Sensei Daniel Read - assistant instructor
With the pressure of being a full time student studying his 'A' levels he is always keen to set a good example to his fellow students and always attends karate training sessions every week without fail. Many of his fellow students look up to him and he is always there giving them support when needed.
Although only young himself he has an excellent track record, he has won many national and international titles and is always ready to compete at every event Dudley Shukokai Karate Club attends.
Sensei Daniel Read ( 2nd dan )  has been studying shukokai karate since the age of seven under the guidance of his mother Sensei Mandie Read.
Just watching him teach, train and compete you will soon realise that he is a future world champion in the making, with his lead by example attitude, what more could someone ask for in teaching the martial art of karate.
His aim is to attend university in 2007 to study sports science or physiotherapy and with the motto " there is no greater motivation than the pursuit of excellence" he stands every chance of achieving his personal goals in life.
