See why our students, parents, and friends choose us as their home for self-defense and martial arts in Bangalore. ## Photos and videos - [Video: It makes me proud to see our community grow through word of mouth. This is what Bangalore Budokan is all about: friends learning and growing stronger together.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/8693ceec-ebe3-4e00-82c8-58fc54a61279) ## About Hear From Our Community Most of our new students come to us through friends and neighbors who have already seen the BBK difference. When you join, you are not just signing up for a class; you are joining a neighborhood group that trains, sweats, and grows together. It is exactly why I make it a point to ask 'Elli mane nimdu?'—because knowing your home locality helps us connect you with your closest training dojo, so your karate journey stays part of your daily routine rather than becoming another commute. ### Why Our Community Keeps Growing At Bangalore Budokan, we have never been about big marketing or fancy gimmicks. We are about the sweat on the mat, the discipline of a well-executed Kata, and the confidence that comes with knowing how to defend yourself. When you hear our students talk about us, they aren't talking about facilities or AC rooms. They are talking about the 'family' factor. ### More Than Just Karate Classes Whether you are looking for **self-defense training** for your children or a **martial arts dojo** for yourself, we have built a space that welcomes everyone. We believe that Karate is a lifestyle, and that mindset is what keeps our students coming back, whether they are training at our Malleshwaram center, our HSR Layout spots, or during our weekend boot camps. ### Join the BBK Tribe We keep our sessions practical and relevant to the city we live in. From learning to handle chain-snatching scenarios to teaching kids about anti-bullying, our training is grounded in real-world application. We don't just teach moves; we teach awareness, resilience, and the power of a strong community. If you have been thinking about starting, stop waiting for the 'perfect time.' Show up, put in the work, and become part of our story. We are training every day across Bangalore, and there is always space on the mat for one more. ## About Derick Kishan I’m Derick Kishan, and I founded Bangalore Budokan to build a tribe, not just an academy.
