from there on, but to my boredom, he put me in a poorly formed Jujigatame attempt, which I easily escaped from. I then passed his guard, assumed top mount, and began to apply a coiled arm lock and he shouted for me to stop. You see, he had scratched me earlier with one of the many rings he was wearing and I was bleeding a little and he was afraid of the diseases I might have had. It certainly wasn't because I was about to dislocate his shoulder and there was nothing he could do about it, except possibly get the the knife he had in his pocket. Did he think that I didn't notice that? Riley claims to know a lot about martial arts, but one of my beginners could have probably beat him. He is dangerous and will work you to the bone but impart very little knowledge.
