John holds the rank of 5th Dan International Referee, Instructor and Examiner.
Teaching the Children's Class and the popular Adult Only Class at Rutherglen. John Has been teaching at Kihonkai for over 20years , a very well liked Instructor with young and old alike.
"Thirty years of existence for the Kihonkai Dojo bears testament to the founder, owner and chief instructor, Sensei Stevie Mason.
He is without doubt the epitome of what a true Sensei entails, a karateka that sets the example by being a training man, a Budoka,
a man who understands discipline but at the same time compassion and a karateka with an outstanding technical knowledge of Karate -do.
Scotland can be proud of Stevie Mason as KWF are and as I am to have the privilege to call him friend".
KWF Grandmaster Mikio Yahara (2017)
