Taqqee was awesome to work with! We wanted to host a self-defense lesson for some women from work to celebrate International Women's Day, and he was able to accommodate all of our needs. From the time & place to how many people, he was able to make our setup work and gave us an awesome lesson! I would love to work with him again!

Taqqee truly is a gift to the world. He has extraordinary passion and motivation for helping people. He is an extremely skilled practitioner and teacher of self-defense, and has helped me grow tremendously in the few months we have been working together. I have learned that martial arts is not limited to only physical self-defense, but mental and spiritual self-defense as well. Taqqee has and continues to help me understand this.
