My journey in martial arts began at an early age under the guidance of my father, Head Instructor Michael Davies. Beginning training at the age of five, I was immersed in a disciplined environment rooted in traditional values, technical precision, and deep respect for the art. These early experiences shaped both my development as a martial artist and my character as an individual.

As I grew older, my training intensified. In 2012, I began studying more rigorously alongside my father under Grandmaster Kenneth Balliet. Training four to five nights per week, I was introduced to the depth, discipline, and classical methodology of Ryukyu Shorinji‑Ryu Karate‑Jutsu. Under Grandmaster Balliet’s instruction, I developed a profound appreciation for authentic Okinawan martial arts and the principles that guide them — humility, perseverance, and unwavering respect.

In December of 2014, I was honored to be promoted to the rank of Nidan (2nd Dan) by Grandmaster Balliet. His mentorship extended far beyond physical technique; he instilled in me the values and responsibilities expected of a true practitioner of Okinawan karate.

Through continued dedication, study, and commitment to the art, I progressed further in my training. I currently hold the rank of Yondan (4th Dan), continuing to train, refine, and uphold the traditions passed down through my instructors.

Today, I remain committed to preserving the integrity of Ryukyu Shorinji‑Ryu Karate‑Jutsu. My focus is on disciplined practice, technical precision, and the transmission of authentic Okinawan martial traditions to the next generation of students. Through my teaching and continued study, I strive to honor the legacy entrusted to me and contribute to the future of our lineage.
