Former factory worker Nidar Singh Nihang, 44, was trained in the mysterious art of Shastar Vidiya by an 80-year-old guru from northern India.
Selfless Nidar has devoted his entire life to the ancient warrior culture and holds master-classes around the world. But the father-of-four is now searching for a successor in order to pass the secrets of Shastar Vidiya to a new generation.
Nidar is inviting potential candidates to learn the ancient martial art at his Midlands home in Wolverhampton.
He said: ''Shastar Vidiya is a part of my history and culture and without it we lose our character.
''It has changed history and produced great warriors - for it to die out now would be a tragedy.
''Throughout the day, no matter what I am doing, Shastar Vidiya is always in my mind.
''I am the last known remaining master - it is my mission in life now to find a successor to carry on this great martial art.
''If I die with it, it is all gone.''

The Indians coming from different cultures, states, religions, languages all agree on one thing when it comes to Fellow Indians.
The Sikhs are the first people to stand by you and the last people you would want to stand against. It is just part of who they are.
Not just other Indians. It was the same sentiment expressed by many a British army commander, right back from the 1850s and through two World Wars.The Sikhs are the first people to stand by you and the last people you would want to stand against. It is just part of who they are.
