GrassrootsDevelopment Programs gels with KarateCare & Human Values
Martial Arts Brief: Kancho Deena Naidu Page 2 S O L O M Z
Kancho Deena Naidu was born in the year
1949 in South Africa. His mother gave birth to
him prematurely. Kancho graduated in the
Japan Karate Do College in Tokyo in 1976, 6th
in the world under Grandmaster Gogen Yama-
guchi and became the only one South African
to have done so in the world. “ Gogen sensei
took me in as a son”, he said.
Kancho lives in Australia in the suburb of Syd-
ney where he runs an international organiza-
tion called NKA International Goshin Karate-
Do. His teaching does not involve competitions
or tournaments of any kind as he believes that
this is the breeding ground for ego and com-
petitions he believes does very little to im-
prove character or help people defend them-
selves. He says karate has three parts: physi-
cal for body, mental for the mind and spiritual
for the heart.
His involvement in spirituality began in child-
hood as he has been a seeker of truth for the
major part of his life. His writing of books sud-
denly started on a trip to India in the 1988 and
grew drawing a worldwide audience. He has
been called as guest speaker in many coun-
tries. In Japan he addressed a crowd of over
3500 people, and many hundreds in other
countries. He also spoke in New York a couple
of years ago. He took part in recently in a
movie in Hollywood called “Justice for Hire”.
Kancho taught the Australian Army for two
years. He was also a national coordinator for
“Vision Australia” helping people with sight
impairment. He was nominated ‘Australian of
the Year”. He has now produced many books
in hard copies: Discovering Martial Art, Bu-
doka-True Spiritual Warriors, Poems of the
Spiritual Heart. His audio books are “Goshin-
The Secret Revealed”, “The Adventure of
Gugu”, “My Dear Driver”, My Dear Child”,
“My Dear Student”. Kancho started an organi-
zation called “Sanctuary 108” and have as-
sisted many people with depression. He has
saved many lives over many years and wants
to continue this effort on a world scale.
He has now started NKA International to
unify the teaching of Budo to bring mar-
tial artists together for the upliftment of
human beings. To share human values in
a program called “KarateCare”. The
human values are Truth, Love, Peace,
Right Conduct and Non Violence.
NKA comprise of teachers globally for the
pure purpose of reigniting Traditional Karat-
eDo which had lost its way for decades. Teach-
ers have come from different countries with
their clear objective of making a difference, as
in their hearts know KarateDo had taken a
wrong direction of making it a game. We have
teachers from many countries and we will
continue to grow.
Teachers in our team are determined to improve
life skills of students by bringing back good
discipline, better self control training, education
in human values, improvised character develop-
ment programs, confidence development train-
ing and the true art of KarateDo. As we believe
KarateDo comprises of three aspects Physical
( Body), Mental (Mind) and Spiritual ( Life).
NKA is a brand new Karate organization that
focuses on the pure essence of traditional karate
that embraces human values. We are deter-
mined to lift the character of our students
through our KarateCare Program. The intensity
of karate practice does not just lie on the physi-
cal practice it is also that of the nature of the
person who practices the art. If bad people
practice karate no one is safe. If good people
practice the art everyone is safe. Our aim is to
convert the people with bad ways to become
good and those who are good to become better.
Goshin Kan has been working very hard on
many aspects of KarateDo since it inception. In
our schools we have implemented various ideas
that has had outstanding results.
Parents and students are very happy
with our KarateCare programs as this
has been improving our students’
character in all avenues of their lives.
We have safe ways of physical train-
ing, great ways of mental training and
life skills training that works. The radi-
ance of what we do will be moving to
many all around the world and to-
gether with the international teachers
lift life for all our students.
The prime objective of NKA Interna-
tional is to band together like minded
teachers world wide who desire to
impart the pure essence of traditional
karate do disciplines and values to all
its students. Every school within NKA
International will have its own knowl-
edge base of style or system of impart-
ing physical techniques. This opera-
tion of each school operates under its
own medium of understanding in
terms of physical technique. This will
allow each to have the freedom to
operate as they seem fit as long as
there is no cause for concern of what
happens to the students physically or
mentally. We accept all, into NKA
International immaterial of style or
system. We believe there is not one
way of executing technique however,
in terms of disciplines and values we
have a united format under one ban-
ner.
Our system is non competitive as we
find there is a growing interest in non
tournament world wide. Many have
asked Kancho Deena Naidu to create
such an organization for many years
but he was reluctant to do so as he
thought it was best to keep this only
within his own organization called
Goshin Kan. This has been working
superbly and the transformations of
many students were beyond all expec-
tations. This together with the growing
need for change in the world inspired
Kancho to have a world organization.
Kancho Deena Naidu has been a hard-
ened loyal student of Gogen Yamagu-
chi sensei for many decades. He
choose the path of his teacher who was
very happy at this and that was teach-
ing karate for defense only with spe-
cial emphasis on human development.
The other objectives of developing
character through Education in Human
Values. His teacher was proud of him
while he was alive and I am sure he
will continue to be happy with from the
“Botswana seminar is very special. I will
do my best for those who are sincere and
who respond. I would like everyone to
respond quicker and I will give my
heart”.

cially trained to impart this knowledge to
students.

ganization.
With that in his heart he has started to put to-
gether NKA International. It is hard to find an
organization in this present day that will em-
brace all styles and systems into one. This is the
objective of NKA. KarateDo has had it separa-
tion from the land of its birth Okinawa, and then
to Japan it grew into many more divisions. It is
now numbered in the hundreds as it traveled
around the world with many styles and systems .
For the first time there is an organization that
embraces “All as One”.
NKA has a system called KarateCare which was
developed to build character in students.
KarateCare is based on fives human values as its
knowledge base. These values are Truth, Love,
Peace, Right Conduct and Non Violence. It is
a special program of learning and developing

