The journey began in 1999 with the prestigious Japan Karate Association (JKA). Displaying early promise and dedication, our founder achieved his Black Belt 1st Dan in 2005, followed by his 2nd Dan in 2007.

Parallel to his civilian achievements, he served in the Sri Lanka Air Force from 2008 to 2019, where he proudly captained the Air Force Karate Team.
