Steel Dragon was initially founded as a lion dance team in 2003. Because good lion dance requires a strong kung fu foundation, Chris started teaching Ying Jow Keun as well. Over a few years, Gong Lung developed a reputation in Pittsburgh for lion dance as well as for kung fu. Eventually, his sifu, Master Zhang Yun, suggested he should teach Baiyuan Tongbei as well. So this informal group gradually grew over the years and became an actual, physical martial arts school in 2009. It continues to grow, and Chris and the students of Gong Lung grow with it. We are often asked if we train girls too. The answer is of course! Girls especially need to know how to defend themselves! We don't care what a person's race, sex, religion, sexual orientation, or whatever is. These have nothing to do with a person's martial arts ability or ethical integrity. When a student is training, s/he is just a martial arts student like everybody else. During class these distinctions don't mean anything.
