"In Master D'Angelo, I found an unwavering commitment to deepening his studies, supported by unquestionable intellectual integrity. This approach has been, in fact, a revolutionary difference compared to my past martial experiences. His research has led him to explore ancient knowledge directly with masters of the previous generation, filtering and translating traditional wisdom into a modern language accessible to everyone. A unique aspect that I continue to experience in my relationship with him is his generosity and constant willingness to share, which makes him an exceptional teacher and communicator."

 

"I have been practising martial arts for many years, studying under numerous teachers and exploring different styles. What I found in Master D'Angelo and in his teachings goes far beyond style and technique—there is something much deeper… something you must experience to understand. It is a true journey of self-discovery, where the only thing that truly matters is practice. There are no secrets: everything is shared openly and clearly. His teaching is sincere, heartfelt, and accessible to everyone, from beginners to advanced practitioners. Thanks to his research in China and a life entirely dedicated to the martial arts in all their dimensions, each of us has the opportunity to develop, refine, and broaden our understanding, regardless of our background. The human and special relationship that each person builds with him makes the practice unique and genuinely transformative."

 

"When I first met Mauro D'Angelo, I was immediately struck by his kindness, calm presence, passion for teaching, and his ability to convey fundamental principles in a clear and accessible way. As I got to know him better, I learned to appreciate many other qualities. Above all, one that is truly rare: Mauro is able to understand what each student needs most, and he always finds a way to teach through direct experience rather than abstraction. He works on individual principles through specific modules designed to develop skills one at a time. The sequence of work is equally important: each step is built upon the level previously established. All of this makes his approach exceptionally clear and the learning path well-structured."

 

"There are many opportunities to interact with the Master, who spends most of his time in China: seminars, conferences, and virtual platforms. His generosity and ability to share his personal research and experience in the field of Eastern arts and philosophy are truly exceptional. Today, the extra space I discovered within myself continues to live and transform through practice — perhaps the most effective form of self-defence I could ever have hoped to learn."

 

I have been teaching Qi Xing Tang Lang Quan, Tai Ji Quan, and other martial arts systems for 25 years, and I have studied under masters whom I deeply respect. I realised that Master D'Angelo offers a path unlike anything I had encountered before. His method is independent of style and focuses on what is essential across all systems: building a truly solid and functional “martial body.”

 

"The visible aspect of martial arts is the technical side, which can be used in combat situations. When you start learning Kung Fu through other systems, it is easy to focus exclusively on this and believe that you will achieve it through dedication and consistency. I did exactly that, but the only outcome was a series of injuries to my arm, which made me question whether I should stop, as my body did not seem able to adapt to that kind of physical training."

 

"Master Mauro A. D'Angelo is a humble, generous, and open-hearted person towards all those who wish to approach the essence of martial arts with love and dedication. Now in my 43rd year of martial practice and research, I have found—through Master D'Angelo's teachings—a deeper evolution and awareness in my training: grounding and stability in my movements have significantly increased."
