Mr Davies, who assists Mr Parker at the Penlan Club, began his martial arts training aged 14 with the art of Judo, taking his Black Belt at 19.  As a Judo instructor for 10 years, he taught self defence to women for three years for police basic training.  Mr Davies has also trained in Lau Gar Kung Fu reaching Junior Black Sash and this included training with weapons.  It was during this time that Mr Davies joined the WCKA under Master Brown reaching Blue Belt standard but due to family commitments gave up for ten years only to return just as eager but much older and wiser.  Andy took his Black Belt in October 2005.  His daughter, Danielle, also trains at the club.
