Mr Bateman started martial arts at the age of 12. He began training WT Taekwondo in Doncaster with Mst Gary Sykes (GB Olympic Team Coach) where he enjoyed many years of competition sparring. In 2014 he relocated to the North Yorkshire coast which saw him switch from WT Taekwondo to the more traditional ITF Taekwon-Do with NEST-TKD in Redcar. In 2017 he was successfully promoted to 1st Degree Black Belt in front of the UKTA Grandmasters grading panel. On April 11th 2021 he was awarded 2nd Degree after attending a very special weekend long National Black Belt Seminar to mark the 66th Anniversary of the naming of Taekwon-Do. Mr Bateman still competes at a national level and trains regularly with ITF England national squads. |
