ABOUT FORDY...

Coaching Diamuid for his K1 win  As well as winning English BJJ and British BJJ titles,   among several other notable awards, Fordy started   training Muay Thai back in 2005, initially to lose weight   and have some fun, both were   achieved, in a big way!   Within around a year of training   and several stone   lighter, he soon started traveling to various interclubs     and competitions across the country, with great   success, racking up the fights, as well as balancing a   demanding, full-time job.

Continuing to compete in BJJ in the UK and Europe (at the ripe old age of 43), he also competes from time to time in Triathlon, Cycling and Running races, as well as being a keen climber and Yoga freak!
As is the Iceni ethos, Fordy wants nothing more than to build a strong community of fighters, fitness fanatics and like-minded individuals that can rely on each other to take themselves and motivate their fellow members to move to the next level.
