I`m Jonny Edvinsson, I still remember the movement
I open the door of a dojang for the first time,
its was for me a real discovery, a revelation!


 

remember the screams, the smell of sweat, the atmosphere filled with considerable concentration and the practising girl in red belt, who made that cool technique, with a balance of speed, power and respect to his opponent, but I also saw that the technologi had a clear deadly purpose. I got a feeling of great community, all have fun despite the hard dynamic training and I remember also, it was quiet in the dojang, the students have focus on what their master instructed, to be able to master the new technologies...

Sure, in a while I will be one of them! 

Several decades have passed, I’ve collacted lots experience and my black belt has begun fringed up and become grey. It was from that moment I was told that people used the title martial arts expert about me. I have not satisfied myself with just practicing only one style, but I have mastered four martial arts styles. Hapkido, Haidonggumdo, Jiu-jitsu and Taekwondo.
I trained other disciplins (weapons) as well, Jangbong and Dae-Na-Mu Bong Sul, Bo-Jo jutsu and Kungfu long weapons for many years. Where the foundation is in my long rod weapons experience. Unfortunatebly I have not been able to upgraded me in these weapons, because there has ben no system with only long rod weapons.


I have a great passion for martial arts overall, trained martial arts for over 35 years and long staff is one of my favorite training eqiupments.
My experience with long staff and that there aren’t that many long pole weapons styles to train, then it was obvious to me to created a martial art, modern sport and a weapon art...
