Para judo champion starts worldwide teaching mentorship

Paralympic champion, Chris Hunt Skelley MBE, has announced the launch of his “Hunt Skelley Masterclass”, to judo, Brazilian jiujitsu and martial arts groups offering the opportunity for Chris to work inclusively with anyone who loves their sport.

The Hunt Skelley Masterclass offers groups the opportunity to work with Chris and, perhaps, to bring his Paralympic medals and lead a session on the techniques and moves that have been successful for him during his worldclass career as an elite athlete.

“I approach my sessions around making it inclusive for all as what might work for me, may not work for someone else. There is no ‘one-size fits all’ in judo or martial arts. For me, I may not have had the best techniques but I was determined, I was stubborn and I worked so hard and that won the day. For someone else their goals may be entirely different.

“Now it’s about imparting my love of this area of sport and sharing it with others, showing the benefits around fitness, team work, personal achievement and building confidence.”

These sessions are on offer for any group as Chris seeks to bring the under-represented sport of Para Judo into the limelight as it can open many doors for those with or without disabilities. These masterclasses will aid and inspire individuals and teams to break through barriers and achieve success.

“My judo is for me. We’re all individuals and what works for me, doesn’t necessarily work for another,” said Chris. “There is no pressure to do this technique in your own judo. I will be offering golden nuggets of information that will make your Judo, your Judo.”

Chris has already worked with many judo and martial arts groups across the country including, ‘Simply Judo’ in Northern Ireland, ‘Relentless Judo’ in London, and ‘The Ray Stephen’s Academy’ in Merton.

Chris commented: “The great thing about judo is you can adapt it to anyone. I can’t wait to see where this takes the sport.”
