About
For my entire lifetime, I have dedicated myself to the practice of martial arts and have been teaching self-defense in Ann Arbor for seven years. Empowering individuals through martial arts is a true passion of mine, as I firmly believe that everyone has the innate right to protect themselves. To achieve this, we provide reasonably priced, top-tier classes for the average person.

My extensive background encompasses a wide range of martial arts including Judo, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Hapkido, Silat, and Kali. Moreover, being the only certified Satria Instructor in Michigan sets me apart from others. Over my career, I have conducted self-defense workshops for different entities like Concordia University, Alpha Gamma Delta Sorority, Gamma Phi Beta Sorority, U of M, EMU, Pengicon The Barre Code Ann Arbor. Currently, my classes are held at the Close Quarters Combat Academy in Ann Arbor.

I am incredibly satisfied with the training he provides. My three children are currently under his guidance, and I am impressed by his ability to not only develop their physical abilities but also challenge them mentally. I would confidently recommend him to anyone seeking top-notch training. In fact, I plan to train with him as well!

The instructor is rated as 5 stars and is known for being both knowledgeable and patient. Each lesson yields noticeable improvements, and after only a few sessions, your striking abilities will experience a significant enhancement.

Taqqee is a true blessing to humanity with his exceptional drive and enthusiasm to assist others. As a proficient and adept master of self-defense, he has tremendously aided my growth since we began collaborating months ago. Through his guidance, I've realized that martial arts comprises not only physical safety measures but also mental and spiritual ones. Taqqee has been instrumental in instilling this understanding within me and continues to do so.
