Mamutti Posted April 28, 2002 Author Posted April 28, 2002 Hi Yoda, I take lesson with Joe Maffei( over an hour drive from here) when I get a chance. I recently bought a house and I am managing the karate school where I regularly train. My training partner lives locally and we get together at our school here to practice. I hope I will have more time after we move. I don't like to take lessons if I have not time to practice! Luckily our school at the upper belt levels incorporates JKD as does the black belt class. I am lucky to study at a very diverse school. Do you know Joe Maffei? He is truly awesome. I began studying martial arts seriously after I attended a workshop he ran. I was so impressed with the way he could move his body and get out of so many stituations-especially on the ground. He teaches BJJ also. Kristin

Mamutti Posted April 28, 2002 Author Posted April 28, 2002 Yoda, Yes I know, that is why I am so upset that I can't make it up to see him. I feel lucky to live as close as I do when I hear from people all over that he is so well respected and that they would love to train with him. Kristin
