New to the martial arts and self defense, but I have always loved knives since I was a kid. Wanted to learn how to use one effectively since I cannot carry my handgun everywhere ( I do have a permit). I just started knife training this past weekend with Mario Leone in Bridgeport Connecticut. Mario is a great guy and really took his time teaching me Hock's system. It was evident that he enjoyed what he does and really is an excellent teacher. I have never done anything like this before, but damn, I really loved it. I don't know if Mario is going to see this, but I just wanted to say thank you and that I look forward to our next training session.

So you're one of those nutty people that thinks playing with knives is fun

.

While the ultimate bottomline is self-defense learning the body mechanics and psychology, developing the reflexs and coordination that result in appropriate defense/offensive reactions is a challenging but rewarding experience.

Enjoy the journey!

He enjoyed it rather throughly. I also explained to him the Level of seriousness in his training. Less than lethal methods as well as Lethal.
