Kevin trained in Shotokan Karate from the age of 16, but soon changed to Boxing to improve his self-defence skills. In 1993 he joined the B.J.J.A. (British Ju Jitsu Association), learning traditional Ju Jitsu and after 7 years at the club moved to Bedford JuJitsu. Here he gained experience in Judo and Aikido, along with the grappling arts. He was awarded his 1st Dan, and went on to become 'Black Belt of the Year' in 2002. In 2003 he graded for his 2nd Dan in Ireland, and was again awarded 'Black Belt of the Year' with the W.K.M.A.F. He is an honourable life member of the D.A.M.A.F International in Shin & Ken Goshin Jutsu Ireland. In 2005 was inducted into the EUSAIMAA Black Belt Hall Of Fame as Black Belt of the year.
In 2006 Kevin graded to 3rd Dan level. He now teaches in the USA and Ireland, runs clubs in Marston Moretaine and St Neots, and teaches women's Self Defence courses.
