Karate is more than just kicks and belts, it is a state of mind. Join our BBK family, where we build discipline and real-world strength together.

This is what our community builds towards. The annual BBK Championship is a massive event filled with energy, where hundreds of students showcase their skills in Kata and Kumite in front of cheering families and friends.

Experience the intensity of our Grand Championship fights. This is where training meets test, showing the dynamic sparring techniques, speed, and control our senior karatekas develop for high-level kumite competition.

The proud result of hard work. Here is our Marathahalli dojo's summer camp batch after their successful Kyu grading, holding their certificates with pride. We believe in providing clear goals and celebrating every milestone.

The journey to black belt is one of immense dedication. Our black belt grading exam tests everything: advanced techniques, physical endurance, breaking skills, and the indomitable spirit of a true martial artist.

Discipline and focus start early. Here, our young students at DPS Whitefield are in perfect sync during an outdoor belt grading session, demonstrating the strong foundation we build in our kids' karate programs.

This is the art of Karate in motion. A perfectly executed Ushiro Ura-Mawashi Geri (hooking back kick) captured during a state-level tournament, showcasing the advanced kicking techniques our fighters master.

Victory is sweetest when shared. I am incredibly proud to stand with our champions and their trophies after a successful state-level inter-dojo karate championship. Their success is a testament to their relentless effort.

Our students' achievements are a source of great pride for our dojo. Here is one of our champions featured in the Vijaya Karnataka newspaper for her outstanding performance in a state-level karate tournament.

About Featured

When you step into any of our dojos, whether in Marathahalli or Jayanagar, you aren't just joining a class, you are joining a family. I keep my batches focused and personal, and it's why I'll likely ask you 'Elli mane nimdu?' on day one. It's about knowing who I am training and helping you build the discipline that stays with you long after you leave the floor.

I'm Derick Kishan, and I've built Bangalore Budokan to be more than a martial arts academy. It's a community where I push students to go beyond their limits, whether they are training for a black belt or just starting with their first kick. Come train with us and see what you are capable of.

The authenticity of our teaching comes directly from Okinawa, the birthplace of karate. It was a moment of great honor to receive my Kyoshi Nanadan (7th Dan) rank from my teacher, Hanshi Minoru Nakazato, at the Shorin-ryu Shorinkan Honbu Dojo in Japan. This connection ensures that every student here learns the true art.
Kobudo, the art of Okinawan weapons, is an integral part of our curriculum. This is me demonstrating a stance with a traditional Eku (oar), a practice that develops strength, coordination, and a deeper understanding of martial principles beyond empty-hand techniques.
