About this user

At 38, Neil has been training in martial arts for 27 years. His passion and commitment to training lead to the foundation of the UK Kung Fu School.

Neil started training in Judo when he was eleven and began teaching when he was eighteen. Running parallel to this, Neil also studied Chang Chuan Shu (long fist art), a kung fu style with Chris. Ellerker (then chairman for the BCCMA). Neil has also trained in Thai boxing, kickboxing, Tai Chi, Hsing-I, Ba Gua, Jeet Kune Do and Aikido.

He started training In the Kung Fu Style of Teh Ji Han Jeung Dao when he was twenty-one with Chris. Linstead (Instructor and founder of the style) and began formally teaching the style to children in 1993. Neil has over twenty five years experience training in the martial arts and sixteen years experience teaching.

In 1997, Neil attained the grade of senior student from founder of Teh Ji Han Jeung Dao, Chris. Linstead. Following this, he founded the UK Kung Fu School and continued to develop both the school and his own skills in martial arts.

Classes grew from there and he is now a full-time martial arts instructor teaching three children's classes, five adult mixed classes, private tuition as well as corporate self-defence courses and team building for companies.(For more information regarding corporate course please visit www.excel21.com)

He has gained extensive knowledge by travelling through out the world practicing and researching martial arts and self defence concepts and applications. His travels have taken him to China, Taiwan, India, Hong Kong, Thailand, Europe and America. Neil has both worked and trained in India and America. In 2004, Neil took 11 of his students to China to experience training at the Shaolin Temples.

In parallel to this, Neil also studies and teaches internal martial arts specifically directed to health, vitality and fitness. This also includes the study of Chinese medicine, acupunture and Shiatsu massage, a form of oriental healing and well being. He has been involved in the study and practice of shiatsu since 1995 and is a registered member of the Shiatsu Society, the governing body for Shiatsu in the UK. Neil is also qualified to use acupunture techniques which he employs during the Shiatsu practice. Neil also teaches Tai Chi and welcomes new students in this area.

He believes there is a natural progression with martial arts which leads to a greater understanding of the human body. He therefore combines the understanding of Shiatsu, acupunture and Kung fu which blends to a sensitive mixture of effective martial and healing techniques.
