Sagiba
Sensei
After age 4 following
a series of stressful events, Nev had become a sickly child plagued
with all manner of illness. At age 7, he decided to build himself
up and learn to defend himself. So he joined a judo club in Hawthorn,
Melbourne where he was pitted against older boys who were very competitive.
He just got bashed up, got sick and ended up in bed again. Lung problems
and ill health continued to plague him.
By age 10 he had
reaffirmed that he would build himself up and took up swimming and
athletics which he pursued with a fanatical zeal. He also tried weight
training and studied and experimented with nutrition, cycled everywhere
and took up judo again at Balwyn Judo Club with Sensei Jim Seitel
and Rodney Cox. And then karate and other 'martial sports'.

Kendo,
Kenjutsu and varied Buki are an integral and essential strategic adjunct
to Taijutsu training without which Taijutsu will never be understood
or become of use in real self defence encounters.
At
over 1000 metres above sea level, high altitude mountain training is
a regular feature of each weeks training.
Annual
Camps form part of the dedicated regular traditional training...
Street
Defence Courses are an introductory course showing how easy it is for
beginners to apply simple principles of self defence to do applied
techniques...
Scenario
Based Training is an advanced course re-enacting situations that may
happen and leaning to understand the dynamics of violent emergencies
to survive or avoid them altogether...
(Not
currently available) Uchideshi or 'Live- In' Students/Apprentices are
an ancient tradition accessed only by those who seek to attain high
levels of mastery. Not everyone who applies is accepted and not everyone
who is accepted survives the process.( In June 2006 our indoor dojo
was relocated to a smaller venue. Qualifying sotodeshi may be accepted
in some cases.)
