Biography
Six-year-old Jonathan and Oliver are known as the “Twinjas” due to their love of martial arts and identical twin antics. Their father Steven Ho is best known for his stunt work as “Donatello” in the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles films and is a regular guest on Conan O’Brien. With a Ninja Turtle as a father, it’s no surprise that these prodigies took an immediate liking to martial arts. Since they were old enough to walk they visited their dad on film sets and spent time with stuntmen and fighters at world-class levels. They began their formal training at age four, and now enjoy a diverse slate of martial arts in Los Angeles. Their consistent routine includes BJJ with coach Gavin Teragawa (purple belt under Cobrinha), boxing with Jose and Nacho Saucedo of Westside Boxing Club, wrestling with Mike Logan, and of course kicking and weapons with Dad. When they’re not training, they enjoy collecting Pokémon cards, cooking with mom, digging for worms, and shooting their own videos for Instagram.
