Introduction I initially started training in martial arts in 1984 with Selby Shotokan Karate Club in North Yorkshire under Kodokai Karate federation (Shotokan Karate InternationalFederation). Sensei Sadashigo Kato who was the head of our organisation based in Cheshire. Since moving to the North East I have studied karate at Newton Aycliffe Karate Club and attained the grade of Yondan. This was a difficult transition as I had to learn all the Wado-ryu based kata, under the Anshin-ryu karate system whilst still keeping my Shotokan karate knowledge alive.
