Wu Wei Martial Arts

Very professional, highly recommended!

Michael knows exactly what hes doing Ive learned so much from him already Ive trained with other trainers and no one comes close to him he is an absolute beast he takes time to teach you, Hes patient, hes flexible with schedules my overall experience with Michael and his training are fantastic I recommend everyone to definitely give him a try if your looking to do martial arts Michael is the trainer for you!! Id give him 20 stars if I could

Where do i start, working with michael is like working with a true teacher, the attention to detail and the easiness of how he explains and teaches is amazing.

This experience is definitely one I wont remember. All the techniques are used in everyday life. It adds a certain structure to my life making thinking and moving easier on me as I grow and continue to practice the movements and techniques

I have received personalized martial arts instruction from Michael Dwyer for over four years and I can say that he is unequivocally the best instructor I have ever had. My day job is working at a 766 special education out of district school as a special educator and in the capacity I have had ample opportunity to learn about what it takes to be a good teacher. Not only does Michael have a lifelong love of improving his own martial arts skill, he also has a deep passion for fostering that desire in others. Michael patiently works with each student to meet them at their individual level, whether they are experienced fighters, young children just starting their journey, or adults who have decided to step into the ring to find out something about themselves. One of my favorite aspects of Michaels instruction is that his focus is not a teaching a specific way to do things but rather on helping students to cultivate within themselves the means for self-expression through martial arts. Countless times, in moments of anxiety, I would question if I was doing something right or experience doubt as to how to learn a particular technique and in those moments Michael would patiently guide me to a greater understanding of not only the art but also myself. Michael has an innate skill for pushing students to be better than they thought they could be and I would often be amazed at how often I thought I could not spend another second on my feet only to find that with Michaels guidance I would find the capacity to throw those few extra punches. Martial arts deserves the utmost respect and Michaels respect for his craft as well as for passing on the lineage means that his students cultivate abilities far beyond increased physical stamina and skill. I particularly enjoyed how Michael would weave philosophy throughout his lessons so as to enrich my understanding on the martial arts, myself, and the world at large. A teacher should be an expert in their subject matter but beyond that it is imperative that a teacher can help their students to understand the subject. In this regard Michael excels, as his varied interests mean that he is always able to find a way to help his students connect. Whether it is describing slipping a hook as Santa Claus picking up a sack of toys or rattling off the original names of a technique in the original language; whatever your level of understanding Michael will cater his lesson to you. As a teacher I can tell you that we dont teach for the money or the summers off but rather for those wonderful moments when we can help students to grow. Michael is a phenomenal martial artist and an incredible teacher. If I could sum up my experience with Michael with one anecdote it would be this: I was sparring with Michael one time, early on in my training with him, and even though I lacked confidence in my ability Michael was pushing me to keep sparring. Suddenly I managed to land a shot, hitting Michael in the face. I wasnt used to sparring and was worried that I might have hurt him but he shook it off immediately and leaped with joy and starting saying how proud he was of me. In that moment I learned something about martial arts, about respect in sparring but most of all I learned that my Sensei was someone who was happy to get hit in the face if it mean that his student was learning and in my mind that captures everything a person could need to know about Michael as a teacher.

How knowledgeable and pationate about what they teach the trainer was. Made me feel very comfortable and confident and i learn so much more than expected.
