Mark’s been living and breathing Kenpo for over 30 years.

His journey started back in 1990 on the island of Jersey, where he first discovered the power and energy of American Kenpo. He was instantly hooked.

In 2003, he earned his black belt under none other than Grandmaster Jeff Speakman, along with Mr Trevor Sherman and Mr James Rodriguez.

Fast forward to today, Mark is a 6th Degree Black Belt in Kenpo 5.0 and runs the JSK 5.0 school right here in Cambridge, supported by an awesome team of senior students—and he’s as passionate about teaching as he is about training.

Whether you’re a four-year-old learning your first stance or an adult throwing your first punch, Mark is the guy you want in your corner.

💥 Come meet him in person. Your first class is free.

You might’ve heard of “kata” in other martial arts. In Kenpo 5.0, we call them forms and sets.

These are choreographed sequences that help you master your basics, like stances, strikes, footwork, and transitions. They’re not just about looking good, they’re about building the foundation so everything else you do in training is clean, sharp, and effective.

They’re also how we assess progress. When you perform your forms and sets, instructors can spot your strengths and help you level up.

It’s where art meets science—and it’s a core part of becoming a better martial artist.

Glenda first stepped onto the mat looking to learn self-defence, and found a whole lot more.

Kenpo 5.0 stood out for its evolving techniques and real-world effectiveness, but over time, the people became just as important. Training partners turned into friends. Together they’ve traveled across New Zealand, Australia, and even the USA to compete, grow, and support one another as a team.

With her sights set on Black Belt, Glenda continues her own journey under the guidance of Mr. Robinson—someone she credits as a huge supporter in her progress so far.

Now, as part of the JSK 5.0 instructor team, Glenda works closely with our younger students. She’s right there at the beginning of their journey, helping them build confidence, skill, and discipline from day one.

“I want to pass on what I’ve learned—and help others enjoy this art as much as I do.”

Come train with Glenda and the rest of the crew. First class is free, and we’ll be with you every step of the way.

We get it, starting something new is hard. Especially when it feels like everyone else already knows what they’re doing.

But here’s the thing: every black belt in our dojo started as a white belt. Nobody walks in perfect. You just have to walk in.

We’re not here to judge. We’re here to support, teach, and help you grow. Our club is full of people who remember what it felt like to be the new one, and they’ll make you feel welcome from day one.

So if you’ve been thinking about it, this is your sign. Come try your first class for free.

If you grew up watching Kung Fu movies and dreaming about high kicks and fast hands—Dan gets you.

His martial arts journey kicked off in his teens, training in Kung Fu and earning his 2nd degree black sash in Siu Lum Gar by the early ’90s. Over the years, he’s trained in Sikaran Arnis, kickboxing, Muay Thai, Ninjutsu, Kempo Bushido Ryu—you name it.

But it wasn’t until he found Jeff Speakman’s Kenpo 5.0 that he felt he’d found a system worth committing to long-term.

In 2018, Dan earned his 1st Degree Black Belt in Las Vegas, under the very system he now helps teach here in Cambridge. What drew him to Kenpo 5.0? Its power, practicality, and the way it evolves. As Dan says, “It really is the science of street fighting.”

What he loves most about Kenpo 5.0 is how it balances tradition with growth. It's a live, evolving art that adapts while still holding onto the discipline, values, and potential that martial arts can unlock in all of us.

Come train with Dan and the rest of our team. First class is free—and there’s no better time to start.
