Meet the Team

'I started kickboxing and boxing in 1992. I won many titles throughout my 18 year fight career, including British, European and World Championships.

As an elite level coach, I have trained some of the world's top fighters at many International competitions. As a fully qualified and experienced Primary School teacher, I have always been committed to promoting the positive effect that martial arts has on a child's development. The classes taught at the Combat Sports Centre are a result of many years of research and experience.'

See for yourself!

I started boxing and kickboxing at the Combat Sports Centre when I was 10 years old. From the start I really enjoyed training and had worked my way up to black belt under the expert guidance of Paul Gilmore. Throughout this time i have achieved a 2nd Dan Black Belt and won the British Championships.

I started kickboxing and boxing at the Combat Sports Centre in 2009. I really enjoyed the training, competing and the social side that came with learning a martial art. After passing my black belt, I took my instructor qualifications so I could pass on the same experiences I had, to others.

I have been mentored by Paul Gilmore, the founder of IKA, all my career and I always try to maintain the high standards of teaching he expects. I’ve now moved my competitive career towards amateur boxing and one day look to try and compete for GB. So far I have won 2 Box Cups and represented the Midlands. In the long term, I hope pass my knowledge on to our other amateur boxers within the West Warwicks ABC boxing team.’

'I started training at the Combat Sports Centre when I was 9 years old. I’ve always loved competing! I have been fighting internationally since 2014-representing England and Ireland. So far I have won 4 World Championships plus many National competitions.

Current I am the A.F.S.O British full contact title holder. From this i have picked up many different training styles and methods that are passed on to our students at the CSC'

I have trained Mixed Martial Arts from age 17. I am a BJJ Brown belt. I have competed extensively throughout Europe on promotions including Cage Warriors, Akhmat, BAMMA amd ACB. Through a decade of experience, I’ve seen the massive progression in tactical, technical and physical training methods used in the sport.

I have always had a huge interest in improving the physical capabilities of combat sports athletes, and in recent years has also had a major focus on improving the health and longevity of combat sports athletes' careers.’
