It is not just about physical strength; it is about building the mindset of a warrior. ## Photos and videos - ![This poster represents my deep connection to traditional Karate. As a 5th Dan Sensei alongside Sensei Alpa Khatri, I offer international certification programs and training through the All India Shotokan Karate-Do-Federation. The same core principles of strength and discipline are woven into my fitness certification courses.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/a5c33b59-fac3-4fb4-8c25-d59b92a2cda8) ## About My Foundation in Martial Arts The foundation of my teaching, whether for a black belt grading or a group fitness bootcamp, remains rooted in the Shotokan Karate principles I learned from Shihan Kousaku Yokota. You are not just learning moves; you are training your body to be reactive, sharp, and disciplined, mirroring the exact mechanics required for both effective self-defence and competitive martial arts. My approach to martial arts is built on 12 years of direct training under Shihan Kousaku Yokota. When you train with the All India Shotokan Karate-Do-Federation (AISKF), you are learning the authentic Asai-ryu style. ### Why Discipline Matters In our dojo, martial arts goes beyond physical movement. It is a path to developing mental fortitude, situational awareness, and the ability to remain calm under pressure. These principles do not stay on the mat; they translate into how you approach your daily life, your fitness, and your personal goals. ### Real Self-Defence The classes I conduct across Mumbai focus on practical self-defence. We strip away flashy, impractical elements and teach you movements that work in real-world scenarios. Whether you are a total beginner or an experienced practitioner looking to refine your technique, my sessions focus on biomechanics, proper striking, and effective blocking. ### Training With Us We are a community, not just a gym. Whether you train with us at our Borivali studio or join our online sessions, you become part of the AISKF family. We host regular gradings, workshops, and team challenges like the AISKF Warriors League. My goal is to empower everyone, from children to adults, to become fearless. If you are ready to put in the work, I am ready to teach. ## About Amit Khatri I am Amit. Martial arts is not a hobby for me; it is my life. I have spent over a decade training under Shihan Yokota to bring authentic Shotokan Karate and disciplined self-defence training to Mumbai, and I am ready to help you find your own warrior spirit.
