2026 PERFORMERS

Cheng's Martial Arts School

Cheng's Martial Arts School is a family owned and operated studio located in Upper Darby, Delaware County. We welcome all students, regardless of experience and ability. Our school works with the community to provide opportunities beyond the martial arts for all of our students. We have patient instructors who love to work with children but are also very clear about limits. We enforce good rules of behavior in class and we expect the same good behavior at home and in school. Our belt system works as in indicator of the student's knowledge, skill, and attitude. Students will not receive a belt simply because they show up to class and are well behaved, they must earn their rank.
