Sam has been with Team NSK since the very beginning, growing from a determined young student into a trusted member of the coaching team. He takes a thoughtful, strategic approach to training and always looks for ways to help students grow in both skill and confidence.
He’s passionate about helping others unlock both physical stamina and mental resilience — showing students that with the right mindset, they’re capable of far more than they realise.

Proudest moments:
Earning his black belt remains one of Sam’s biggest achievements — a challenging and high-standard grading that pushed him to prove every skill he’d built over the years. It was a defining moment that recognised not just ability, but hard work and persistence.
Being awarded both his assistant coach and full coach uniforms were equally proud milestones. They marked his transition from student to leader — and showed that dedication pays off.
Vision:
Sam’s goal is to give every student the same opportunities he had — to earn their black belt, grow in confidence, and be part of something bigger. He believes in the power of teamwork, and that pushing each other to improve is how we all move forward — stronger together.
