Hello
I started Shotokan Karate practice in 1972 with the Karate Union of Great Britain (“KUGB”), I was graded by Sensei Tomita and Sensei Enoeda. In 1980 I moved and joined Shotokan Karate international (“SKI”) which was run by Sensei Kanazawa. I was graded by Sensei Asano whilst training with the SKI. In 2006 I joined White Crane Kung Fu and was trained by Sensei Denis Ng. In 2010 I joined the Southern Shotokan Karate Association (“SSKA”). I have trained with Sensei Cole the Chief instructor ever since. I am one of the SSKA Senior Instructors at 4th Dan Level.
