Chief Instructor Paul Walsh Paul Walsh has been training and teaching in various clubs in Paul currently works full time for a homeless charity as he is very passionate about helping people. Paul is also a part time employee of Warwickshire County Councils Youth & Community Service and has successfully run two local youth clubs in Bedworth for the last 3 years.
His work for the local community has not gone un-noticed with Paul winning a GEM Award in March 2011 for all his good work. Unfortunately due to government cuts the youth clubs futures are looking grim which motivated Paul to set up Pitbull MMA so the young people still had somewhere safe to go to take part in positive empowering activities. Paul is Black Belt qualified in Kickboxing, Karate & Taekwondo and was awarded his Instructor qualification in 2006 after a lengthy training process. He has since completed his Level 1 coaching qualification, First Aid qualifications including Children & Infant training. He is fully trained in child protection and safeguarding.
