Expert Profile: Marcus Doyle

Expertise:  I can answer questions regarding stylistic differences, self-defense against a variety of attacks, and practical approaches to martial arts.

Experience in the area
I have experience in several styles with most of my time dedicated to Shaolin Kempo and American Kenpo. Other arts include: Tae Kwon Do, Hapkido, Kung Fu, American Kenpo, Judo, Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Tai Chi and several "progressive" fighting systems. My training has spanned over 20 years and have taught a wide variety of students and courses: men, women, specialized short and focused self-defense courses (rape prevention/defense, etc.), casual students, elite athletes, children (age 4+) through elderly (oldest student to date: 79), students with disabilities (blind, deaf, amputees, paraplegic), and students with a wide variety of previous experience and training.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  My training continues on a daily basis, learning and adapting new techniques into a growing system. The idea is to understand the mechanics and principles of martial motion in the most effective ways possible.
