Welcome to 'Pass Your White Belt in Sport Nunchaku' online training course,

My name is Richard Smith and I'm the Founder of Sport Nunchaku UK and Vice President of Nunchaku International Academy, which has clubs around the world. In my over 40 years of training and 25 years of teaching martial arts I have met many students and fellow practitioners from all walks of life and strongly believe that martial arts can be for everyone.

As a passionate advocate for inclusivity in martial arts, I have designed this series of online courses to give everyone the opportunity to become a qualified martial artist and to join the exciting world of martial arts.

Accredited by the Nunchaku International Academy, the courses are aimed at complete beginners of all ages including those with mental health problems and/or special needs, such as autism and ADHD, who may find it difficult to access face-to-face martial arts training. The online nature of the course allows you to work towards your belts in the comfort of your own home and at a pace that suits you.

Even if you already have some experience in nunchaku, you will still need to start at the beginning and work your way through the courses in order to be awarded with your belts.

Each course in the series includes tutorial videos in which I train with you to develop all the skills required to pass the assessment for your next belt. The training will follow the accredited curriculum and each course includes elements of freestyle, combat, kata and nunchaku-jitsu.

At the end of each course you will submit a video demonstrating your newly-developed Nunchaku skills on which you will be graded and, if successful, be awarded with your belt. In this course, you will be working towards achieving your white/yellow belt, the first/next step on your exciting journey towards your black belt.

Following the guidance in the tutorial videos and training hard, you will find that not only are your nunchaku skills developing but also that, with my encouragement and support, your confidence, self-belief and motivation are growing alongside.

Good luck and I look forward to joining you on your training journey!
