Jindřich Čmugr
He has been practicing martial arts since he was 15 years old. He first spent 22 years intensively practicing Shotokan karate, then switched to Muay Thai and kickboxing, which he practiced for another 13 years. In February 2020, he attended his first Pekiti Tirsia Kali seminar focused on knife fighting, which excited him so much that he has been training regularly ever since, attending seminars and private lessons under the guidance of Aleš Brunner, the head coach for the Czech Republic. In 2022, he founded his own Pekiti Tirsia club, Armadong Kali, in Ústí nad Labem, which is growing very successfully and is beginning to create a new generation of fighters.
