Aaron Turner opened up Core Judo Academy UAE in January this year. With Great Britain representation behind him, he has plenty to offer the young athletes at his academy. At list of Turner’s feats leave no doubt as to his ability:
- Multiple World Cup medallist
- Multiple senior national medallist
- Multiple national team champion
- Commonwealth Tournament champion
- GB World Team Championships representative
- Represented GB at U17, U20 , U23 and senior international level
