Congratulations to Modbury Sensei Sebastian Nazar and his wife Natasha who are expecting their first child. They are both very excited at the news and look forward to the next generation member of Team Jungle.  The news has slightly lessened the pain of the broken hand Seb suffered in his Team event in Japan. His Japanese opponent has reportedly hatched the egg that Seb left on his forehead.
