Thank You All For Your Support

It’s not always easy to run a business. They’re difficult to get off the ground, a lot of work to manage, and susceptible to the ups and downs of the market – even more so in a city like Calgary, where so much of our economy is dependent on outside forces. If that business fills a small niche in a market, there’s always a question of whether all the effort will be worth the trouble.

But here we are at Kung Fu for Life, many years into our story, and we are still going strong, even when many other places are not. Today we would like to just say thank you to all the people who make that story possible, and keep it going each and every day.

We have seen many other businesses come and go – not only those similar to ours, like MMA-style gyms and physical wellness havens, but even others that seem invincible, like restaurants, coffee shops, or many of the downtown commercial spaces in the buildings of our skyline. Property taxes are skyrocketing and the cost of doing business is higher than ever. It sounds scary – if they can’t make it, how can we?

And yet, we are still going strong, because we have stuck to our roots and our principles. We’re not in business to make profits for shareholders; we are here to help our students live up to their full potential.

Our students are truly the foundation of our success, and we have to say a heartfelt thank you to every one of them. You bring us into your lives every week, you tell your friends and family about our classes and programs, and you allow us to practice the martial arts that we love and spread the knowledge that we’ve spent our lives acquiring. We would not be here without your support, and we hope that all of you know how important you are to the Kung Fu for Life team!

We also must thank our excellent landlord, who have allowed us to pursue our passions and use the studio space for our classes and practice. Many people are not fortunate enough to have such a good relationship with their landlord, so we count ourselves incredibly lucky to know people who understand the value of dedicated martial arts, meditation, and physical activity to a healthy lifestyle.

We can’t predict where Calgary or Alberta will be, decades from now, but we can say this for sure: we are blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people on every side, and we look forward to bringing many more years of service to the community that has welcomed us in. Being part of that community has brought us success in ways that money could never measure, and we can’t wait to teach more students, pass on more knowledge, and improve the lives of Calgarians in 2020 and beyond.
​

One more time: thank you to all of our past and current students, our landlord, all the people who handed the art down, instructors (past and present), our neighbours, our city, and everyone who has been part of the Kung Fu for Life journey since it began!
