Steve Hollister is a 6th Dan Shotokan Karate Black Belt and has been practicing Karate for over 40 years. He has extensive high level international competition experience, winning WKA World and European Championships in 2011 and 2013 to name a few.

Steve also has many years of coaching experience in Karate and was Voted the Plymouth Herald’s ‘Coach of the Year in 2011. In 2023, he is the head striking coach here at Flo Martial In Plymouth.

Following a tragic loss to his family in 2010, he found Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and is now a Brown belt under Kenny Baker. Despite having a hip replacement in early 2023, he was back rolling just 7 weeks after this huge operation and still remains to be a pain in the ass for most people on the mats.

Expect to get the everyday perspective on what Karate is, what Karate competition is like, fake martial arts, finding the right gym, how to manage PTSD with martial arts and much more...
