About KIME

A Legacy Built
Since 1969

Seigo-Kai Karate-Do was founded in 1969. For over five decades it has carried authentic Japanese Karate-Do across Asia. In 1994, Shihan Tarun Chakrabarty established the Delhi Academy of Martial Arts, beginning three decades of grassroots coaching that would produce 200+ black belts, 25+ international medalists, and the only Indian karateka ever to represent India at the Tokyo Olympics.
