‘I have always been a firm believer in the opportunities and positive social circle that Judo offers as a unified Olympic sport. Jujitsu is an extremely versatile form of self-defence which is why it’s ideal for tailoring lesson plans to be suitable for schools and anti-bullying programs. Many children I have taught in a school environment now attend evening classes benefiting from all the associated activities and values.’
