WORDS FROM WORLD CLASS MASTERS
..
Apart from the hundreds of positive feedbacks from the public and seminar attendees, the videos received words of support from known and high ranked martial arts masters and instructors internationally, whom personally I would love to meet and train under. I would like to sincerely thank each an every one of them for thier time in doing so. It is truely an honor.
.
Through mutual respect, I have also written thier experience, background and links to thier websites. The martial arts community has no place for egos and closed minded people who always thinks they have the best "reality" technique. I have travelled the world, met and worked with many martial practitioners and professionals who lay thier life on the line everyday, all I can say is that the world doesnt need "sad" closed minded individuals.
..
Below are some of the positive feedbacks given by world class instructors and weapon masters. The feedbacks are not arranged in any specific order except that all latest feedbacks are at the bottom of the page.
