The greatest gift you can give....

Is your time.

It's a philosophy I've always had in the decades I've been teaching and is reflected in the many 5* google reviews we receive:

'patient and passionate...'

'amazing ability to engage, inspire and teach...'

I always try to give you my time. It's a commodity that is in short supply but is in my power to give.

My next step is to try to give you the gift of communication

As I see it. Social anxiety and lack of confidence can be plugged by the iPad or your mobile phone. Those opportunities for listening and speaking with authority must be developed.

For an hour (or more) a week you are presented with a purposeful, nurturing environment where we can help with those essential skills of communication.

The mistake I see in the industry currently.

They make it too much about themselves. Train with a world champion. Learn from a 9th Dan master. THEM THEM THEM.

They focus upon the money. Moreover - how to get it from you. Have you noticed how expensive some schools are at the moment?

As I see it - The power of collective delusion can be strong. On one side you have marketing companies selling you as a lead, selling the martial arts owner a new reality that they should be paid more than Dentists, Doctors and Solicitors. The marketing team, owner have an interest to create obscene tuition prices in the mass market to self validiate.

Everyone wins. Except you.

If you can afford it then you perpetuate the price rises across the sector.

Your sporting bragging should come from its output not price tag!!!

Of course no one is suggesting that you shouldn't be paid. Or appropriately.

What I'm getting at is cross sections of society no longer have access to affordable sports and your instructor is now a high end salesman not a karate teacher.

If you need a place to go - I won't turn you away.
