NI-SEN KARATE KAI

Sensei Quinn formed Ni-Sen at the start of the millenium and Ni-Sen means 2000. After 25 years training , teaching, competing internationally, and expanding his own knowledge of Karate Sensei Quinn decided it was time to share all his wealth of knowledge and form Ni-Sen Karate.

Sensei Quinn was the E.K.G.B. kata champion from 1992 until 1996 and had the honour to compete for England on many different occassions.

Some of the Karate instructors which Sensi Quinn has had the privilege to train under are:  Sensei Ticky Donvan O.B.E, Sensei Kyoshi Patrick McCarthy, Sensei Dave Hazard.

Sensei Quinn's Philosophy when forming Ni-Sen Karate is:

"Ni-Sen will never be a "style" and was never intended to be; it encompasses everything of value to the contemporary student, without restricting itself to a single discipline."

Sensei Quinn is constantly learning and evolving as a karate student and teacher, he says:

"I am also constantly learning myself. As I find better ways of doing things they naturally start to filter into my teaching. So Ni-Sen is in a constant state of evolution, reflecting the needs of students in the modern world."

Sensei David Vissian has trained for over 25 years and has been teaching for 19 years. He has also trained at various other disciplines such as Shotokan, Kempo and Tae Kwondo.

Sensei Dave Vissians’ main discipline was with Ishinryu under Sensei Ticky Donovan 8^th Dan OBE for over 15 years.

His knowledge of karate is extensive because he has had the privilege of training with some of the best karate instructors in the world, some of these being Ticky Donovan 8^th Dan OBE, David Hazard 7^th Dan, Vick Charles 6^th Dan MBE, Dominique Valera 9^th Dan (French Champion), John Richards 7^th Dan, Dominique Sigillo 6^th Dan   (Swiss Champion) and Super foot Bill Wallace (American Full Contact kick Boxing Champion) .

Teaching
