Giles Critchley – 3rd Dan

I started karate at the Cambridge University Karate Club in 1984 and have trained at a number of dojos around the country including the Salford Academy where I gained my 2nd dan black belt in 1995.

I was very pleased, 18 years and three children later, to have gained my 3^rd dan whilst training at IchiBan Karate Club.

My three children have all trained at IchiBan as well. Whilst I no longer compete, I have provided medical cover at national and international competitions for the KUGB. My biggest achievement in Karate is the fact I am still training and as I get older I enjoy karate more and more.
