Terry was appointed to the secretariat of Federation All Japan Karate Organisations (FAJKO) and the World Union of Karate Organisations (WUKO) as the only foreigner.
Terry helped organise the first World Karate Championships in Japan in 1970 and subsequently travelled the world many times as a WUKO staff member.
Terry was also studying Jujitsu & Aikido and he was invited as a Karate instructor to many countries. Terry's position in the secretariat of FAJKO and WUKO opened many doors for him to study with great Masters in martial arts during his 21 year stay in Japan. Terry was awarded his 7th Dan Kyoshi in 1989, by Masafumi Suzuki 10th Dan.
He was awarded his 8th Dan Hanshi in May 2007, by Sensei Hiroshi Kinjo, the last Karate Genro (elder). Who at 88 years old is regarded as the “walking encyclopaedia “ of karate.
Terry is non-political regarding martial arts and truly enjoys imparting his extensive knowledge to students and teachers of all ages and grades. He REFUSES payment for his teaching saying he teaches because he “wants to”, not “because he has to”.
