One of our loyal and advanced students Al, has just had a wonderful addition to his family. On Sunday 4 May, baby Alexander weighing in a 3.32kg(7.11lb), was born in just under 2hrs to Al and his wife Miyoko. Mother and child are doing fine, with dad recovering nicely from his ordeal.    We would like to congratulate Al and Miyoko, and also would like to extend our thanks to the kind police officer who let them off with a warning after pulling Al over for speeding on their way to the hospital.    We look forward to seeing you back at training soon, and also with Alexander in about 16-years.

Pregnancy Announced - (14 Jan 08) 

   We have just received news that two of our students, Jenny and Neil, are expecting a baby boy! Jenny just told me that she is 18-weeks and 5-days pregnant today (but who's keeping track ). The due date is 9 Jun 08.

   From the KMTA, our instructors, and students, we wish mother and child the best health over the next 5 months, and, of course, for dad's sanity to remain intact.

   All the best! Cngratulations from all of us.

Band Listed on Triple J Unearthed - (11 Jan 08)

   One of our students, Rodger, has just had his band "The Brave" listed on Triple J Unearthed! Though Rodger has been working endless hours in the studio (as has the rest of the band), he has managed to keep us updated with their progress.

The Brave

   We just want to congratulate Rodger and the rest of The Brave for achieving this awesome milestone in their music career! Help launch them in to the music charts by visiting them both at Triple J Unearthed, and on their official The Brave Myspace page. Download and listen to their music. If you like it, submit reviews/ratings (good ones to Triple J, constructive ones directly to them).

   Well done guys! We hope to see you up on the charts really soon (and Rodger, back to training mate!)

Birth of a Baby Girl - (05 Jan 08)

   At 12:39pm (AEDST) on 05 January 2008, baby Isabel Grace was born. Her proud father is one of our original and most dedicated students in Sydney. We would just like to congratulate Bernie and Janet on the birth of their little girl. We wish you all the best with your new family, and look forward to having Isabel along to training soon (well, in about 16-years anyway).

Singing with a choir - Jim (04 Oct 07)

   One of our long-standing students Jim finally realised one of his life-long dreams: to sing on stage with a choir. What better way to fulfil this dream then with an African choir raising money for African students' tuition fees in Australia!

   We are proud of Jim for two reasons:

• he has finally gotten to fulfil a dream (not many people do)
• Jim selflessly donated his time and energy to assist in furthering such a good cause

Krav Maga students wedding - Brooke & Craig (05 Sep 07)

   We are very excited about the first wedding of Krav Maga students in Australia! Brooke and Craig have been training with us since early 2006. No, we can't take credit for introducing them as they were already a couple before coming along to classes, but we are proud no-less! The beach wedding took place in beautiful Hawaii with family and friends in attendance.

   Congratulations to the beautiful bride and groom. All the best for the future, and we look forward to seeing you back at class soon (though not too soon).
