Profile:
I started karate in 1982 at the age of six.
My first Dojo was Eynesbury Primary School.
I had three instructors, Sensei Balfor, Sensei Mc Nelly, and Sensei Coppen.
I can remember the very first time we went to the club. Mum and dad took us to have a look. Tom (Shepherd) joined in but I was a bit nervous so I stayed with mum and dad. However, it wasn’t long before I started to try a few moves, and that was that, I was hooked!
Twenty-two years ago when Sensei Shepherd and I started there were very few children in the club. But I was not deterred. I enjoyed the discipline and the etiquette that was expected of me. I trained hard and was proud to be a martial artist.
Outside of karate I live with my husband and my two young boys. I enjoy walking, swimming and toddler football.
I have also done much studying in the past, achieving my business studies degree in 1998.
