Roots
The man who was the creator of Blaze was Martin Sterling.
A career martial artist, he learnt the art and science of fire walking on a research trip into Indian martial
arts in late 1983. He studied the art at the feet of the masters in India for many months before returning
to the UK in 1984. He has been running events involving fire walking since that time.
He has enjoyed a wide and varied career which include working in the movie special effects industry, being a bodyguard, a stuntman, and a scriptwriter for children's TV programmes, as well as running his own martial arts organisation for many years.
He pioneered and developed the concept of using fire walking as a vehicle for philanthropic fundraising in the mid 80's and has been championing its cause ever since. A Keynote Speaker, Trainer and Corporate Consultant, Martin has become known for his innovative approach to assisting people in getting results and creating rapid change for people who want to achieve more for themselves.
His clients include people from all walks of life, mums, dads, local and national sporting teams, world class athletes, and corporate directors who are all committed to living their ultimate life.
Through his many years spent studying personal growth and development, he has inspired thousands to adopt new concepts and ideas in a variety of differing business and personal situations. Martin brings special warmth to the business, and now helps people from many backgrounds to achieve their personal and professional goals.
A confident self-starter, Martin is living proof that success is about the individual, and continues to tackle everything with a 'can-do' attitude.
