My Martial Arts Journey:

Martial arts have been a vital part of my life for many years, shaping not only my physical abilities but also my mindset and approach to challenges. I began my journey with various traditional disciplines—Tae Kwon Do, Thai Boxing, and Wing Chun—each contributing unique techniques and philosophies. These experiences provided me with a diverse skill set and a strong foundation in martial arts.

However, I recognised the need for a more practical and effective self-defence system. This led me to Krav Maga, a martial art specifically designed for real-world situations. Its emphasis on instinctive movements and practical techniques resonated with me and aligned perfectly with my goals.

Training with my older brother, Mark Elliott, who is a former British middleweight Kickboxing Champion, was a significant influence on my development. His experience and insights helped deepen my understanding of striking and defence further enhancing my martial arts skills.

Under the guidance of Master Alex Paris from the World Krav Maga Association, I have honed my abilities and achieved the rank of Black Belt Level 2 Instructor. Master Paris’s extensive knowledge and experience in Krav Maga have been invaluable, pushing me to refine my techniques and teaching methods.

My primary objective as an instructor is to equip others with the skills and confidence to defend themselves effectively in any situation. Krav Maga is not just about physical techniques; it’s about understanding the psychology of confrontation, developing situational awareness, and fostering a mindset of resilience and adaptability.

I am passionate about creating a supportive and empowering environment for my students, where they can learn and grow at their own pace. Whether you are a beginner or have prior experience, my classes are designed to help you build practical self-defence skills, improve your physical fitness, and increase your confidence.

Join me on this journey of self-discovery and empowerment through Krav Maga. Together, we can develop the skills necessary to navigate the challenges of life and ensure your safety in any situation.
