Judo is an exciting modern Olympic sport. It is almost unique in providing a wide range of benefits which include:- self-discipline, skill in co-ordination, an effective form of self- defence, a confidence booster for the shy and timid child, and self-control for the more aggressive spirit and a fantastic way to stay fit and healthy.
Cliff has a deep love of music that started at an early age. At 7 he learned the piano and quickly followed with the flute, violin & trumpet! He ventured into the RAF Music Services at the age of 18 in 1977 serving in the RAF Germany Band, extensively touring Europe playing music. He became ‘hooked’ on producing music for every type of combination of instruments. Having been gifted with perfect pitch, the art of arranging came easy. He is currently the Head of Music at Brockhurst and Marlston House School, is an accomplished composer specialising in works for young choirs and plays with a number of Jazz Groups.
