At KSOMA Martial Arts in Peterborough, we have been blessed over the years with some extraordinary students. These students make every second of my 47 years on the mat worthwhile. One such student 'Alex' wrote this now that its gap year and travelling time after giving us some 13 years of their life. It was a pleasure to teach you Alex
"I just wanted to say thank you so much for the past 13 years. You are both incredible teachers, not only of jiu jitsu, but also of the type of person I want to be. Because of you I can hold my head high with the confidence I gained in your dojo. I have made a couple life-long friends through you, and I know that whatever life throws at me, I can handle it. I'm sad my journey ends here, but I know l'll never forget the invaluable lessons you've taught me . - Love , Alex"
You, your family and your friends can feel like this too -pop over to https://ksoma.co.uk and see what we have to offer and share it everywhere you can.

Warning long post - My journey in martial arts has been long, but is by no means over and I have enjoyed every step so far. It all started 47 years ago and thus far I have achieved 8th Dan in Kempo Jujitsu and 4th Degree in Dacayana Eskrima, there are more but these are the ones that matter to me. I have had the amazing fortune to be graded by some amazing people over the years, all of who I consider to be among the very best there are, amd for whom I will always give the greatest respect and friendship although some have sadly passed. Some of the people of note include GM Bob Rose, SGM Ed Parker, Terry Coughtrey Hanshi, Jo Biggs Hanshi, Joe Carslake Hanshi, Martin Carslake Hanshi, Malcolm Keith Sensei, Russell Stutely, Marcie Harding, GM Alberto Alicaway Dacayana Jr and British Martial Arts & Boxing Association - BMABA. I found myself with a moral dilema, I am redesigning our club website, with the idea od engaging more students and part of this is how do I present myself. The most popular clubs all seem to refer to their senior instructor as Master, my question to myself was should I do this? 10 years ago I was awarded the title of Shihan by Joe Carslake Hanshi and Shihan loosley translates as 'Master Instructor' so why not use the English 'Master' so I though I would give it a try - Here is the strange thing, I COULD NOT TYPE IT! So I started to analyse this and came to several conclusions. 'Master implies that I know everything I have been taught and everything all those in the list above know. Slightly implausible and also in my mind indicates that my journey is over i.e The End. 'Shihan' to me says I have reached a way point on my journey, and that thankfully I have some way to go. So thank you and respect to you all, and despite my blindness, my training, teaching and journey in martial arts and life will continue and the end is nowhere in sight

When you teach Dacayana Eskrima and you are getting older and can't see, then you come to the realisation, that when you practice direct hitting, and blocking and holding with a preference to close the range and retaliate with the but of the stick, then you must also practice apologisong in equal quantities. Sorry Richard Jones

I am not making this up - Last week in subzero temperatures Wednesday evening, the council dutifully gritted our road. Thursday morning they sent in the road sweeper truck - Go figure,
Here at KSOMA we don't waste time or resources, we just teach martial arts. Come along and enjoy efficiency and learning

I sincerely hope that the two online chats to the same company I have had today were with an a.i chat bot. Because if I can so easily find 2 successive real humans who have completely renounced all bounds of common sense and so completely embraced total stupidity, then I am sorry, as a species, we should all just give up. The future is bleak
