Hi guys this is my first post. I have been training in the martial arts for around 20 plus years now and had run my own clubs in and around the London area. I have trained in various martial art styles which includes Kung fu ( Southern praying mantis ) Jujitsu, Aikido, and of course TKD. I started in the United Kingdom Tae Kwon Do association and got my black belt in this. My next move was to Nichols Tae Kwon Do academy where we went on to learn the new kick patterns that Trevor had devised. Yet again I went on to train hard and finally took and attained my black belt status. When I finally moved to Spalding I went looking for a good club to join and after a very nice demonstration I decided to join with Tony Temple and Kickers TKD, because this is yet again a different association I had to start at the bottom again ( lol ) and work my way up the ladder. I find kickers TKD a very interesting club as the instructor ( Antony Temple ) likes to not only practice traditional TKD but mix in different techniques from other styles to.
