Firstly, What got you into training mixed martial arts?

How long have you been training, and what’s your favourite thing about going to the classes and training?
I’ve been training for five & half years at Thai boxing And more recently started with the BJJ & mma. My favourite things about training are the friends that I’ve met and the laughs that we have in the gym, strong friendships are made in fighting environments.
What other hobbies have you got outside of MMA? What do you like to do outside of class?
