John first became involved in Goju Ryu after bringing his son to the Junior class. Previously to Goju Ryu, John had trained in Judo and Kick Boxing. Having joined at 44 years of age John felt the club had a good balance of ages and this has helped keep him training over the years since. John is still enjoying his Karate especially the fitness, strength and coordination it has given him. John says "You have to use it or lose it you know!".
