My life was stressful so I needed a break, I had to find something that gives me relief. So I decided I look for a martial art instructor here in Orlando and I found Dann. Ever since we started to train, I’ve found passion in it. It’s not just because of the art itself, Dann made it like that too. He’s not just a hell of a fighter, he’s a great instructor, as well. He shares the same level of excitement every time you execute a technique right. Now I’m at my third month and sixth 10 session block. I have already learned more than I did in group classes. He moved to Orlando recently and he is in the process of building his community. On a weekend I got to meet the other guys who he trains with and we all went to a bar to watch a UFC fight. Training with Dann is not just about the sessions, it’s also to be part of a community that shares the same interest and devotion towards the art of Muay Thai.

My Wing Chun instructor, Sifu Moy, is an exceptional teacher because of his deep understanding of the art's foundations and his ability to convey that knowledge to students. He ensures that we start by mastering the fundamentals, emphasizing how the basic moves are like the limbs of a tree, providing stability and strength. From there, we learn to develop techniques that act as the branches, expanding our skills and allowing us to move fluidly. His structured approach builds a strong base, which is essential for progress in any martial art.
What sets Sifu Moy apart is his patience and attention to detail. He doesn’t just teach techniques but takes the time to explain the philosophy and principles behind them, ensuring we grasp the "why" behind each move. When mistakes are made, he doesn’t criticize or make us feel discouraged. Instead, he uses those moments as teaching opportunities, helping us strengthen our understanding. This supportive environment allows students to grow confidently, without fear of judgment, which is invaluable for skill development.
In addition to his expertise in Wing Chun, Sifu Moy helps us see how it enhances our abilities in other martial arts. He shows us that Wing Chun isn't just a standalone discipline but a way to improve our overall martial arts practice. His dedication to his students and his passion for teaching make him an outstanding instructor, and anyone looking to train in Wing Chun would be lucky to have him as a teacher.

I love how knowledgeable Aaron is. I'm a very technical person and had a lot of questions. Aaron was very patient and answered all of them. His technique is also great and I feel as though I can defend myself better than I've ever have because of what Aaron taught me.
