All world champions need to start somewhere. Allegedly, 14 year old Kash simply sauntered into retired champ Howard Brown's kickboxing class in 1980 because he fancied "having a go" at the sport. But like the famed Oliver Twist, he just kept going back for more. The rest, as they say is history. . .
Gill's natural ability and speed soon earned him the nickname "The Flash"; a name which abtly stuck with him for the rest of his fighting career. By 1984 having earned his black belt, Gill at the tender age of 18, had entered and won his first competition in a 3 round contest in full contact karate. A champion was in the making. . .Mr excitement was born.
The list of world titles that kash picked up and added to his collection over the next few years is impressive.
1.The gold medal in the PKA World Amateur Championships in St Nazaire.
2.The light-middleweight gold medal in Paris.
3.The light-middleweight title in the British professional PKA championship
4.The WKA professional European kickboxing title in Palermo, Italy . . .
Having created not just ripples, but waves of excitement in the world of kickboxing, Kash was now widely acknowledged as a world class Thaiboxer. He scaled new heights in his career, collecting his first professional world title, the WKA Junior middleweight in 1991. In the two consecutive years, he went on to win the WKA World Middleweight Kickboxing title and ISKA Light Middleweight title.
Despite his success in the ring, Mr Gill has his feet firmly planted on the ground. Birmingham born and bred, the man behind the world-champion is a very likeable one and makes a sensational teacher. That's why crowds flock to his kickboxing classes and workshops.
