THE Japan Karate Association Bahrain staged a belt examination session at its Dogo in Habitat Garden, near Jannusan roundabout.
To obtain certification for each rank, members must fulfil the certification requirements and complete the testing procedure. Testing - or grading - is carried out by a panel of instructors.
JKA is the heir to the Shotokan Karate tradition, and is officially approved by the Japanese government as an association of members (Shadan Hojin) for the promotion of karate based on the ancient tradition of Bushido - the way of the Samurai.
Its training and belt ranking system are recognised worldwide. JKA Bahrain was established in 2006 by Sensei Ehab, the chief instructor.
