Fight Club

For a little over a year now Jerry and I have been training in Krav Maga which is the Israeli self-defense system. We have really enjoyed it but Jerry has particularly taken to it and shown a lot of natural talent. He has passed two grueling level tests and is getting ready for another. I'm not so naturally talented so it takes me a little longer and I am only level 2. It is a great system that is very practical and provides some great fitness. Jer has actually even gone through an instructor training and is teaching! So an opportunity came up to go out to California and further his training under the one and only Bas Rutten and he jumped on it! For three days Jerry trained so hard he could wring the sweat from his shirts, even going through two shirts each day! His hard work paid off and he passed his test! This was an amazing accomplishment and I am so proud of him! On Bas' site there is a picture of the latest group down near his Facebook link, http://www.basruttensystems.com
Way to go, Jer! I'm so proud of you!
