I started my martial arts training in 1998 after I got back from Basic training for the Army

National Guard. Like most people who are new to the martial arts I tried several arts before

finally settling on styles that really worked for me. I tried Aikido, Judo, Jeet Kune Do, Gracie Jujitsu, Tai Chi, Wing Chun Kung Fu and Kali before discovering Commando Krav Maga.

I studied Aikido, and Judo for about six months each before moving on to Jeet Kune Do,

Gracie Jujitsu and Tai Chi, which I studied for approximately 1 year each. I studied Wing Chun

for about 3 years under Dave Mercado in Carbondale, IL. After he earned his Graduate degree

and left town, I started training in Kali with a friend from class. I have studied Kali for many

years under different instructors and I am still continuing my training.

After I came back from Iraq I knew that I needed a new art to study. After researching a lot of options I discovered Commando Krav Maga and Moni Aizik. After reading his website and watching his videos on YouTube I decided I had to train with him. Over the years I have found
that the most important part to finding a good martial art to study is finding a good teacher and Moni Aizik is the best instructor I have ever met.
