Anyone who follows me on twitter will no doubt be fed up hearing about my daily gym chat. Yes, I am addicted, I do have a problem :P. One of my main classes I attend is Body Combat. A couple of months ago I wrote a blog post about this latest addiction, Discovering Les Mills - Body Combat. Within this post I mentioned the program directors Dan and Rachael Cohen along with an instructor who posts his own videos on youtube Tommy Damani.
Tommy is the reason I write this. For anyone who hasn’t heard of Tommy here is a short bio:
One of Sydney's leading combat instructors. Moved to Melbourne quite some time ago now and i teach here. I am what i am cos i give my class all that i have.
On the 6th of this month Tommy posted a video on his youtube channel that sent a chill to all this subscribers.

One user commented :
Your stuff is awesome. And then I watched the knee video. What terrible news. I hope everyone's positive vibes will bring the best result. Instructors / performers like you are so rare. All the best xxxxx – FitFrog
This news is very saddening. As you can tell from his videos he’s very passionate about what he does and this injury obviously sets him back in many aspects of his life. Tommy has setup a website that will make it easier for subscribers to engage him aswell as post updates.

On his site he has a donate page where anyone can help towards his surgery costs ($5000). Am sure if all the people who have watched his videos/subscribed donated even $1 then the target would be reached very quickly. I know I’ll be donating, so why don’t you?
