I got caught up in the hype after viewing those clips and promptly joined his class. What a RIP-OFF!! All it was was scenarios and dummy fighting. There was no moves taught. Also an induction was required before allowed to take part in class. All this consisted of was 4 lessons of basic footwork, kicking and bobbing and weaving. All for £100. You could learn that from a basic self defence book. Bloody discrace. I found him to be obnoxious and his head up his arse.

All I can say is DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE
why not try them both then make a decision, having the chance to train with them two is a luxury most of us don't have and i would take full advantage of it

just my 2 cents
