Explore the world through martial arts

If I wouldn't have all my various projects to work on and they need to be completed as planned... honestly another good plan is to travel the world. Just hitch hike in my Gi and visit a worldwide list of martial arts places. Dojos, events, important people and so on. 

Everybody could do so. Come and join Ichinen Bridport Jiu-Jitsu. Learn the basics and off you go!
