  • I have been training at Applied Fighting Methods with Sifu Mike for about 4-5 months and the experience has been invaluable. I didn't have any martial arts training prior to joining and Sifu Mike has helped to make the transition as smooth as possible. If you are feeling apprehensive, don't. It is natural and I certainly felt the same way, but believe me, this is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I am extremely happy that I followed through and joined this group. The camaraderie has been amazing with Sifu Mike and the rest of the students. We are all very respectful of each other. That culture is maintained by Sifu Mike and it makes the learning process extremely enjoyable. One of the things I really enjoy about the classes is the variety of styles taught (JKD, Wing Chun, etc.). In addition, Sifu Mike has a unique way of describing what we are doing and what it would be useful for as well as transitions to other techniques and styles. He gives demonstrations on how to properly perform the technique in order for it to be most effective and precise. He also constantly switches up the lessons, which makes them more interesting and fun to be involved with. Sifu Mike is a very patient teacher as well, while at the same time he pushes you to get better. He understands that yelling at someone will not necessarily help them understand better. I have never heard him raise his voice. Sifu Mike is a wealth of knowledge and as long as you approach class/training with an open mind and are willing to learn as well as show up regularly, he will take the extra time to make sure you are getting the support you need. The fact that the class sizes are kept small also ensure the effectiveness of the teachings as you get very hands on (almost private) instruction. I also value that Sifu Mike takes safety very seriously and he is constantly showing us how to remain safe throughout our drills. The only thing needed to validate his knowledge is to spend a couple minutes talking with him. You will be impressed, as I certainly was, when I first spoke with him. Sifu Mike is selfless in his teachings as evidenced by the fact that he provides his home and equipment for us all to use 4 days a week. The fact that his instruction is FREE is unbelievable. It is truly apparent that he is a teacher at heart and sincerely wants to help others succeed while continuing to develop his already tremendous skills. Consider yourself lucky that you found this opportunity and if you are thinking this is too good to be true, you are right, but it is still TRUE. This is the first time I have engaged in something were there wasn't a ulterior motive involved by the person running it. I know I have a lot of work left to achieve my goal of being proficient at these styles, but with Sifu Mike's help, there isn't a doubt in my mind that I will be successful. Thank You Sifu Mike for everything you do.
