YKKF-India Events

At Y.K.K.F. (India) we have programs for the full family : men, women and children. We offer the very best instructions, low monthly rates, great teacher to students ratio and Chief Instructor Sensei Jehangir Shroff teaches all students and classes.

Children’s Karate : At Y.K.K.F.(India) , children are important. Sensei Shroff and his team of experienced, qualified, adult instructors teach all children in a disciplined, focused, respectful, learning environment. Learning and positive character development is our primary focus. Children have fun, learn correct technique, to believe in themselves, reach their goals and gain confidence.

Classes : A typical children’s Karate class starts off with a traditional opening ceremony which emphasizes proper Dojo etiquette and includes bowing, and mutual respect. After the opening ceremony, children perform warm-up exercises which develop all-around physical fitness (cardio, strength, & flexibility). Next, they are instructed in performing proper basics. This includes blocking techniques, punching techniques, striking techniques, kicking techniques, stances and footwork, breathing techniques, etc. After the basics, children perform authentic ancient Kata (forms) from Okinawa, Japan. After Kata training, children participate in sparring in a supervised, disciplined, structured, and safe environment. Periodically, children are also instructed in how to perform various falling and rolling techniques, throwing techniques and various self-defence techniques. An emphasis on behaviour and character development is always part of the curriculum.

Caring Instruction : It is very rare for a Head Instructor to personally teach children. Sensei Shroff cares and teaches all children and classes and does his utmost to accommodate everyone’s learning needs and to bring out the best performance and character of all of his students.

Benefits for Children : Traditional karate develops effective self-defence skills, physical fitness and positive character traits in children which includes confidence, discipline, self-esteem, respect for themselves and others, focused mind, paying attention, perseverance, a solid work ethic, a positive “I can do it” attitude, the confidence to say “no”to unhealthy peer pressure, personal motivation, how to work well and co-operate with others.
At Y.K.K.F.(India) we don’t just teach children the physical aspects of self-defence skills, we also teach and help children to develop a positive attitude throughout their life.

Adult Karate : At Y.K.K.F.(India), classes are geared for the serious study of Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate-Do and are conducted in a friendly traditional manner. Practical self-defence, all around physical fitness, and positive character development is the main focus. Teaching methods are also conducted traditionally and consist of knowledgeable instructions. Our teaching methods and standards are of the highest quality. As a result, our students are highly motivated, skilled practitioners, with high performance level who exhibit positive character traits.

Special Self-Defence Programme For Women : We have introduced Special Self Defence program for women in Mumbai. From a school going girl to a typical housewives or working girl anyone can learn a set of Defensive techniques specially selected and developed by our professionals. Besides all these techniques the part is to prepare the mind to be stable at all situations at all the times. that could be achieved by giving a brief theory. It has been observed that a persons with a strong body and excellent skills fails to defend themselves because their mind stops working in these kind of situations. it is very commonly seen in women. Let the women grow with a sense of security and self confidence, in the knowledge that what they have learnt, could one day help them save their lives.
