Michael William Denney uses the name ThunderWizard as an online persona/brand. He teaches and creates courses on shamanism, manifestation, energy work, runes, Norse mythology, and related esoteric subjects.

Here are examples of  courses, and teaching modules, and sub-topics:

  • A structured, multi-part course covering step-by-step teachings in shamanic practice as interpreted by Thunder Wizard. This is a foundational curriculum for the path he teaches.
  • Modules likely included (based on tier descriptions and subscriptions):
  • Fundamentals of Syncretic Shamanism — Core principles, worldview, and shamanic cosmology.
  • Spiritual Ritual and Ceremony Practices — Guided instruction in building and performing ritual work.
  • Energy & Spirit Interaction Techniques — Shamanic approaches to connecting with spirit allies other than ordinary meditation.
  • Advanced Practices (Higher-Level Components) — Visitations, altered states, and deeper apprenticeship-style work available at higher tiers.
Specialized Practicum Courses
  • Mao Shan Spirit Fighting and Qigong Training
  • A series of practical energy-work classes adapted from what the creator describes as Mao Shan shamanic energy techniques. These are sold individually or as part of advanced tiers on :
  • Celestial Qigong – Foundation of Mao Shan Energy Work
  • A full class focused on standing postures, qigong rituals, and seated meditations designed to open and circulate energy (lightning meridians of the “heart-mind”).
Mao Shan Shamanic Spirit Fighting Moving Forms (Five Element Sets)

• A multi-part physical/spiritual practice where each set (Wood, Metal, Fire, Water, Earth) corresponds to a different elemental energy and practice form.
• The Earth Set, for example, involves grounding and restoring trust, and is part of a sequence requiring completion of the other four before balanced practice.

These modules combine movement, breathwork, and energy focus meant for personal cultivation or spirit-fighting skills.
  • Warrior & Light-Body Development Programs
  • Warrior 90 Day Challenge
  • This appears to be a structured, multi-week training program tied to strengthening energy, willpower, and “light body” activation through repeated practice.
