He is currently a fourth-degree black belt in the sport. In addition to earning two USA Judo National titles and a bronze medal at the Pan-American Judo Championships, he has a distinguished martial arts background that includes significant training in Japan, where he placed highly in his division's world rankings.
Jon Paul, who has a strong history in martial arts, played many different roles in making "Dojo," including casting director, writer, producer, and lead actor. Including genuine judokas from his dojo and the larger judo community in the cast, such as a national veterans champion and a Judo Olympian, gives the fight choreography in the movie a more realistic feel. "Dojo" stands out in the genre because of its authenticity and commitment to the martial arts discipline, which have struck a chord with viewers worldwide.
To further demonstrate his dedication to martial arts, fitness, and health, Jon Paul has started his own protein business, "Jon Paul Fit," in addition to his filmmaking pursuits.

Building on the short film's success, Jon Paul has finished writing a script for a feature film based on "Dojo" and is actively looking to secure funding and production from a big studio. To attract more attention and get "Dojo" into the Oscar race for the next year, preparations are also underway for a Guinness World Record premiere event at an AMC cinema in Miami, Florida.
Beyond merely demonstrating Jon Paul's skill as a director, "Dojo's" unprecedented success is a motivational narrative of conquering obstacles and pushing limits.
