I have attended this class for only a couple of months, coming in without any experience in martial or warring arts. Michael is very considerate of everyone's level of experience, and helps you individually. The pace is manageable enough that you're able to better learn the techniques, but every class is still new and interesting. I particularly enjoy the historical background Michael provides. You can tell he is incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about his work. I have thoroughly enjoyed training under Michael and I would recommend this school to anyone of any experience.
