Chris Hoy is under Cass Magda, who is one of the Full Instructors under Guro Inosanto to come out of the superb stable from the Kali Academy in the early 80’s, along with the likes of Chris Kent, Paul Vunak etc. Mr Magda’s organisation does teach a solid base in Bruce Lee’s original art of Jun Fan Gung Fu (JKD), also be aware that they specialise in the Indonesian and Filipino Martial Arts, in particular a heavy emphasis is placed on Pentjak Silat.
The other Gentlemen are part of the late, great Sifu Larry Hartsell’s organisation. Mr Tim McFatridge, who is a member of this forum, is an Instructor in this organisation. Perhaps Tim can offer you some thoughts on what to expect from the training?
