I was able to take my 1st self-defense course from Max the other day. I must say that the course was very interesting and informative. I learned some valuable skills that can last a lifetime. Max is very knowledgeable in the area of self-defense. I would definitely recommend anyone interested in learning self-defense skills to take a course under Max. Believe or not, just from my 1st class, I am already excited about learning about martial arts. Max is such an awesome teacher and instructor, you will definitely want to do another class under Max. He has deep understanding and love for teaching martial arts. Max wants to see his students grow and excel in area of self- defense.

Max is awesome. In the 3 weeks I’ve been training, I’ve learned a lot. He is very cool and down to earth. He is also informative. I can see a shift in my lifestyle already..thanx to Max. My only regret is that I didn’t find him years ago.

(Ayurveda 2) "Although it is a lot of information to take in for a beginner like me, it’s obvious that the instructor is knowledgeable and gives a great overview of the subject. I’ll definitely be reviewing this course a few more times. I love that I can refer back to the different herbs recommended for the health issues covered here. I’m taking away some very practical, helpful information about such conditions as PCOS, prostate enlargement, cancer and even suggestions for common skin conditions and many more. Completely worth it! I eagerly look forward to future courses from this instructor."

I took my first self defense course from Max. I was a bit nervous about the process, but Max puts you at ease and is calm and patient. I am a female with two children who I now feel more capable of protecting if the need should ever arise. Max is very knowledgeable in this subject area and addresses legitimate circumstances that people could find themselves in. I recommend taking this self defense course to anyone!

"This was my first self-defense training class - it’s something I’ve always wanted to do, but just never took the time. SO glad I found Sifu Myers for this type of training. He’s extremely knowledgeable in all things martial arts-related, but more than that ... he is a natural teacher - patient and perceptive of the student. The session was jam-packed! I learned SO many useful techniques for protecting myself.....(And...as a 5’3, petite, single woman, I am especially excited to have this extremely valuable knowledge.)" "Thank you, Sifu Myers! I will definitely be taking more of the many different types of classes you offer."

"The e-sesssions are perfect for travel. I'm spending 12 months camping in the woods of Australia. Max makes the classes challenging and interesting, fusing various skills from complimentary martial arts styles. Always a variety of valuable tips and theory to back it up and that's what keeps me practicing between classes. His knowledge is only exceeded by his patience and willingness to help. After 4 martial arts schools over the last 10 years, this program fits my life the best. I highly recommend giving it a closer look."

"Taking Kung Fu classes with Max is on the list of Best Things I've Done For Myself, along with getting my master's degree in engineering from Georgia Tech and living for a year in Central America. Through years of traveling, I've been lucky enough to study with many martial arts instructors, but none were quite like Max. His "simple plan, hard work" philosophy applies to anything I do. Patient, inspiring, and genuine, he is the real deal."

"I met Max In Washington state and asked for help training for upcoming grappling competitions. Max was so thorough with nutrition, balance, specific technique (in both practical fighting and specialized Kung fu), enduarance and strength training, and mental preparedness that I grew tremendously and started a winning streak that continues today. His knowledge is seemingly limitless, but beyond that, his ability to understand each individual is remarkable. He not only listened to me, but intuitively knew about my needs based on our interactions and training sessions. If you can train with a Max Myers, you are in for a life-changing shift. My life has been forever altered for the better by training with Max."

"Max Myers is a fantastic coach. I started training in kung fu with him in 2013. In the past decade, I have trained with many teachers, and Max is definitely one of the best. He pushed me to my limits and helped me achieve my goals. Even after I moved away, he continued to check on me and encourage me. Just recently, he helped me train for a fight. He gave me great nutrition advice, too. Overall, Max has always been there to help push me to be a better martial artist. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to pursue martial arts or anyone wanting to get in shape and be healthy."
