MERIDIAN EASTWOOD INSTRUCTOR
SIFU SAM CARPENTER
My Martial Arts journey began, over 20 years ago, in 2001. I joined Meridian Kung Fu at the age of 4, when my only experience of martial arts was watching Sifu Steve and Sifu Sata training and teaching at MKF HQ. I have been brought up in and around the school so Meridian is like a second home to me.
Throughout my childhood I saw and was involved in the progression of Meridian (You may recognise me in the pictures/videos from age 4 up until now). To see what it has become today is incredible and even more amazing that I get to continually train alongside such experts in this field as well as instruct for HQ, but also in my own branches now held in Leigh-On-Sea & Eastwood.
I joined the Junior MKF Coaching Team from the age of 11 learning continually until I reached 19 years old, where I got the opportunity to run my own branch in Leigh-On-Sea. 4 years later and I now run 12 classes in the SS9 Postcode each week, as well as running all Kids Elite Training Groups (Weapons Training) and regular classes at our main HQ for Kids; overall teaching around 500 kids every week!)
My goal is to pass as much knowledge and wisdom to the youth of today, I find I can understand and get across exactly what & how the children need to learn because I have been through everything they will go through, as I have been in their position before.
Through Wing Chun, not only have I learnt to become confident in my personal abilities in the art, but I also learn to challenge myself every day to improve in all aspects of life. Furthermore, I have found that the principles I have learnt have carried over into some of the most difficult, and also the best parts of life. I am a keen student in Wing Chun Kung Fu alongside personal development. My passion for the art and personal growth becomes stronger as I get older!
SIFU JACK BLOXHAM (CLASS INSTRUCTOR)
I began my Wing Chun journey in 2010 in our headquarters junior class. I started Wing Chun because I had low self-confidence and no drive to better myself, but under the expert instruction of Master Sata Chand, I was able to gain self-confidence, become stronger both mentally and physically, and I was able to become a Class Instructor. I am extremely proud to be the Class Instructor of the Eastwood branch, to be able to pass my experience and knowledge to my students like my Sifu did for me. Wing Chun has also taught me about discipline, respect, patience, and focus. During my Wing Chun life I learn that the skills that I got taught during my classes aren’t only for the classes but can also be used in my school life, with my family and friends.
I was very fortunate to achieve my black sash in 2019, I also completed my Instructor’s
course with Meridian HQ. Seeing and hearing the achievements of my students that I have
taught and how they are progressing through their lives is extremely pleasing. I will always
strive to bring the best out of every student through their Wing Chun journey.
