Meet Sensei Scott Witham

Scott has trained in a variety of martial arts since a young age ranging from Kung Fu to Tae Kwon Do. Five years ago he decided to take his training seriously and joined Can Do Martial Arts, there he was glad to find a club where he actually learned real skills and techniques necessary to fight and defend himself properly.

His confidence and ability grew and he was able to complete in several grappling competitions before entering the UK Amateur MMA League in 2008. He reached the final of that competition, narrowly missing out on the league title after drawing the match, subsequently losing out on overall league points.

He continues to train regularly at Can Do Martial Arts in both Jeet Kune Do and Karate as well as competing in combined martial arts. Recently Scott is proud to have achieved his Black Belt in Jeet Kune Do (2011).

He has also trained in gymnastics, swimming and is a keen weight lifter in his spare time.

Scott currently teaches our Children’s Combined Martial Arts class on Saturday mornings at 10am at the White Horse Leisure Centre in Abingdon.
