A Holistic Approach Beyond Martial Arts
Vision
To Inspire a Generation to make a global impact
Our vision is to inspire a generation that they can and should impact the world for good. Our legacy will not just be what happens in the dojo but what our students do when they leave. We are proud to say that our Character Development Centre in Dubai is the only specialist Character Development Centre in the Middle East. Our purpose built facility is designed to host workshops, hold classes and embodies our community value.
“We are looking at the past for ancient solutions to solve our modern problems.”
Sebastian Bates, Founder and CEO of the Warrior Academy
We believe there is nothing else out there like martial arts to develop a young person’s Character. Combining modern teaching methods with traditional values and a moral code we have established an excellent methodology which embraces this shift to great effect.
Mission
To build a black belt community on every continent mentoring 20,000 children per week.
Each club has a waiting list and we require parents to have an informal introduction call to establish goals and values before being accepted onto the programme. We want to make sure our club is right for you and match your child with the perfect class. You can book in your introduction call here.

Taekwondo can be an effective tool for character development. By instilling the values of respect, self-control, discipline, goal setting, courage, and compassion, taekwondo can help individuals become more well-rounded and compassionate individuals. The skills learned through taekwondo can be applied in all aspects of life, helping children develop into successful and responsible adults. Whether your child is interested in taekwondo for fitness, self-defense, or character development, the benefits of the discipline go far beyond the training hall.
Not a Victim book
Authored by Sebastian Bates
Bullying, a complex and damaging behaviour, is dissected in “Not a Victim” to provide a clearer understanding. Bates uncovers the various forms of bullying, including the increasingly prevalent cyberbullying, and provides an in-depth analysis of the motivations and impacts of these behaviours on individuals and communities.
The Not a Victim book serves as an essential guide in the fight against bullying. This book is not only a collection of strategies but also an insightful exploration into the psychology of bullying, offering hope and empowerment to those affected.
