Sensei Nigel Davison 5th Dan
Strength
In Unity!
For nearly 30 years, we have lived the same principles we
teach our students. We do our best to "Walk our Talk"
and see that all Sensei's (Instructors) are highly trained
role model examples of our own training systems. We've always
strived to be a World Class Team of Black Belt Leaders who
shares their passion and knowledge with their students.
Nigel
is a natural Martial Artist, in the same way that some people
are natural athletes, or natural gifted at anything. He
is an outstanding motivator who achieves measurable results,
and unlike most truly gifted people, he is aware of what
he is doing right. This means that he can pass it on to
those of us who are less gifted. His true passion is teaching
and training, and his philosophy to teaching is based upon:
“I
am not going to show you what ‘I’ can do; I’m
going to show you what you can do.”
He
began his training in 1978 in Traditional Japanese Wado
Ryu style Karate, which translated means “The
Way of Peace and Harmony.”
As he expanded his skills, and talents in Wado Ryu Karate,
he also began learning new arts to add to his knowledge
and started experimenting with other Martial Arts. Like
Bruce Lee, he was blending the best strengths of each art
that he was studying. Most other styles of martial arts
tend to focus on just individual areas of self-defence.
Combining the best of many martial arts into our blended
system gives our students the advantage they need to react
with confidence to protect themselves, family and friends
in virtually any situation.
He
also began to study more about the psychological side of
Peak Performance and added proven success principles. That
concept led to an entire Life Skills Curriculum that is
designed to influence a students Attitude, Behaviour and
Character. Instantly, students were enjoying the benefits
of this new format and were training with greater intensity,
while gaining a deeper level of personal growth and expertise.
Our
students were learning much more than just kicking and punching,
besides honing their fighting skills, they were becoming
Black Belt Champions in Life. Our primary focus began to
follow a traditional principal of martial arts training,
called Excellence in Knowledge,
Excellence
in Knowledge, as it has traditionally been used in the martial
arts, represents the quest for excellence in each of the
major aspects of our experience: Mind, Body and
Spirit. Our Karate schools became 100% committed
to developing our students in a more complete fashion. We
found that by strengthening their attitude, behaviour and
character, now known as the ABC’s of Black Belt Success,
we were better able to build their minds and bodies, while
instilling a non-quitting Black Belt Spirit.
Educational-Motivational-Inspirational
Besides teaching great Martial Arts, we educate and motivate
our students with critical life skills, such as goal setting,
leadership, fitness, self-defence, self-discipline, improved
focus and concentration, mutual respect and relationship
building. Our programmes are leading edge in the development
of Peak Performance.
Our
Leadership and Instructor training programmes include a
dynamic and exciting curriculum in all of the above areas.
We also teach our students to develop habits of personal
safety and awareness, along with how to deal with conflict
in a non-violent manner.
We
utilise the latest in modern training methods to build dynamic
class energy that is exciting, empowering, and educational.
Our outstanding Little Dragons Programme for Ages 4-6 is
a leader in its class.
Our Junior and Adult programmes are recognised for producing
outstanding and excellent students with their content, energy
dynamics and self-development.
We
are a Black Belt School... We are motivated... We are Dedicated...
