Sensei Graham Tomaszko 5th Dan Jujitsu and Kempo Jitsu
Graham Tomaszko has been studying martial arts for 40 years having practised Judo, Karate and Kung Fu before settling with Jujitsu over 25 years ago.
Graham attained his Black belt with the WJJF before moving to Jikishin and then Shu-ho jujitsu. Following an injury to his shoulder he soon realised that the majority of Jujitsu styles tend to follow the senior instructor's style, fitting his or her physical make up and personal likes and dislikes, not always catering for an individual students or any limitations they may have.
Having spent some time looking and experiencing different organisations, Graham joined and is now Chairman of the Independent Unarmed Combat Association that is registered with NAKMAS and allows for individuals to develop their full potential.
Graham was voted Male Community Coach of the year for 2007/8 by Wear Valley District Council and Durham County Council.
