Learn Kung Fu from Master A. Piercey
At Element Martial Arts Calgary, we’re excited to offer Kung Fu lessons for kids, taught by Master A. Piercey, a highly experienced martial artist with over 30,000 hours of teaching. We warmly welcome new students and former members of the Kung Fu for Life community following the dojo’s closure. Master Piercey and our team are thrilled to offer a fresh home for kids to explore the rich world of Kung Fu, whether you're starting out or continuing your journey in martial arts.
A Lifetime of Mastery: Master Piercey’s journey in martial arts began at the young age of four, and over the decades, he has accumulated extensive training and teaching experience. His expertise is grounded in the Shaolin Kempo system, a style focused on self-defense through precision, timing, technique, and control. Unlike tournament-based systems, Shaolin Kempo emphasizes practical, real-world application, stressing verbal de-escalation and non-violent conflict resolution as key elements of self-defense.
A Family Tradition: Martial arts are deeply ingrained in Master Piercey’s family. His father, Grand Master D. Piercey, was a respected instructor who trained under the legendary Grandmaster O.E. Simon for over 20 years. After founding Kung Fu for Life in 2005, Grand Master D. Piercey passed the leadership to Master Piercey in 2011, where he continued to lead the school until its closure in 2023.
A Martial Art of Discipline: Kung Fu, which translates to "time and effort," is a discipline that requires consistent practice and dedication. It not only builds physical strength but cultivates a disciplined mind and a calm spirit. At Element Martial Arts, you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in this transformative practice under the guidance of a master with unparalleled experience and a deep respect for the traditions of Kung Fu.
As children progress through their Kung Fu training and achieve new belts and milestones, they gain a sense of accomplishment. This achievement boosts their confidence and encourages them to tackle challenges in other areas of life with a positive mindset. Contact us today to see how our Kung Fu classes can help your child build confidence and succeed both on and off the mat!
Kung Fu requires students to focus on movements and follow instructions, which helps develop concentration and discipline. The structured environment and goal setting in our classes teach children to be patient, consistent, and focused on their tasks.
