Hes an actor and expert Martial artist who's appeared in numerous action and drama/comedy films. Hes another one of my idols because of his physique and ability in marital arts. Hes my inspiration when it comes to bodybuilding becuase this man has a flawless body. Michael Jai White is a legitimate holder of seven black belts of varying degrees in seven different Martial Arts forms. Beginning his Martial Arts training at the age of eight and achieving his first black belt at the age of twelve, he now has over twenty years of experience. Originally a student of the legendary Shigeru Oyama , ( at the time Shigeru Oyama was the world renowned head of the U.S. Kyokushin Karate Association) he is now the head of World Oyama Karate. White went on to achieve black belt in six other karate styles; Shotokan, ITF Tae Kwon Do, WTF Tae Kwon Do, Kobudo, Goju Ryu and Tang Soo Do. He has also had years of Wu-Shu Kung Fu training under current American Wu-Shu team coach, Eric Chen.
White has trained privately with the likes of Bill" Superfoot" Wallace, Benny " The Jet" Urquidez, Shihan Bobby Lowe, Shokei Matsui, Jean Claude Van Damme, James Lew, Don " the Dragon " Wilson, Peter Cunningham, Billy Blanks, Gene Label and Joe Lewis.
