Sensei Jeff Wegner
Jeff Wegner began his martial arts training in 1988 while serving in the
United States Army.  Stationed in Korea, the birthplace of Tae Kwon Do,
Jeff was able to attain his First Dan Black Belt before his tour was up.  

After leaving Korea, Jeff was next stationed in Fort Bragg, North
Carolina.  While serving at Fort Bragg he began studying under the
chief combative instructor in Cikaron Karate.  Cikaron Karate originated
in the Philippines as a foot fighting system called Sikaron Karate.  The
system changed over the years due to the large amount of rain that the
country received each year, making a strictly kicking art less optimal.  
With the slippery fighting conditions, ground fighting techniques were
implemented out of necessity.  As other arts were blended, Cikaron
Karate was developed.  Some of the various arts implemented include
Judo, Jujitsu, Aikido, Hapkido, American Karate, Shotokan Karate,

and Ninjitsu.

After his military obligations were fulfilled, Jeff returned to St. Cloud in
1992 and began training in the Integrated Martial Arts system(IMA).  
This system includes techniques from Aikido, Jujitsu, Kenpo Karate, and
Tae kwon do.  Jeff eventually received the rank of 3rd Dan in 2003.  In
the fall of 2000, Jeff began teaching the Integrated Martial Arts system.  
The IMA system is a self defense and fighting program that is composed
of techniques and martial arts knowledge that he has accrued since
1988 from teaching and training in the martial arts.

Always looking to evolve and grow as a martial artist, Jeff began
training in Aikido under a 4th Dan in Japanese Aikido.  His intructor had
the rare privilege of training in O Sense's (Aikido's founder) Dojo in
Japan for ten years.  After two years of training, Jeff received the rank
of 5th Kyu in Aikido.


Looking to once again begin his training in the striking arts, Jeff began
training in the Dual Dragons Martial Arts in October of '05, and now
holds the rank of Certified Instructor in the Dual Dragons Jeet Kune Do
system.  He also holds the a blue belt rank in The American Jiu Jitsu
Program, and has recently started training in The Arnis De Mano
Program to further his knowledge in the Weapon arts.
   Shawn Newell is the Co-owner/Operator of Dual Dragons
Martial Arts.  He also serves as the
Head Instructor in the Dual
Dragons Jeet Kune Do program.

Sifu Shawn began his Martial Arts training in Fall of 1996 while
attending Saint Cloud State University.  
After completing his course requirements in the Okinowan Kenpo
class at SCSU, he began under Sifu Mike Rutter in Bruce Lee's
art of Jeet Kune Do in December of '96.  Sifu Mike Rutter is a
Certified Instructor under JKD legend Sifu Ted Wong, one of
Bruce Lee's closest friends, private student, and true historian to
authentic Jeet Kune Do.  Shawn went on to train privately with
Sifu Rutter for over 5 years, and received his Instructor
Certificate in Feb of '01.  During this time he also had the
opportunity to attend annual seminars with Sifu Ted Wong from
1997-2006. Looking to expand his martial arts awareness, Shawn
also spent some time exploring various arts such as Arnis De
Mano, Aikido, and Tai Chi.

Following his Certification in JKD, Shawn dedicated the next two
years towards finishing up his degree in Community Counseling,
and Masters Degree in School Counseling at SCSU.  While
finishing up his Master's Degree, Shawn began teaching Jeet
Kune Do, and in the summer of '04 opened up Dual Dragons
Jeet Kune Do with Sifu Andrew Furman.  Looking to expand the
art, Shawn & Andrew opened Dual Dragons Martial Arts in
December of 2006.
