Martial art and life experience:

Daniel Hyde has had a passion for martial arts since early on in life! He began his martial art practice in junior high. One of his friends at the time in gym class had exceptional fitness. When Daniel asked him what he did to get so good at running, push ups and other exercises he said "I practice karate 3 times a week, want to join me?" This began Daniel's journey in the martial arts. He started off with his friend training in Karate and a few years later pursued Kwan Ying Chuan (Do) Kung Fu, and Yang style Tai Chi Chuan under Dave Cial. Little did he know the profound impact these arts were going to have on his later endeavors.

Upon turning seventeen, he joined the Marine Corps Infantry as an Assaultman. The time he spent in Combat and rigorous military training tested his resolve physically and psychologically. To deal with the added stress he firmly established his Kung Fu and Tai Chi practice as a way to heal his body and mind through the struggles of military life.

After noticing distinct benefits to his overall health, he decided to study at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine. While there, he met a great friend and mentor, Dr. B. Tony Zayner. Through Dr. Zayner he continued his growth and advancement in massage, healing and Yang Tai Chi Chuan.

Mr. Hyde completed his Associates Degree in Applied Sciences of Massage Therapy in August of 2011! With this he continues to spread the healing of the orient with many people.

Now residing in North Carolina, Mr. Hyde is teaching in Greensboro. He has always been ready to help all who came in contact with him, inside or outside of class. He is more than ready to share his experiences and healing with you and "y'all" fine people of North Carolina. :)
