}}Nidar Singh Nihang (Punjabi: ਨਿਡਰ ਸਿੰਘ ਨਿਹੰਗ) (born 1967 in Wolverhampton) is a British scholar and grandmaster (Gurdev) of the ancient Indian martial art of Shaster Vidya. [1]

Career

Nidar is the last surviving master and ninth teacher of the Baba Darbara Singh Shastar Vidya Akhara - a martial arts school founded in 1661 [2] and has been training 70 hours a week for 30 years. [3] Prior to becoming a full-time martial arts instructor he worked as a factory worker to support his wife and 4 children. [4]

He regards the Sikh community as the current custodian of Shaster Vidya which has been looked after by many different creeds and cultures over thousands of years [5] and is looking for a successor to ensure the survival of the art form. [6] His teachings include the idea that at the core of Shastar Vidya is meditation on the infinite and to see God/the infinite in all things. [7]

Nidar has authored the book ‘In the Master's Presence - The Sikhs of Hazoor Sahib’ [8] and also teaches Shaster Vidya throughout the UK [9] and has set up centres in Italy and India. [10] The art form includes learning the use of weapons such as swords [11] and chakars. [12]

Early Life

Nidar met his martial arts teacher Baba Mohinder Singh by accident on a family trip to India when he was 17 and gave up higher education for the chance to study the art full time with his teacher for 11 years. [13]
