Antonio Martin...............

Last night the club heard of the recent passing of Karateka Antonio Martin.

Antonio was a genuine lovely young man who trained hard but was always polite and a very happy   person to be around.

In order to concentrate on his business commitments, Antonio left Blackpool and Wyre Karate Ryu several years ago to open his own successful restaurant in Bispham with the help of his father Pablo.

Pictured is Antonio with his father during his training years at Blackpool and Wyre Karate Ryu.

Poulton Karate Academy's thoughts are with Antonios family during this difficult time.
