David, who is also Senior Coach at the local martial arts centre on the Woodside Road, The Dojo, enjoyed the long weekend, which was composed of a National Black Belt Grading, along with a world-class training course at which David was billed in the top three along with President for WJJF/WJJKO International – Shike Giacomo Spartaco Bertoletti and Head of county for Israel, Amir Barnea.

Shihan Toney is one of the highest ranking Martial Artists in World Ju-Jitsu Federation and Kobudo Organisation in the world and is called upon to represent the elite International Shihan Kai at such events regularly.
