Ohh okay.

But see, when someone says the best in Australia it doesnt mean much cause i mean AU fighters *in relation to martial arts* are no where as good as those overseas. And i mean how many ppl compete in AU?

lol. I know someone who came 6th in the WORLD competition last year held in China :p

hehe. Still gud though. What subject did they teach?

I've done GKR Karate for about 10 years now. It's been a long ride and next level is black belt. Anyone else do GKR? If so, I probably have seen you! LOL
