Paul Newman is one of the leading "new breed" of traditionalists who fully understands how the art of karate should be realistically applied in the modern world. His physical abilities, his knowledge and his teaching style are all very impressive. His good humour and approachable nature also contribute to him being a popular instructor.

I highly recommend Paul to anyone looking to advance their study of karate. There are very few who are able to teach as Paul teaches. Be sure to check him out!

Paul Newman is one of the strongest members of my master class instructor’s course held in Coventry England. A powerful hitter and a dedicated trainer, I highly recommend his teaching to anyone looking for good self defence
