Sifu McGuire traveled to China, Hawaii, Japan, Korea and the Phillipines while he was in the Air Force,  studying and exchanging knowledge. In 1981, he returned home looking for a complete system of Martial Arts that fit his movement.  This led him to the Wah Lum Tam Tui Northern Praying Mantis system. Where he studies to this day, under Si Baak Bob Rosen and Grandmaster Chan Pui.

In February 2002, Sifu McGuire traveled to Hawaii with the US Martial Arts Team and won 4 Gold Medals. He has also been inducted into the Martial Arts Hall of Fame in Ohio.
