Rick Young interview

When I first started with the concept of getting interviews for KombatClinic.com I had a wish list of people I wanted to interview.

KombatClinic.com seminar with Ray Stevens

The mission statement that accompanies any project undertaken through KombatClinic.com is simple: “committed to developing excellence in performance”. If we are committed to developing this excellence it must mean getting out there and training under [and alongside] the best, individuals that are deemed THE best in their respective fields. Over the years both through KombatClinic.com and indeed at my own academy I have sought out individuals, athletes, performers and coaches that are just that. The best.
From submission wrestling with Jeff Monson, MMA with Leigh Remedios and Michael Bisping, Brazilian Jiu …
