Three Treasures Cultural Arts Society

This organization has so much to offer it’s astounding! The kung fu is amazing. Not only is it a great style to learn but, the people you learn with and the environment you are learning in make it that much better! The support system and positive energy make it easy to come back again and again. The training really goes at your own pace and Sifu Frank Du really watches to make your training specialized to what you can handle. Nothing too easy where you get comfortable but nothing too hard where it’s impossible. He really keeps an eye out to push you to your limits but not over the edge.
Not only is there the great Kung fu but there is the Youth Mentorship Program, an after school program for elementary school students. This program is wonderful and it works hard to build the students into intelligent scholars, confident leaders, and positive people. This program also gives kids opportunities that a lot of them wouldn’t get just in normal day to day life. For example they learn a plethora of things like ukulele, singing, hip hop dance, hula dance, lion dance, Kung fu, chess, and also different world cultures like the Philippines and Peru! This program is very well devolved in building the kids up academically and behaviorally. The staff really focuses on a safe environment that the kids can learn and grow in as well. Overall, this program is amazing because of the way it works with the kids and also the school and parents to help the child wherever they go!
This organization has helped me see a lot of different opportunities and the growth that is needed to build future leaders and to become a future leader as well! This organization is built on so much wisdom and it wants to share it with everyone who is willing to listen and learn in a nice family environment. TTCAS is an organization to definitely check out and see if they can help you like they have helped me!

Sifu Frank and his team run a great after-​school youth mentorship program at Hage Elementary school, which my children currently attend. They get a variety of activities, including academic support and tutoring, homework help, kung fu lessons, music lessons (ukulele), Chinese chess, basketball, arts and crafts, and more. The staff are warm, caring, and engaged. Sifu Frank is community-​minded and has a real heart for children. I’m grateful to know that my kids are well-​cared for and supported when I’m not able to be with them due to work. I highly recommend this organization.

I have taken kung fu lessons from Sifu Du and seen their lion dance performances, but they are more than just a kung fu and lion dance school. There is a reason Three Treasures is a «Cultural Arts Society.» Their involvement in the community is what makes them unique thoroughout San Diego, from cultural awareness at local festivals to sharing the importance of self-​defense with elementary school students.
As for the kung fu itself, I have taken lessons for eight years in the past, but this is the first time that I have understood the meaning and practicality behind each strike, block, and form. Sifu Du cares more about ensuring that each of his students learns quality kung fu (and enjoys the learning process) instead of mass producing martial artists who cannot defend themselves in dangerous situations. If you have ever thought about getting started with kung fu, lion dancing, or general awareness of the Chinese culture, Three Treasures is the perfect place to start!

Three Treasures partners with my son’s school Barnard Elementary. Frank Du and his amazing acrobatic team are a steady presence at the school for all Chinese cultural events, and their performances do not disappoint… ever. I don’t think I could possibly tire of seeing their brightly colored lions and dragons dancing and jumping around at our festivals and big events. It is an impressive display of Chinese culture and pride that makes me even more proud to be part of this community.
But Frank’s involvement in the school merely starts with the lion dancing. My son partook in after school basketball with his crew and loved it. Nevermind that he is only in kindergarten and couldn’t reach the basket. Frank’s team’s support and encouragement made my son feel special and adept nonetheless. We are excited to try Chinese chess, martial arts, and lion dancing lessons next year.

I’m so glad that my son is involved in this organization. He takes the Kung Fu class. He has shown so much improvement and growth from when he first started a few months ago. He loves the instructors and I love how the interaction between students and teachers. They really treat you like one of their own, not only the students but the family of the students as well. I’m so happy and excited to see what the future of Three Treasures has to hold. I know they care about the community and about what they do. I don’t think anyone will find a more genuine organization that has real heart. If you are interested in learning martial arts, or having you child learn Kung fu I highly recommend Three Treasures Cultural Art Society! Two thumbs up :)

The guys at Three Treasures are the friendliest and most professional of the lion dance groups I have encountered in San Diego. They are punctual, nice, and overall, very skilled at what they do. They have danced for my events and several organizations I work with and I will continue to use them. They have a special talent and perform tricks I never see from any other group. Their entire team is polite and friendly. If you’re looking for a lion dance group, I would highly recommend them. They care about the quality of their performances and want to make sure you’re happy with them. Biggest plus for me is that they are very active in the community and individually volunteer for various causes quite a bit as an organization. Sifu Frank is hilarious once you get to know him, too. Kinda.

It was a pleasure working with Frank and company at the Three Treasures Cultural Arts Society. As an event planner at an AA marketing and advertising agency, we are always looking for reliable vendors to help our clients celebrate the Lunar New Year. We’ve worked with numerous lion dance troupes over the course of the past few years and TTCAS was nothing short of exemplary.
I reached out to Frank and co. from a referral and they were great! Our agency is based out of Los Angeles so having a team we could rely on in another city and work directly with one of our biggest clients was a must. From coordination to execution, they were timely and responsive. We hired them for a national conference our client, a Fortune 500 company, was hosting in San Diego and they were thrilled with the performance. TTCAS was entertaining and friendly and even made many of the attendees nostalgic for home.
Would recommend and hire them again!

The gift that keeps on giving! I had a terrific massage with Jimmy that seemed to loosen me up more as the week went on. I felt calm and relaxed coming off the table, but even better the next day. As someone who struggles with tightness and stiffness, I have had my share of massages, but this one really made a difference.

Have a special event coming up?
Want to wow your guests with something unexpected?
How about a traditional lion dance to get some jaws dropping at your next event?
I did! I had recently got married back in NOV 2012 and was in search for that special wow factor to get my guests jaws dropping with joy.
At the time of planning my wedding, my fiancé at the time wanted to do something special for his parents. Something that will bring honor to the family and culture.
Our friends referred us to TTCAS and we couldn’t have been more happier. The founder of TTCAS, Sifu Du was very accommodating to what we needed and when we would like for his team to perform. He always went the extra mile to making sure we would get the best from his team on our special day.
My husband and I would like to send many thanks and blessings to TTCAS for helping make our dream wedding a reality. Their performance left us and our guests jaws dropping and was talked about for weeks. We believe this is what set our wedding apart from all others.
If you have an event coming up and want to wow your guests, I would highly recommend TTCAS!

We have asked Three Treasures to perform the Lion Dance at our Chinese New Year Events and we honestly couldn’t be happier. The Lion Dance itself is extremely entertaining, everyone loves it. Sifu Du and his team are very professional, friendly and extremely respectful. I highly recommend Three Treasures!

Our two boys (ages 10 & 11) have been attending Three Treasures Kung Fu Program the past year. Sifu Du and his staff have been wonderful in setting up a wonderful environment to learn Kung Fu for kids of all ages its history, tradition, and culture. They are nurturing yet disciplined and structured in their teaching.
Very affordable semester dues. They don’t lock you in an office and do a hard-​sell that forces you to sign long term contracts and pays thousands of dollars like other Kung Fu studios in the area that we’ve visited. They don’t over-​promise and under deliver, most importantly, I get a great sense that Sifu Du and the staff are passionate about Kung Fu and want to teach others; they are not just in it to make money.
