Well as you may have guessed my name is Stuart. I have very recently been accepted as an Affiliate Instructor with RAI.
I have trained in various arts over the years including Choi Kwang Do, Ju n Fan / JKD, Kali, SDF Street Combat. I am a registered Master of Seld Defence under Dave Turton of The Self Defence Federation.
Most of my training in the FMA was in Inosanto/Lacoste Kali under Ralph Jones but i have also been lucky enough to attend seminars etc with a number of quality instructors.
Looking forward to being a part of the RAI family.
Cheers
Stuart |

Welcome Stuart, good to have you on board and I am sure your input in this forum will be very much appreaciated.
Maybe if you talk nicely to Riki he will even put up a thread on Self Defence so you guys can gossip and swap ideas in this Forum. Eh! Riki

Hi stuart,
Welcome to RAI and the forum . No doubt we will converse quite a lot on the self defence aspect as I think that all of us regard this as an important thing for all to have some knowledge of
