"I believe in Movement & Variety. Our bodies have evolved over tens of thousands of years to be supremely good at doing millions of complex actions. Our bodies are designed for movement and variety. We can travel on land and water. We can thrive in soaking jungles, roasting deserts and freezing tundra. We can create structures as huge as the Great Pyramids, as intricate and delicate as clockwork pocket watches and as complex as moon rockets! No wonder that these days when most of us spend our entire lives sitting motionless in offices and cars, our bodies are falling apart. Inactivity is just a bad habit we have. A bad habit we all should, and can break out of. I broke out of it, using Movement & Variety. And if I can do it, anyone can!"

Started learning Shotokan Karate when 7 years old.- By age of 12 was regularly planning and teaching Karate at the childrens class.
- Gaining more and more coaching experience throughout teenage years, and by age of 16 was taking training sessions at both kids and adults classes every week.
- Students were both male and female and ranged from 5 year olds to those in late 70’s (hello Brian & Vera if you’re out there!)
- Class sizes ranged from individuals to 64 on one occasion!
- After gaining university degree, started my own shotokan karate club (Clwb Heb Enw – The Club With No Name) and coached school kids, whole families, policemen, university heads of depts. etc
- Students ranged widely in abilities, including those with missing limbs, learning disabilities, heart conditions, chronic arthritis, and those who can only be described as being incredibly fit and healthy.
- In 2006 moved to North Yorkshire and qualified as a Gym Instructor and GP Referral Instructor (GP's can refer their patients to me to help them recover from, or control, their medical conditions).
- I currently work at Craven Swimming pool & Fitness Centre as Gym Instructor and GP Referral Instructor.
- I currently train at Burnley Shotokan Karate Club
- I currently work with individuals and groups to improve their general and specific health and fitness goals.
