Instructors

Zi Shiying Tang Soo Do prides itself on the quality of its instructing. Craig Moat The Chief Instructor has a NVQ LEVEL 3 certificate in Self defence instruction, he also spends a number of hours a week at work teaching at a Safety Training Company. All the other instructors have been internally verified by Craig and each instructor has a Verification of Competence (VOC) pack which identifies their training matrix. The instructors work closely together to share knowledge and keep each other abreast of changes in legislation etc..

All instructors are fully CRB checked and have signed onto the NAKMAS ‘Safe Kids Campaign’. We also have Joe Zielinski who works as a fulltime Teaching Assistant and is our Child Protection Officer (CPO) and he ensures all information is promulgated to all instructors.

All instructors operate on a system where we listen first to students both young and old and we engage with all parents and guardians so that they are full au fait with their child’s progression. This we believe has paid dividends. In addition to the above we hold a Parents & Guardians committee every quarter in order to keep all members in the club up to date but more importantly to ensure information flows both ways.
