This amazing journey continues… I started training in the martial arts around 1980 in a small way. Karate was the main discipline of the time. It was 1990 when I joined up with Ed Downey at his Kenpo club in Celbridge. I was with Ed for many years. In the latter stages of training I trained at Portlaoise Kenpo Karate. I was also and Instructor here for many years for both Junior and Senior students. I ran the Friday night sparring class for many years. Receiving my black belt in 2011. My interest in Krav Maga began a few years previous. Toward the end of 2011 I also became a KMG Krav Maga Instructor after 180 hours for extensive training and started Krav Maga Portlaoise and Midlands. I John Collins have been running this club ever since and progressing up the ranks in KMG and have expanded my knowledge greatly due to working with many great KMG experts from all over the world. Currently Expert Level 1 (Black Belt)
