“I have been teaching Judo since 1985. I have taught with many different coaches whose various styles have profoundly influenced my own Judo, and given me a varied and wide grounding for my own style.
I believe that regardless of age or ability, all the participants of my classes will have the opportunity to achieve a higher level of learning, co-ordination and skill, but that first and foremost all will learn through fun and enjoyment. thus improving self discipline, confidence and personal skills.”

“I started judo in my local youth club in 1979 at the age of fifteen after having played rugby. I instantly became fascinated by the sport and it’s ethos due to the passion, charisma and enthusiasm of my coach Willie Shields who recently stopped coaching at the age of 83. My fascination was further developed at Glasgow University under Head Coach George McQuillan.
My aim is to inspire a new generation of judoka in the way that these two coaches inspired me and many others.”
