Hi everyone! My name is Vasilis from Cyprus. I have been a fan of the YouTube channel from the beginning because we all know the martial arts world doesn't have enough open-minded practitioners seeing the positive sides of every style. I also went through RAID 1 when it came out. Great content overall Ilan, keep it up! My martial arts background is Wing Chun (7 years), FCS Kali which combines FMA with Silat (5 years), Chen Taiji (4 years), reached senior level in all, where I was assisting my teachers. Moreover, I trained in BJJ (blue belt), MMA and Wrestling (3 years), Muay Thai (2 years) and trained for a while in Krav Maga and Wushu. Lastly, since last year I joined a Koei Kan Karate dojo, an offshoot style of Skotokan, to learn a traditional Okinawan style I always wanted to, with its rituals and philosophical underpinnings.

Hi Folks, I'm excited to be here and learn some new things from Ilan. I've trained in arnis and bagua for the most part. I'm trying out Iaido now and looking to expand into jujutsu and jo in the near future.

Hey everyone! Super excited to be here. I've been involved in martial arts since I was 13 years old. I started learning martial arts through my local community activities program. When my instructor relocated, I took over the program at 17. In college, I taught martial arts at my university's recreation center. I am currently in my 16th year as a high school history teacher, where I also teach a free martial arts program for high school students. I've been studying the RAID videos for over a year and have really enjoyed applying the principles in our martial arts club. My youtube channel. Just for fun. The Modern Day Martial Artist - YouTube

Hello everyone, I'm very interested in the RAID system and I'm excited to see what Ilan builds here.

I started out as a Chuck Norris watcher and backyard stick breaker in the early 80's. Then Shotokan Karate as a teenager. I later when all in on Wing Chun. I have since been just doing a little of this and that. Sort of "making my own style", practicing whatever I find interesting at the time. I am currently interested in Ba Gua and Pigua
