- Studied kick boxing
- 1st Dan
- Loves traditional weapons
Kick boxing has given me the edge in Ju jitsu sparring. I get a kick out of tapping the big boys on the nose with my glove.
Biography:
Originally from Romania, I was lucky enough to find Poole Ju jitsu and never looked back. I've been training for 8 years in Ju jitsu and tried Thai Boxing, Aikido, Judo & Kung Fu.
Professional Life:
Working for Lush cosmetics gives me time to train and develop my skills. My teenage son keeps me busy and I love the beach.

Self Defence
I love the intensity of the Ju jitsu techniques and won't be doing my 2nd dan anytime soon.
Claudia is a great sparring partner due to her background in kick boxing.
Being on the mat is a great stress relief for me. I really enjoy the variety of techniques and you can make them as simple or as complex as you like.
