Master Wayne Beadell (5th Dan), has been teaching Karate in Crawley for the last 17 years and now along with his partner Sensei Sue Firman (3rd Dan), runs one of England’s most exciting and successful Martial Arts Schools.

Both Sue and Wayne have represented their country at the highest level with Sensei Sue winning the 1996 World Championship in Canada and Sensei Wayne coming third in Argentina in 1994, taking team sliver in Canada, bronze in both Venice and Germany and winning the home international in Ireland.

Now that they have both finished their International duties, their mission is to have the best Karate school in the south of England.

"We at Crawley Blackbelt Academy believe that Martial Arts are for all. For that reason we cater for all ages and start from Lil’ Dragons for 4-6 year olds, through Karate kids for 6-14 year olds and on to Karate/Kickboxing and cardio classes for adults"
