1. Hi Pam, what is your Martial Art in which you train and why?
2. How long have you been training and why the practice of Martial Arts?
Kickboxing/Thai, when I first started training 18 years ago there wasnt much choice but I am glad because I love kickboxing even though I have now tried other arts.
Also I am a massive Bruce Lee fan I used to watch him for hours and think to myself " I want to do that ".

Near enough 18 years on and off because I tried gyms, exercise classes etc and none of them did anything for me, martial arts gives me the biggest buzz its a passion.
