- Sport
Stephen began his martial arts training in his family’s adopted homeland, New Zealand. A martial tradition ran through the family, reaching back to the high Tang dynasty. His grandmother was a trained swordswoman who participated in the bloody warlord and brigands era of early 20th century China. Stephen’s first formal teacher was Karl Sargent, the winner of several championships in the Pacific and Asia.
Stephen has trained eight times in Okinawa and other parts of East Asia (Tokyo, Beijing, Hong Kong, Kaohsiung and Tainan in Taiwan) and been awarded senior grades and titles by Shian Toma (7 dan and Shihan), Seiki Toma (8 dan and Kyoshi), and Roy Hobbs (9 dan and Hanshi). He trained also with Kozo Mita in Tokyo as a guest in Sensei Mita’s house, Seikichi Odo in Okinawa, Boulahfa Mimoun and Kinei Nakasone in Salamanca, Spain, and many other masters around the world. With Wayne Otto as player/coach, he instructed the University of Kent karate club which became the UK’s most successful university club for 9 consecutive years.
