Kelly started training in Devon in 1993 at the age of 10.
She passed her Shodan Grading in 1996 under the watchful eye of Sensei Enoeda.
Kelly relocated to London in 2004 for a teaching job, and it was then that she joined Chelmsford SKC. Even with the commute, she trained three to four times a week under Senseis Charles and Dot Naylor, and Senseis Jane and Richard Naylor Jones.
She passed her Nidan Grading in 2005 and her Sandan Grading in 2017 under Sensei Sherry and Sensei Poynton, which is when she became a Senior Instructor.
