Meet Kru Jim: A Master with Over 50 Years of Experience
About Kru Jim Richardson
My journey in martial arts began in 1973 with Judo, setting the foundation for a lifelong dedication to combat disciplines. From 1974 to 1989, he trained extensively in Karate, mastering both Shoto-kan and Sankukai styles, earning a Black Belt 1st Dan. His passion for martial arts led him to excel further, achieving a 3rd Dan in Kickboxing and a Blue Grade in Freestyle Filipino Martial Arts.
Kru Jim Richardson has had the privilege of training under some of the most respected and renowned Muay Thai and Muay Boran masters in the world. His dedication to preserving the authentic traditions of these martial arts is reflected in his training with legendary figures, including Phosawat Saengsawang, Yodthon Senanan, Chinawut Sirisompan, Kriansak Sirisambhand, Amnat Pooksrisuk, Sken Kaewpadung, Sane Tubtimtong, Suphan Chabairam, Saner Jaritrum and Ronachai Soonkilanongkee.
Kru Jim has also gained invaluable insights from respected Western practitioners like Gary Gregory, Sandy Holt, Ronnie Green and Frank Bowen. These experiences have shaped his understanding of Muay Boran, and he now passes on this knowledge with the same dedication and passion that he received from his esteemed mentors.
