My dad introduced me to training/physical culture and the martial arts before I hit my teens (Eugene Sandow; Masutatsu Oyama [Kyokushinkai Karate] and Bruce Lee). It was my love of the martial arts and combat sports that got me into boxing and I have coached amateur boxers at all levels, including club, divisional, national and international. I have coached boxing in the United States, England and Wales and presently coach at Long Lane Amateur Boxing Club in Liverpool, where I have assisted in the development of a number of national champions

In addition to boxing, my Sports Science degree has enabled me to work successfully with performers from a number of sports including American football, basketball, tennis and MMA. My connections with boxing put me in touch with the UKKA’s estimable Mr. Mike Lawson (nice story on this elsewhere on the site) and my interest in kettlebells hit a new level of enthusiasm. They are such a versatile tool that they have become a staple of our training and are very popular amongst our performers who are experiencing new levels of power and fitness.

My dedication to personal and professional development has resulted in me being a founder-member of the Federation of Amateur Boxing Coaches (a coach education forum by and for coaches), who’s members recently had the good fortune to benefit from the knowledge, humour, wisdom and experience of warriors Pike, Beauchamp and Lawson.
