ABOUT SENSEI CHANDRASEKHAR

Fierce, but kind. Strong, but gentle. Powerful yet humble. These are the very few traits of our beloved Sensei Chandrasekhar.
Sensei Chandrasekhar was born into this world of karate and has been meticulously growing up with it for the past 43 years of his experience. Sensei started karate in the year 1980, just at the age of six. And ever since Ssensei has dedicated his life towards it and has proved his dedication by owning the National Championship 6 times, consecutively. Sensei has been a coach for over 150 National Champions and has represented India globally on numerous occasions.
