President

Alan 'Butch' White began training in 1962 in Shotokan.At this time he was also introduced to Judo, Aikido, Atemi Jutsu and Kendo.In the following years he trained in Wadoryu and in 1969 he took up Shukokai with Eddie Daniels. During his time with the Shukokai Karate Union he fought for SKU national team and then as a full international with the All Styles Great Britain Team. After seeing Sensei Nanbu's demonstration in 1975 at the All British Championships, Butch realised that Sankukai was the direction he wanted to take. The following year he and his dojos in Kidderminster and Wolverhamton joined the Association International Karate Sankukai under Chief Instructor for Britain Alan Hunt. With the break up of AIKS in the early 1980's The British Sankukai KarateAssociation was formed and Butch became its Chief Instructor. In recent years he has handed the day to day running of the association to others and is now BSKA President. Over the years Butch has been greatly involved in security and close protection work. He has 'minded' royalty and Hollywood film stars and has run corporate employee security and self awareness courses for large public companies.

John started training at the late age of 21 in 1974 under the instruction of Butch White to whom he feels he owes his whole career in martial arts. Butch laid the foundations for which our association was built and continues to support us. At this time he was training in Shukokai. After a year John had commitments and worked abroad in Germany for the following year.On returning John continued his training with Butch White training in Sankukai. It was decided the association needed to grow so John opened Clubs in Stourport, Cleobury Mortimer and Clows Top.
Along with Sankukai John trains in Nanbudo and teaches a variety of weapons including Escrima, Nunchaku, Tonfa,
