Leigh Thomas -  2nd Dan

 I’ve been training in Goshinkwai for the last 15 years, as well as previously training in Judo and Karate in my youth.  I had a long break before starting back in martial arts, but was instantly hooked with this style.  The skills taught are realistic, no nonsense self defence tactics/techniques and you soon get to grips with them.  The class is always a friendly environment and instructors are always happy to help.

I teach and train at Risca on Tuesdays and Cwmbran on Saturdays.  I have also recently taken on teaching the junior class which is held at the St John Ambulance hall, Risca, Tuesdays 5pm - 6pm.  Both my daughters Sian (10) and Tabetha (6) train and can’t get enough training!
