Lead Instructor James

Like many, I found martial arts in my youth and it gave me the structure to develop self-discipline and confidence. I have now been competing for eleven years and teaching for four, with support from instructors with decades of experience. I have had the privilege of travelling across Europe to represent Team GB, building solid friendships along the way. Outside of Savate, I have trained in other systems and have worked in education since 2015.

As I continue my own progression, my adjacent mission is to bring more children into martial arts.
