We wish to take a moment and thank each and every one of our students, supporters and members of our local and global community for the many years of your dedicated enthusiasm for the work we have done through The EDGE Academy. As many people know, Sensei Mike is from Northern Maine. Delaware has been a fantastic place to start a business, meet new friends and become adopted into the community. After careful reflection and a strong desire to be near family, The EDGE Academy will be hosting its final class on Saturday, August 11th 2018.Sensei Mike and Miss Jamie will be relocating to the Southern Maine area in time for Jamie to start the new school year at her new school assignment. There is nothing more precious than family and not being near his relatives for so many years has been a great source of struggle for Sensei Mike. Serving your families and watching your children grow has been his greatest work and he sincerely hopes that his time and energy has been of some benefit to you and your family. Thank you for helping make a life long dream for Sensei Mike come true! We wish you all the best and can assure you that Sensei will be back for visits! For now, if you are a member of EDGE, please come in and take classes while Sensei is still here. Please consider looking into area martial arts schools to continue training. Sussex County is home to some fantastic schools and instructors. Sensei Mike may be unique but he is certainly not the only one who can train you, push you and grow your skills! Don't be shy about enrolling and trying classes elsewhere. From the bottom of our hearts we thank you for absolutely everything. Remember folks: Always improve. Always Evolve. Never Give Up.

Some very wise words from our dear friend John Fitzpatrick from a few years ago. John has trained with me and Sensei Norwood at a Martial Blade Concepts seminar in New Jersey, has been over here with JB Jaeger to assist with teaching and training during their seminars with us. These guys are family and I am so blessed to have them in both my martial as well as personal life. Please take the opportunity to train with these guys when we have them over here to visit. You won't be disappointed!!!

For EDGE Academy adult clients- this is an excellent article written by Michael Janich explaining our system, MBC. I have deep roots in a home grown system here in Delaware. In my college years, I branched off into seminars and training experiences to further my education and fell in love with the Filipino martial arts. Some of you call me "Sensei," however, I am a student who is wiling and eager to share what I have learned as well as expose you to some world class talent and training. This is an industry full of ego and arrogance, rest assured you won't find that mentality at our humble academy. Always improve. Always evolve. Never give up!

Knife fighting has always been one of the most misunderstood topics in self-defense. Although everyone agrees that the knife is a potent weapon, there’s no consensus when it comes to effective edged-weapon tactics. Some practitioners swear by the traditional European and Asian systems. Others look...

For my adults- if you missed our last seminar with our dear friends over at MDJKD- take heart! We have a close relationship with these folks and there is a chance that Sifu Yeager, Sensei Fitzpatrick and Sensei Mike may be working with Doug Marcaida next month in Virginia. If you've watched "Forged In Fire" on History Channel, you've seen Doug do blade testing. We work hard to bring some unique training experiences that crush the mold of typical class offerings. We seek to bring you the best so that you may become the best version of yourself. Stay tuned for some upcoming news!
