From local dojos to world championship podiums, see what happens when discipline meets training. This is a look at our SSKKA family in action.

A moment of immense pride for our SSKKA family and for India. Our student, Dhanvita Vasu Moger, is crowned the new World Champion at the WAKO Youth World Kickboxing Championships 2024 in Hungary, as our national anthem plays. This is the level of excellence we strive for.

This is what true dedication looks like. Our young champion, Mahira Talekar, proudly displays her double gold medals from the Asia Cup. We are incredibly proud of her achievement, and grateful to her parents for their unwavering support.

Precision in action. Here, one of our kickboxing students executes a powerful high kick during a competitive match. Our training focuses on developing the speed, technique, and confidence needed to perform effectively under pressure.

Discipline is the foundation of everything we teach. Our young karate students at OLPS High School practice their stances in perfect unison, learning focus and respect that extends far beyond the dojo.

We believe in empowering everyone with the skills to feel safe and confident. This video shows a glimpse of our kickboxing self-defense workshop, where we teach practical, real-world techniques to female students at the Rohidas Patil Institute.

Focus and form on full display. A student demonstrates her kata during an SSKKA belt exam, a crucial step in her journey toward mastering Shito Ryu karate. Each exam is a test of skill, spirit, and perseverance.

The bond between a coach and student is built on trust and hard work. Here, our students engage in a kickboxing drill, learning from experienced coaches who have shaped national and international champions.

Hear it from our champions. After securing 18 medals at the Maharashtra Cup, our students share their experiences. Their success is a direct result of teamwork, discipline, and following the path we lay out for them.

About Featured

Training at SSKKA is not about learning flashy moves for show. Whether you are at our centers in Sion, Chembur, or Lalbaug, you will spend your first few weeks focusing on fundamental stances, footwork, and conditioning. We believe speed, stamina, and strength are the non-negotiables of martial arts, and we drill these basics until they become muscle memory.

Our Approach to Martial Arts

We teach Shito Ryu karate and competitive kickboxing, but our real goal is character development. When you join our dojo, you are not just signing up for a class. You are joining a community that has been training students since 1999.

What you will learn with us:

  • Shito Ryu Karate: We start with Kihon (basics) and Kata (forms) to build your foundation. It is repetitive, physical, and requires patience. You will learn to move with purpose.
  • WAKO-Standard Kickboxing: For those looking to compete, we follow global WAKO standards. This means real drills, controlled sparring, and rigorous conditioning to get you ready for the ring.
  • Self-Defense: Our workshops are open to anyone. We teach practical, real-world techniques that do not require elite strength, just the right strategy.

Why Train at SSKKA?

We train everyone. From 5-year-olds taking their first steps on a mat to adults looking for fitness, and students with special needs. We have seen our students grow from shy children into confident medal winners at state and national levels. Our training is physically demanding—prepare to sweat, prepare to work hard, and expect to be corrected. But if you show up with commitment, we will help you get there. Our dojos in Mumbai are places where discipline is the standard, not the exception.
