About Me

Im 34 years young, active, hardworking,and passionate about KUNG FU,MUSIC and PEOPLE!! I used to dj jungle/drum and bass back in the early/ mid nineties on Pirate Radio for a few years in London. But that seems like a long time ago now.... , Shout to the ex ENERGY 87.9Fm Crew from Mission!!! I now live on the South Coast, which is great because I love the sea, but I won't swim in my local ;-) When i lived in London, i used to spend many a happy weekend out, at the various Hardkore,Jungle and Drum n Bass clubs and raves.Alas,not so much anymore....! Outside of work i spend much of my time training in Wing Chun Kung Fu,in which i have found many benefits... and friends.(i highly reccomend it to everyone;click on the link at the top of my profile)

My Interests

I love cooking and I go mad with it when I get the chance. I also enjoy eating out with a nice bottle of wine from time to time. I am into various types of music, I love films especially comedies. I spend much of my spare time training in Great Grandmaster Leung Ting's Style of Wing Chun Kung Fu.I used to train under the Wing Tsun organisation,(the NWTO and EWTO)but now under the KUNGFUSCHOOLS banner,headed by Master Paul Hawkes and his Top Class team.I currently study Wing Chun with the 1066 area Chief Instructor,Neil Gould during the week,who's enthusiasm is infectious,and on Saturdays train at the main 'kwoon'(Do-Jo in Japanese)in Crawley with Master Paul and Si-Hing Wes,Al Sawyer and Karim. I am hoping to be an instructor in the not too distant future and absolutely love and am absorbed in this fantastic Martial Art.

I'd like to meet:

I would like to meet caring, honest, fun loving people, those who care about their fellow humans around the world, their environment and those who have a respect of nature. I would love to hear from anyone who is into Wing Chun, or any other Kung Fu styles.(NO BAD MOUTHERS! I respect ALL styles of Kung Fu,and ALL Martial Artists.)
