What do we provide?

  • strongly committed staff who live the life that they promote; who are enthusiastic about the benefits of our training and are committed to passing these on to our students.

  • rigorous uncompromising training that will test our students and forge within them the grit and determination to face all of life's challenges head on.

  • encouragement for each student to not only explore the meaning of the physical forms and techniques that they are learning, but to also seek out the deeper moral and spiritual principles behind their training.

  • encouragement for each student to take ownership of their training, and to reach the level of maturity where they can steer their own ship. Our ideal is for every student to become self-sufficient - to develop a strong character that will guide them through life and that will allow them to one day pass what they have learned on to others.
