Hi Guys

I'm Jonathan. I'm from Johannesburg SA

Trained Kobojutsu when I was a kid but stopped over a decade ago
Pretty much dabbled in a few MA's between then and now

For the past 2 months started training Escrima Doce Pares. It's tough, but enjoying it
(I need to back get into shape :oops:)

Look forward to hearing and learning from you all :)

Hello! Welcome to MT!

It's good to hear that you have decided to take up an MA again. I hope you are doing well. Since "getting back into shape" seems to be an immediate goal for you, should you ever be interested in following a simple workout program to complement your MA training, I'd be happy to draw one up for you.

See you around!

Qualifications:

Certified kettle-bell and body-weight training instructor.

Mostly Fitness. Also because the dojo is small there aren't any beginner classes so I have to try keep up with students more senior than me
Still, the guys are all great and help me along
