Gary Watkinson

Gary Watkinson has been both an avid sportsman & martial artist throughout his life. From the age of ten Gary has been actively involved in martial arts & body building. In his late teens Gary competed nationally at body building events & was twice finalist at the National Amateur Body-Builders’ Association; once teenage Mr Britian & Junior Mr UK.

At the age of 21 Gary began boxing at York Boxing Club before training under the instruction of Andy Wilby at Way of Life Thai Boxing Camp. Since then, Gary has become a qualified Muay Thai instructor & developed a passion for Mixed Martial Arts where he now trains & coaches the next generation of champion fighters. With this in mind, Garys goal is to make Multi Masters Academy the premium professional fighting academy in Yorkshire.

To date Gary has had ten competitive fights with 7 wins & 3 losses. His background in bodybuilding means he has an excellent knowledge of both nutrition & sports science which, in turn, means Multi Masters Academy students receive the absolute best advice in all areas of their training.

Besides teaching a variety of classes, Gary is also available for one to one training sessions for students either looking to get fit or to develop their MMA skills.
