The latest Shidokan GB Shodan is Simon Margot at 21 years of age.

He has just returned from five weeks at Honbu Dojo where he went immediately after completing a degree in physiotherapy.

Whilst in Japan he fought in two tournaments; one a Kickboxing tournament which was declared a draw and the other where bare knuckle knock down rules applied. (We will shortly be posting on the website a translation of these new fighting rules).

Simon has been training under Shihan Burnel for six years and has fought in numerous tournaments including the BKK Open at Crystal Palace and Nice Open.
