Jason owns 3 schools on in Califronia, run by his partner Randy Ward, and two in Texas, around the Houstan area, where he lives currently. He is training for MMA at the Silverback Gym in the Houstan area. Yes he still teaches at all his schools and still practices his martial arts.
@hazelenoch This was when foreign styles were more popular. Boxing and Wrestling don't seem like 'martial arts' in the sense they aren't from the east.
Worst Of all, fewer people knew what Pankration was.
I just realized something. Saban's bringing us Power Rangers Samurai in 2011, and judging from the trailer, there's gonna be a large focus on training in kendo, similar to it super sentai counterpart Shinkenger. Think maybe we'll see a Power Rangers Kendo Club video?
i also got into taekwondo cuz of power rangers to..i love it i got up to a red belt about 3yrs ago had to qiuit cuz of money and now im back into it about to test for my green belt..:)

@ofomatheblackbelt Heh, so did every other kid in the country back then. No surprise, since Power Rangers was the first kids' show to feature fight scenes with complex martial arts.
he introduces himself at the beginning as himself (JDF) but when he asks Alpha for help, Alpha calls him Tommy, likewise Zordon says TOMMY is gonan teach
I have the original VHS of this... there's an ad for Power Rangers food and some health warnings at the beginning, stuff on the set, and some PR clips.
@Cabelstudios sometimes actors, comedians etc talk their throat gets dry after a long time of talking so they have a glass of water or their favourite drink to keep that from happening.
JDF's "Tommy voice" is so cute! I don't know if he really sounded like that back in the day, but now...he can put on the voice but he doesn't really sound like that. His voice is much deeper. 'Course, he's older--voices deepen with age. He's still a cutie, though.

THIS WAS EPIC!!!!
Tommy has probably accomplished the most in over a decade.
he was the most popular power ranger.
He gained more popularity for his real fighting style.
He is in mma and i think undefeated.
He is the most famous ranger in history!
