Previous Martial Arts Training includes Dev Barratts (ECKA) English Contact Karate Association and also in The Rugby Irish Amateur Boxing Club. Both of these helped create a very firm foundation in the combat arts. In fact, we are still involved with ECKA today.

Malcolm's Mother trained in Ju Jitsu with Master John Farkas, here in Rugby many years ago. The lessons learned at home had a big impact in Malcolm seeking further Instruction in later years. However, the appetite for Ju Jitsu came from a training course with the Army Cadet Force which was organised by the RAF Regiment in Germany back in the 1980's. Their unarmed combat course was an excellent introduction to the very practical side of Ju Jitsu.

Malcolm is also an experienced Dog Trainer, has trained dogs at the highest level in obedience, agility, working trials and for movies. I'm sure you will be familiar with 101 Dalmatians, where Malcolm helped train dogs and Puppies for both of the movies. A job which also requires great patience.
