My name is Steve Applegate, one of the instructors at Team Applegate Martials Arts.

 

I have been training in Taekwon-do since 2008, I hold a 4th degree black belt. I have been teaching Taekwon-do since 2014 and have had the privilege of training and teaching alongside many amazing instructors over the years. Which has given me lots of new opportunities and experiences.

​

On a personal level, I am a family oriented man who has been married for over 20 years with 3 amazing children. 

​

I am a sport enthusiast who likes to spend my spare time in the gym striving to be the best I can for my students. I also enjoy competing in a local snooker league. 

My name is Andrea (Andi) Applegate, instructor at Team Applegate Martial Arts.

 

I am a third degree black belt and have experience in kickboxing and many other different sport activities.

 

I am a big believer that Martial Arts will increase confidence, build strength and endurance whilst relieving stress as this is what it has done for me.

 

My personal journey has been challenging with many learning curves along the way. 

​

I have 3 children of my own and have always worked with children and enjoy helping them to become confident, independent individuals. 

My name is Laurence Barrett, the newest of the instructors here at Team Applegate Martial Arts. 

 

I am a second degree blackbelt and have had the pleasure of training alongside some fantastic instructors over the years, in a variety of martial arts, before finding my real passion as a student with Team Applegate Martial Arts, and I can't wait to help others learn, and share this passion. 

 

When I am not training, I love spending time either at the gym, exploring the countryside on my bike, and spending time with my wife and son.
