   LOVE & the Development of SELF-DISCIPLINE IS THE 

    This program was formulated in the year of 1984 by Sensei  Robert Dickerson who has been a member of drill teams since 1964, in Darby & Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.   He is currently a 9th Degree Grand Master Black Belt in the Martial Arts (Karate).

    The members of the UPK Pasha Generals Drill Team are some of the elite members of the Universal Pasha Karate School and the UCC Leadership & Cadet Discipline Program.   This is a Rites of Passage Program using the dynamics of the Martial Arts and Military Style Training as vehicles to develop self-discipline and moral character. We conduct workshops, seminars, training sessions, and demonstrations on developing leadership and self-discipline. This program is different from most cadet programs since it teaches and stresses the importance of cultural, historical and social awareness to inner-city youth or at risk youth. This program without any doubt, has proven its successful way in developing inner-city youth, when many programs have failed in rehabilitating youth.

    The UPK Pasha Generals specializes in close order discipline military-style drilling.   Their purpose is to serve as a model of what young people can achieve if they understand the principles of love and discipline.   They represent the character, morals, and values of manhood sought by many people and especially the women in this country.  One of the most unique qualities about the UPK Pasha Generals is that they are all world Karate champions.   The UPK Pasha Generals are multi-talented in the performing arts.   They are instrumental, jazz musicians and the drummers of the Universal African Dance & Drum Ensemble.    The UPK Pasha Generals have been seen by millions, on cable, local and national television.   Many say, that the UPK Pasha Generals almost defy explanation, but we can say, they have a UNIVERSAL APPROACH that can be appreciated by many races, religions, cultures and many ways of life.

    The members of the UPK Pasha Generals are all advanced Karate practitioners, from the Universal Pasha Karate School, in Camden, New Jersey.   They are helping thousands of youth by teaching leadership development and Martial Arts.  They have suffered the same problems that most inner-city youth are faced with daily.   However, they have grown into honor roll students, college students, college graduates, school teachers, entrepreneurs, advanced-level musicians, Karate World Champions, and positive role-models for their peers.   With the dedicated help of Mr. Dickerson oldest son Jamal P. Dickerson, who is also the UPK Pasha General's Supreme Captain and Head Drill Instructor (DI),  they have received the title of the 1993 Worlds Best Disciplined Drill Team in Baltimore, Maryland.   In 1994 they received the Worlds Best Overall Drill Team in Chicago, Illinois at the I.B.P.O. Elks of the World Drill-A-Rama Championships.

    Today, the UPK Pasha Generals travels extensively conducting workshops, seminars and demonstrations on developing self-discipline.   They participate on local, national, and cable television and radio talk shows.  They provide a creative forum for people to understand the principles of love and discipline.   The UPK Pasha Generals travel to schools, college, universities, community organizations, and religious institutions.   The UPK Pasha Generals have received overwhelming acclaim from celebrities, politicians, educators and people of many cultures.
