The author of the true stories 'From Bullied to Black Belt' and the sequal  'An Everyday Warrior' which tell of my horrendous childhood at the hands of bullies which turn into violent assaults as I became a man. Attempts were made on my life via a stabbing and I eventually succumbed to agoraphobia, panic attacks and alcohol abuse.                                                                      

It was something I never thought I would reciver from but I did after meeting Julie, a young girl who later became my wife. She has faith in me and urged me to seek out confidnece which I did form Karate. I started with the intention of training for a few months. 40 years later I am one of the UK's leading Fight Coaches, a 7th Dan Black Belt and three time Hall of Fame winner.                                                                                            

I have spoken on the BBC and been featured in the NY Post with my story being scipted into a feature film by a British screenwriter. My last big fear is to bring the story to the big screen. I still have days when I struggle though,but live by the words 'Where there is courage, there is hope.'
