On the 15th August 2026, I had the privilege to help celebrate my first karate instructor’s 80th Birthday with him and his family.
It was great to see the guys from my first dojo, Martin, Wilf and my good friend Kevin Clarke.
It was nice to spend some quality time reminiscing and talking about what they are doing now, as it has been nearly 2 decades since I have seen them. We intend not to leave it another 20 years before catching up again and are looking at an annual get together.
Sensei Fellowes is a true karate-ka and gentleman, who is one of a very few people that have impacted my life.
