 Reference 1

 "Control and safety has always been a priority in Dean’s classes; while he keeps them fun and interesting, Dean won’t tolerate any horseplay or recalcitrance and so, I don’t believe that I have ever seen a serious injury in any of his classes."

 Reference 2

 "Dean has inspired friendship and loyalty in a great many students over the years."

 Reference 3

 "His passion for the martial arts has compelled Dean, since his early teens, to continuously expand his knowledge of and techniques in many different styles; this is clearly evident as his technical ability is second to none."

 Reference 4

 "Dean also understands that different people have different physical abilities - while he always encourages his students to grow, he appreciates that a forty-five year old body is not going to perform the way a twenty year old body will."

 Reference 5

 "It is my opinion that the only thing Dean does better than learn martial arts, is teach martial arts. Dean has the ability to present material, at every level, in many different ways so the student who struggles with a certain concept presented one way, will eventually grasp it when presented another."

 Reference 6

 "Mr. Sutzer’s ability to keep a student’s attention by working different muscle groups and mental faculties kept workouts mostly pain free but always mentally stimulating."

Kempojutsu/Personal Protective Strategies Program

Reference 7

"As a young woman, it has become increasingly important to learn how to protect one's self.  I learned so much from Dean in a comfortable environment.  Dean helps you learn without making you feel uncoordinated (even if you are very uncoordinated).  After my first lesson, I felt like I could have successfully defended myself.  Dean also emphasizes the importance of being aware of your surroundings and preventing problems before they happen.  I learned how to walk to my car after a night class on campus or a similar situation without being vulnerable.  After having completed another self defense class in the past, Dean's class was far superior.  We learned real world situations and how to implement everyday items as defensive weapons.  You could not find a better instructor for Kempojutsu/Personal Protective Strategies."

  "Mr. Sutzer is a great instructor that is a very qualified person to teach the class, his years in the martial arts, experience, and amazing people skills make him a very helpful and caring instructor.  Mr. Sutzer conducts himself very professionally and he is extremely knowledgeable about this subject." 
Mace A.

Reference 9

"A few months ago, a friend of mine was abducted from her apartment and raped. It was a big wake up call. I wanted to do something, anything, to help prevent that situation. After discussing things with my dad, we decided a personal strategies class was best. 

After one class with Dean, I felt more prepared for anything that would come. He was very personable and you could tell he really cared about keeping me safe in the future. I learned so much and now walk around feeling more alert and prepared. To have him as an instructor for a personal strategies class on campus would be an asset to those who want to feel safe and secure, particularly the female students

"You are a great instructor and you really know your stuff! I was highly impressed by your teaching style, knowledge and friendliness."

Qigong

Reference 11 

I find that after a year in this workout program that my range of motion has improved greatly. Also, my balance is much better. Equally important is that my posture and lung capacity are better.
-Barbara S.

Reference 12

Qigong has been a welcome new experience to my life. It has helped with morning stiffness in joints, balance, and overall wellbeing. One of the best things is that no special equipment is needed - just you and the time you put in.
-Joan W.

Reference 13

" I have found both the Tai Chi and the Qigong classes most beneficial for relaxation, stretching, relieving aches and pains, and balance improvement. Dean is an excellent teacher. He is very knowledgeable. He makes the classes fun and interesting. He is very positive with all the students."
