A lineage, not just a dojo.
Modern Martial Arts Karate-Do Federation of India — established 1983 at Patratu, Jharkhand, India. Teaching Shotokan Karate through three generations of senseis.
Four decades on the mat.
MMAKF was founded in 1983 by Shihan Pramod Kumar Pathak at Patratu, Jharkhand. What began as a single training hall grew into an institutional federation — chartered state and district units, affiliated clubs, and structured karate programmes in schools and workplaces.
The federation has produced national champions and WKF-registered athletes and coaches — while never departing from its core: authentic Shotokan Karate-Do, transmitted the traditional way, one grading at a time. Every Dan grade it has awarded and still recognises is on the public Black Belt register, and any certificate it has issued can be checked against its records.
Today MMAKF trains students in the hombu dojo, through partner schools, and worldwide through its Online Academy — the same syllabus, the same standard, everywhere.
The five precepts.
Recited at the close of every class — the code every MMAKF student trains under.
From master to faculty.
Shotokan Karate-Do is the style the federation practises and examines today.
Senior technical authority.
Institutional achievements.
Words of warriors.
Sensei Dhiraj's kata classes transformed my technique completely. Training at MMAKF is different — the lineage, the discipline, the system. You feel it the moment you step on the mat.
As a parent, I was amazed how quickly my daughter's confidence grew under Sensei Sumitra Devi's women's program. MMAKF is truly a life-changing institution.
Begin your Karate-Do.
From one student to a school training hundreds, MMAKF delivers structured Shotokan through a national network. Tell the federation what you need and it goes to the unit that handles it.
- Say who the training is for An individual, a school, a university, a company, a government body or a community organisation. The federation asks different things of each.
- Answer what is needed to price it The same questions the training office would ask — roughly how many people, where you are, and what you want run. It saves as you go, so you can stop and come back to it.
- Keep a reference and a status link Your request reaches the training office against a reference, and you get a link that shows where it has actually got to.
Fees depend on what you need — the federation quotes against your own requirements rather than a price list. Would rather not use a form? Write to admin@mmakf.in with your institution, roughly how many people, and where you are.
