About Me

It started many years ago when as a young man I was training Gymnastics all the way in the dark eastern block. Hidden behind the Berlin wall and protected by the mighty power of USSR we trained to "better ourselves" and win the gold medals for our Communist mother land. After 12 years or so I started to be interested in JUDO. This was my first introduction to martial arts. In the true spirit of high quality training we learned how to fall for about six months before we did anything else. It seemed a bit tedious and boring but it taught me a lot. My exploits in Martial art could have continued indefinitely but as the life goes, something else got in a way. Berlin began to crumble down under the weight of an archaic government and "velvet revolution" arrived. This was a signal for me to look for something better elsewhere. Shortly after revolution I was on my journey to Australia and the rest is history.
