OSTMA instructors

Sensei Izzy is a 2nd Dan Karate instructor and has been involved in martial arts for over 17 years. She started training with Sensei Tom Woodham-Davies at the age of 4 years, as a very shy and nervous child. Martial arts helped her grow in confidence and self belief. She gained her black belt at the age of 15 and has continued to develop and progress with her karate journey. Some of the people Sensei Izzy has trained with include Luca Costa, Quentin Mahauden, Jordan Thomas and Wayne Otto. 

 

Sensei Izzy quickly fell in love with karate and in particular competing. Within her time competing, she has been English National champion, Belgian Open champion and has won numerous other medals at international competitions. At 18, she was selected for the England Karate Squad. Since then, she has gone on to compete for England in the World and European Championships. 

 

Alongside karate, Sensei Izzy is qualified as a level 2 fitness instructor and level 3 personal trainer. She loves being able to help individuals achieve their goals and see the confidence, in who they are as a person, grow.
