Dave Lee

A keen martial artist until his accident at the age of 35 He enrolled on a Hypnotherapy course which he passed with flying colours. Focused on breaking down the barrier of discrimination for himself and other disabled people he continued to seek an instructor that would agree to teach him.
	After more than six years of searching, Dave met Mary Sellen a 5 th Dan Master in Taekwon-do. After training with Mary for 5 months, he has achieved his blue belt in Taekwon-do. That would normally take an able-bodied person two years of hard training. Using creative and technical thinking Mary has developed a Kata syllabus where hand movements can represent kicks. Dave and others like him can benefit for years to come.
Dave has dreams not just to achieve his Black Belt, although that would be enough for most people. He wants to encourage people with disabilities to take control of their life through martial arts and has setup a Disabled Martial Arts Association.
