What We're About
I want you to feel strong from the inside out. At Rajesh Thakkar's Karate Academy, self-defense isn't just about fighting - it's about finding that spark in you and using it when life throws something unexpected. My workshops break down years of Goju-Ryu Karate into simple moves anyone can use.
What You'll Learn
- Basics like stances, movement, and how to spot trouble early
- Easy punches, kicks, and blocks that actually work outside the dojo
- Drills on pads to get your speed and power up
- Partner exercises, always in a safe and controlled way
Who Can Join
Doesn't matter if you're a total newbie or never worn a gi in your life. These beginner self-defense techniques are for all ages - I've taught kids, aunties, office folks, and even grandpas. Lot of focus goes into women's self-protection classes - for moms, students, sisters. If you're from a company or group, we run community safety workshops too.
How We Do It
Since 1980, we've built a space where you can try, mess up, and get better without anyone judging. We make sure everyone feels safe and respected. You'll see - it's not just about karate moves, it's about getting ready for real-life threat response training.
Ganbatte, boss! (Give it your best!)
