Meet Kyoshi Dady Kassim Ramadhani — 7th Dan Black Belt, Shihan, and founder of the Tanzania Martial Arts Association. Leading his international dojo headquarters in Texas, USA, and bridging 35 years of combat discipline with the majestic wilderness of Kilimanjaro and the Serengeti.
Starting his journey in 1987, Kyoshi Dady Kassim has risen to become East Africa’s foremost martial arts master and an international leader now directing training from his dojo headquarters in Texas, USA. His teachings transcend physical combat: they are blueprints for dignity, mental tranquility, and self-reliance.
From training police units and military defense forces to guiding international martial artists on expeditions to Mount Kilimanjaro and the Serengeti, his teachings combine deep technical purity with an open heart for community upliftment.
Each style serves a unique facet of human empowerment — from classical Japanese Katas to modern tactical survival.
The deep foundation since 1987. Kihon, Kata, and Kumite taught with spiritual and physiological exactness across his Texas headquarters and international network.
High-intensity footwork, defensive head movement, and devastating striking power to build world-class reaction speeds and physical conditioning.
Certified under FIMA East Africa Representative Master Jean Bruneau Laurette. Real-world threat defense, situational awareness, and de-escalation.
Trained under 10th Dan Hanshi Shalom Avitan (Israel). Trusted by military reserve units, national police, and executive security teams.
Why train inside ordinary walls when you can practice Katas overlooking the snow-capped summit of Mount Kilimanjaro, or focus your breath amidst the sunlit savannas of the Serengeti?
Kyoshi Dady Kassim curates tailor-made cultural, safari, and training journeys for international martial artists, travelers, and teams. From national parks to Zanzibar’s turquoise beaches, you experience Tanzania from an authentic insider perspective.
"To truly understand martial arts, you must commit yourself fully and anchor everything in discipline."
Whether training directly at the Texas dojo headquarters, organizing security instruction, or planning an unforgettable martial arts holiday in Tanzania — Kyoshi Dady welcomes you.
