Nick began studying martial arts at the age of 12 as a student of Wado-Ryu Karate under Sensei Alwyn Anchors, 4th Dan. As a teenager his studies not only moulded his ability to defend himself but also taught him fundamental lessons in discipline, control and self-motivation. As part of a three man team Nick took gold at the Under-16 SKW England Karate Championships three years in a row before graduating to the adult ranks. 
I first took up Karate at the age of 12 with Sensei Malcolm Dorfman (8th Dan), JKA Dojo in South Africa and reached the level of 1st Kyu by 1987. Regrettably due to the social distractions that came with school leaving - I took a long break from Karate and having returned back home to England in 1991 it took many years before I found a JKA affiliated Dojo and resumed formal Karate training early in 2003, by October that same year I re-graded my 1st Kyu and by May 2004 was very proud to pass my JKA Black Belt, 1st Dan with M Tanaka Sensei.
