Jon brings decades of traditional martial arts experience to EPiC and is a familiar, trusted figure within the Bradley Stoke community. A dedicated father whose children also train with the club, Jon leads by example, embodying discipline, respect and lifelong learning.

Growing up in the Bruce Lee era, Jon was inspired to pursue martial arts from a young age and even became skilled in the art of nunchucks. Over the years, he has trained in Taekwondo, Judo, Aikido, Tai Chi and Ninjitsu, building a deep understanding of multiple styles and philosophies.

His core disciplines are Karate and Ju-Jitsu, both of which he has taught, and he has competed nationally in Ju-Jitsu. Jon is a 3rd Dan Black Belt in Shotokan Karate, reflecting his commitment, technical knowledge and long-standing dedication to the arts.

Jon primarily assists at our Bradley Stoke Centre of Excellence, where he supports classes across the martial arts programme. His calm presence, strong fundamentals and genuine care for the students make him a highly valued member of the EPiC coaching team.
