I began my journey in Shitō-Ryū Karate-Do in 1992, and for over 33 years, karate has been more than a martial art to me — it has been a lifelong path of discipline, self-development, and respect for tradition. I currently hold the rank of 6th Dan Black Belt, officially certified by the Shitō-Ryū Karate Association Singapore.

Over the decades, I have dedicated myself to both mastering and teaching karate, guided by integrity, humility, and a deep commitment to the traditional values of Shitō-Ryū. Teaching karate is not just about physical technique, but about shaping character, mindset, and personal growth.

I am the Founder of the Shitō-Ryū Karate Club, Kuwait, where it has been my honor to train and mentor students of all ages and backgrounds. Our mission extends beyond producing skilled martial artists — we aim to build confidence, discipline, respect, and responsibility in every student.

At Shitō-Ryū Karate Club, we believe karate is more than self-defense — it is a way of life. Whether one trains for health, sport, self-protection, or personal development, the ultimate goal is to become a balanced, disciplined, and respectful individual.

I am proud of our dedicated team of instructors, who uphold the authentic values and traditions of Shitō-Ryū Karate. Our club offers traditional karate training, self-defense, and sport karate, ensuring a comprehensive path for all who wish to learn and grow through this powerful martial art.
