About The Academy

Traditional Karate, Taught With Discipline & Heart

Rajesh Joshi's Shorin Kempo Karate Academy is Surat's home for authentic, old-school karate — proudly affiliated with Shorin Kempo Kai Kan Karate. We believe karate is not a trend, it is a way of life passed down through generations of dedicated masters. Our mission is simple: teach karate the right way — rooted in tradition, discipline, respect, and real self-defense skills, not just belts and badges.

Every class blends classical Kata (forms), Kumite (sparring), Kihon (basics), and traditional dojo etiquette, so students don't just learn moves — they build character, confidence, focus, and lifelong physical fitness.

  • Authentic, traditional Shorin Kempo Kai Kan Karate curriculum
  • Structured belt (Kyu & Dan) grading system
  • Separate batches for kids, teens, and adults
  • Focus on discipline, respect, and mental strength
  • Practical self-defense for real-life situations
