He classed up with BUD/s 203 in class with the likes of Clint Emerson and others, finished Hell Week but, suffered a career-changing injury. He was fortunate that as a result of his time and friendships built-in training, to train with a SEAL semi-privately for 2 years in the original RAT System as taught to the Teams.

Most people have no idea how combative JKD really is." @JKDNYC and become officially certified as a Phase One instructor.
