I truly love sharing the gifts of martial arts that my master, Master Jin, has shared with me. The best way to maintain a commitment to staying in shape is to do it in a fun, challenging way. Everybody learns differently and I can tailor my teaching to help each student's personal needs. Great teaching involves stripping away the student's obstacles more than it involves adding skills. My goal is to have all of my students pass me up in martial arts prowess. This would truly make me a great teacher." — Michael Laird
