Rhys Jones began his training under the instruction of Sensei Mandie Read (5th Dan) since he was 6 years old studying the art of Shukokai Karate. Over the years of training with Mandie, Rhys has competed in National and International events winning Gold, Silver and Bronze awards.
At the age of 11 years, Rhys moved to Germany to live where he carried on learning karate. As there were no Shukokai Karate club in the area, Rhys relied on his brother (Sensei Ross Jones) to keep training him in the hope that one day he could achieve his 1st Dan Black Belt.
Rhys joined another karate club out in Germany which train’s Shotokan karate. Since that time, Rhys has gained his 3rd Kyu in Shotokan karate.
In August 2008, Rhys was on holiday in the UK where Mandie Read told him, that he was going to sit his 1st Dan grading.
Rhys now trains under the instruction of his brother, Sensei Ross Jones in Gütersloh Karate Club.
