Richard Jones

Richard has over 16 years experience in the martial arts, and holds a 4th degree blackbelt in escrima (Filipino stick, sword and knife fighting) as well as 1st kyu grades in Jujitsu and Shotokan Karate.

It’s through his abilities to not only perform but teach these skills that lead to him working as a stunt person and fight choreographer, these experiences were the driving force behind creating Saber Skills.

“I remember watching martial arts films as a kid thinking I want to be able to do that, and who doesn’t want to be a Jedi Knight or Sith Lord.”

“Although stage fighting is about keeping each other safe, and real fighting is the exact opposite, they both require a similar skill set and understanding.”

“I want Saber Skills to be a place where you can learn to be like your favourite hero, or to take you back to when you first saw a lightsaber, and how much you wanted to be able to use one, and now you can”

Richard is also a fully insured instructor and DBS checked.
