"From the risky combat of the streets to the harmonious discipline of the dojo."
The story is incomplete without the mention of Bruce Tegner, who after 48 years of studying Karate, Judo, Aikido, Kung-Fu, and Tai-Chi, invented JUKADO. This system was engineered specifically for "Street Fighting" efficiency.
In India, Hanshi Arvindbhai Rana embraced this "High-Risk, High-Impact" art under the guidance of Coach Hanifraj Sheikh. In June 1986, at Sector 20 Government School, Gandhinagar, the first class was born—not just to teach combat, but to build survival instinct.
"Shin-Gi-Tai: Mind, Technique, and Body."
Founded in 1940 by Master Hironori Otsuka, Wado-Kai is unique. Unlike other styles that rely on "Brute Force," Wado-Kai focuses on Taisabaki (Body shifting) to avoid an attack while simultaneously countering.
By 2006, our Federation fully integrated this "Way of Harmony." We moved away from the raw aggression of Jukado into the refined, intellectual combat of Wado-Kai, which is one of the four major Karate styles globally.
Hanshi Rana noticed a decline in moral values in society. Thus, the Federation's mission shifted: Karate became the medium, but Character became the goal.
Today, with 35+ Black Belt Instructors and 800,000 women trained, we stand as a testament to what a single man's vision can achieve for a nation's strength.
