The Hari Singh Nalwa Academy located in Leicester, United Kingdom teaches martial arts, combat, and fitness training for the local community. The Academy has a high number of young children learning to stay fit who take advantage of the various classes.
However, the interesting thing is the academy has a good number of Kaurs learning self-defense and mixed martial arts.
Kaurs have throughout history been pivotal at many points in Sikh history by showing their bravery from Mata Bhag Kaur Ji to Bibi Bhagael Kaur Ji to Sardarani Sada Kaur who led Singhs when conquering Lahore. The Kaurs had also made up a good percentage of the Khalsa Fauj during the turbulent times from the 1730s to 1780s.
Perhaps with such excellent training facility and coaches of Hari Singh Nalwa Academy, the day for the first Sikh female MMA fighter might not be too far. UK is one of the places in the world where youngsters are coming back to Sikhi in very high numbers and programs such as the Academy’s approach of teaching self-defense will reawaken the warrior spirit of Sikhs.
