This is Sensei James, our primary instructor!

James Sim

Black belt I Shodan

Years Training: 10

Favourite throw: Kata guruma

He started Jitsu during his first year at Coventry University and has been training ever since, eventually himself becoming Coventry's main instructor!
He now teaches us at Warwick, and his favourite memory so far from Jitsu has been grading to his black belt in 2023.

This is Sensei Keith, our second instructor!

Keith Newman

Black belt I Shodan

Years Training: 23

Sensei Keith started Jitsu as a first-year student at Brunel University after hearing about his flatmates trying it out for freshers. He remembers admiring the orange belts doing their break-falling, and thinking how pleased he would be if he could ever break-fall that well! 23 years later, he's still going strong, and he's grateful that he's far exceeded his own expectations.
He has been teaching ever since earning his 1st Kyu in 2016, and he finds watching his students progress just as rewarding, if not more, than his own.
