Looks really nice! Exactly the same as here in the States.

For fun, here's my kung fu school - this is my "gym"...

Yeah I study and teach Kajukenbo, which is an eclectic martial art that was created in Hawaii in the late 1940s. Basically a handful of black belts in other styles were living in a really dangerous part of Honolulu just after the second world war, and decided to come together and build a new fighting system that took the best of what each of them knew. So it's a mix of karate, kung fu, ju jitsu, judo, and kempo. One of the original "mixed martial arts" (though it has basically nothing in common with what you see on TV - it's self defense, not a sport).
