With the Black Python Movie as his reference, Jamuga is jumping on this lifetime opportunity tour to educate himself on how action films and actors collaborate in successfully shooting movies and writing good film scripts for international blockbusters. He’ll be in training with some of India's top martial arts action film actors in Mumbai, the epicentre of the Hindi film industry, affectionately known as Bollywood.

Master Jamuga Stone of Stones Academy says this is the main agenda behind his many community based programs.

The programs have the main aim to encourage women to learn the life skills of self-defense.

Master Stone highlighted the recent girls’ empowerment program in schools in the nation’s capital as being one such concept that targets this agenda.

Stone outlined that the program focuses on the martial arts philosophy of a more street smart approach, and one that can be applied for females when they fall into vulnerable situations.

They are: “Stay Strong – Kick Drugs out of PNG”, “Stop Violence against Women” and “Stop Bullying in Communities”.

Master Jamuga Stone will be facilitating for these projects using martial arts as the driving force to address these national social issues.

Stone says the aim is to promote these national issues and appealed to interested individuals to sign up for the classes.

The taekwondo and martial art programs will include topics focused on:

Waigani Taekwondo franchise club will be established at the Sir John Guise Indoor Stadium on 21st February 2018.
