SOMA is an independent School; its tao is that of a school of learning openly and freely about other styles of Martial Arts from experienced high-grade black belts that are students of our Master.

It is a school where we always show respect to another’s style!

EVERYONE is made welcome no matter what their abilities are, without any fear of ridicule or challenges to their own teachings and views!

The School of Martial Arts, does not, and never has held itself out to be a "Pure Style" such as being taught by traditional focused and specific martial art Masters, Sifus, Senseis, Sabans, of Tae Kwon Do, Karate, Kung-Fu, Judo, Ju-Jitsu, Aikido etc, etc.

Should you wish to train in a traditional school, please, contact teachers who will be dedicated to teach your chosen style!

The teachings are of a “San Sao” (Cantonese for fighting arts) nature, e.g., various techniques based on “What If” street scenarios in extremely realistic ‘normal’ situations that the students have requested of him.

Our Master will then show the students examples of what he would do, and then invites some of the black belts present – we have 38 various Black Belts who visit and train with SOMA on a regular basis - to offer and impart their knowledge too, thus we work in harmony, together.

Anyone who joins our School will not be taught any 'specific style', BUT, will be exposed to many different ones!

Our Master felt that it would be beneficial to both the newcomer to martial arts who is simply "looking for something" and the more experienced martial artist, to create such a School .

He estimates that there must be over 300 different martial art styles, unfortunately, you would be a long time dead before you even scratched the surface to study all of them!
