One of the leading exponents of applied Karate, Iain has written several critically acclaimed books on the practical application of traditional martial arts. He is well known for his work on the pragmatic use of the techniques and concepts recorded in the traditional Kata. Iain’s seminars, books, DVDs and articles have proved very popular with those groups and individuals who wish to practise their arts as the pragmatic systems they were initially intended to be.

The 2024 TSKUK National Championships, held in Canvey Island, Essex, on 19th May 2024 was an outstanding event. With 160+ competitors from 7 clubs, the level of skill and sportsmanship was truly impressive.
