James Turner
(Senior Instructor) Black Belt 2nd Dan
I started to learn kickboxing back in 2003 after doing the Wado-ryu style of Karate for many years . After completing my first Kickboxing class I realised that this was for me. I found myself kicking and punching pads and shields instead of thin air work that I was used to. I couldn’t get enough of it; I trained as many times as I could each week. I was soon approached by my Area Instructor to take part in the Instructors Course, I jumped at the chance. It added a whole new dimension to my training. Now several years down the line I am still very passionate about the sport, I take great pride in passing on the skills and techniques I have been shown on to my students and watch them grow in to stronger, fitter and more confident people.
