Whilst visiting Cambridge in the summer of 2019, Nick met Col at a Tai Chi summer camp. After returning to Switzerland Nick kept in touch, and soon started returning to Cambridge on a regular basis to train Escrima Concepts with Col. 5 years on, in July 2024 Nick & Col launched Vortex Zürich and Vortex Cambridge to share the benefits of integrating CliftonStrengths®, LEGO® Serious Play®, and Kung Fu.

Col is a seasoned martial arts instructor with a rich experience spanning over two decades of teaching children, youths, and adults. As cofounder of Cambridge Kung Fu, his journey in the martial arts world is marked by a deep commitment to teaching practical and efficient self-defence alongside the real-world applicability of martial arts principles. In recent years, Col has expanded his teaching scope beyond the traditional martial arts environment to focus more broadly on enabling people to achieve their potential.  After a few years of exploring the world of Agile, strengths, and LEGO®, Col became a Gallup®-Certified Strengths Coach in 2024 in preparation for the launch of Vortex Cambridge.

Nick is a problem-solver. He enjoys abstraction and finding patterns and has a passion for continuous learning and helping others to find their purpose and embrace it. Nick’s experience comes mostly from international banks in Switzerland, Singapore and the UK in hands-on and leadership roles in software and product development, project management and risk.
