After many years of dedicated training and coaching Ian Shearwood will teach his last class this Sunday 22nd March at Haden Hill.
Ian joined the Academy at the tender age of 7yrs. Training every week at the Glynne Primary school, then at the Lye Academy. It was established early on that Ian was gifted in his Martial Arts attaining 3rd Dan Black in Sankukai Karate and high levels in both Thai Boxing and Jeet Kune Do. Ian has been coaching for the past 12 years to a high standard. using his own unique style of coaching Ian soon became an asset to our club, receiving many compliments and respect from students and peers alike.
He will be sorely missed and we wish him all the best in his future with wife Nicola and family.
Best wishes
Rob and Lena
