Born in London on the 18th April 1990 I took up Chum Kune Do at the age of 6 to exercise and keep fit. At the age of 6. I was afraid of going to Chum Kune Do as I was the youngest one there and didn't have a suitable partner to work with. However, my Father pushed me to continue explaining how Chum Kune Do may not benefit me a lot at the age of 6; however he promised that Chum Kune Do would benefit me later in life. This promise was fulfilled when I was 11, after walking up pump Lane (Rainham Kent) to the bus stop. After being pushed several times, I remained calm and defended myself successfully, using a skipping kick into the opponent's gut, which knocked my opponent over a wall and into a bush. Since that incident I was inspired by how effective Chum Kune Do is, encouraging me to work twice as hard and train twice as much. Since then, I have achieved in January 2005 I passed my grading, moving me onto black sash, and have been promoted to 1st Degree black sash. I have also been given the opportunity to train my own class on Saturday. My class consists of a large range of age groups from infants to adults, which sufficiently tests my instructing skills to find universal training methods. I attempt to make every lesson different and increasingly more challenging. Students may hate me for this, but, as my father promised me, I will promise them, that what I teach will come of use in the future. However, remember:
Finally, I would like to thank my teacher, Master Clifford for patiently teaching me Chum Kune Do, Training me to my limits and helping me to progress continuously. I would also like to thank my father for introducing Chum Kune Do to me and pushing me to continue Chum Kune Do when I doubted myself My achievements are
