About the Business

I'm Simon Budden, the Senior Instructor for the Association and I'm currently graded at 6th Dan Karate, 5th Dan in Goju Ryu Karate and 4th Dan in Shotokan Karate. My martial arts experience dates back to 1968 when I started boxing with my grandfather Bill Clarke who was a boxing coach, before taking up Judo in 1970, where I obtained brown belt was silver medallist at the 1974 BJA Southern Area Championships and trained with the BJA Junior squad.

In late 1974 I took up Karate, first in Wado Ryu style for two years before settling in Shotokan where I gained my 4th Dan. In 2002 I changed to Okinawan Goju Ryu Karate under the banner of IOGKF and gained my 5th Dan under Sensei Morio Higaonna 10th Dan in July 2006. In March of 2013 I formed Shiki Karate Do Kai. In June 2013 I graded to 6th Dan Karate under Peter Consterdine 9th Dan BCA/BCKA.