Please fill in the registration form as in our web
site if you keen to Join. Please also feel free to
telephone Kancho directly on +61 405000366
Sydney time between the hours of 9am to 5pm.
Please also note grade, style and system matters
not, what matters is the heart to help bring
change to the world through Budo.
Our Team
This team comprises of teachers within and from
different states in Australia as well as from a
number of lands. All are experienced teachers.
We will soon have them on our web site NKA
International.
Kancho Deena Naidu
He has been a hardened loyal student of Gogen
Sensei for many decades. He choose the path of
his teacher who was very happy at this and that
was teaching karate for defence only with spe-
cial emphasis on human development. The
other objectives of developing character
through Education in Human Values. His teacher
was proud of him while he was alive and I am
sure he will continue to be happy with from the
celestial planes he resides.
Now a light is about to ignite that shows it true
picture. The picture is that strong people in
uniforms only use it to defend but offer love to
the enemies. Many seem to grasp this and say
Wow! It is only the courageous who can do
this. The weak are the violent. The weak are
those whose agendas is to settle difference
with violence. In NKA students learn the sim-
ple techniques of avoidance at all costs, if
unavoidable then only physical defense will
be necessary. Such is the philosophy and
teachings of NKA.

I want to come to Australia and practice for a
while. Certainly for your African tour, invite

I am getting some support but we need spon-
sors to get this organised. I am happy to teach
but we need people to organise training fa-
cilities. I speak to my student in Cape Town.
Cape Town is near. . .Do you already have an
Africa rep under which one has to go
through? I want to be your direct new student.
I am looking for a representative.
To become a rep I must first seek blessings

I have been robbed. I feel this huge
emptiness in me that needs to be filled.
Hanshi gave me the 'empty calabash and
tasked me to fill it up. . .
I will help you fill it up. life is a journey
Sensei, we all on this journey. you lucky
you have the calabash. others have to
find it first and then fill it up.
It will be an honor. Osu!
Thank you for sharing. His journey be-
gins in another dimension. But he will
always be with you.
Thank you.
09/15/2015 9:44PM
Good evening!
I did ask, can you kindly share on the
concept of 'Hihyo' and its use in dojo
instruction.
It is well needed as a teacher and stu-
dent. Criticism is well needed. It is im-
portant also whose knowledge you re-
ceive. Teacher and student must be
humble to receive (Hihyo) Guidance.
Revisiting basics, adjustments etc is
important if that is what you asking.
09/16/2015 6:06AM
Indeed. Thank you.
10/07/2015 6:00PM
My teacher passed on before he could
grade me 7th Dan. I am in my mandatory
2yr induction,last 3 months. I was to
complete grading in this last quarter of
2015. No one grade me in our ryuha as
they are low in Dan rank. Kindly advice.
10/07/2015 8:01PM
Love it. Thank you for sharing Sensei.
11/02/2015 1:00PM
I have since filled and submitted the online
registration form. i look forward to confirma-
tion of our membership. Osu!
Dear Sensei we have received your applica-
tion. tomorrow is our meeting. I just arrived
back from India. we will forward you a confir-
mation immediately after our meeting. sorry
about the delay as i was away. warm regards
Kancho
11/02/2015 3:01PM
Osu! I have further instructed our Botswana,
Lesotho and Zimbabwe branches and Sandan
upwards and dojo to register and be part of
this Great Development.
11/05/2015 9:15AM
My teacher passed on and we buried 12 Sep-
tember 2015. I am in my 2nd year of my 7th
Dan grade induction. He was to grade and
confer me the 7th Dan anytime this year. I
wish that this grading be done within and by
the NKA to help fulfil my teachers wish. He
did confer Dai Soke status, making me inheri-
tor of Oikado. I need your guidance and ad-
vice. Some organizations are ready to grade
me. I am not after the belt, the 7th Dan grad-
ing was a Spiritual call on my teacher having
been his loyal disciple for 30yrs.
11/05/2015 11:56AM
Dear Teacher of the art. I am willing to do this
for you. Ours is not only a physical grading it
is deeper, it is about spiritual development
as well. I can issue the grading immediately,
but I have not met you personally which i
would sincerely like to do. If you want to
obtain a grading from someone else you
could. But as you say it is not the grade you
after. You can call your self this level until i
see and examine you personally and then
make it official. Your teacher would have
been happy to have given you this grade and
it is sad that he did not and he passed away
before the task was complete. So I will say
take this level as a blessing from your
teacher and I will be in your country next
year to officially ordain you. If anyone ques-
tions you can use me as giving you that level.
Unless you can find sponsors to sponsor me
to your country to this before the year ends. I
would be happy to do this also.
Great Osu! I am happy and through you my
Spirit moves knowing,I have found a teacher
in you that will help me fill up the calabash I
was left with. Our meeting in person and to
be officially ordained by you in Botswana
when we open the NKA Intl chapter here will
be a great honor. . .
11/06/2015 2:11PM
As noted, I would like to visit for a 14 Day to 1
month training and to learn more abt NKAI
ahead of your May visit to Botswana. Kindly
send me an Letter of Invitation and Admission
for Internship. I need it to secure sponsorship.
Osu!
I will send email soon inviting you.

Word’s of Wisdom by Kancho Traditional KarateDo gives You: Values on how to be as a super human being with divine qualities. An art that is the formula for success in everything you do. Mastery of body and mind to overcome fear, reckless think-ing and violent behavior. Enlightenment of who you are in the true sense. Defense of great skill to protect yourself. To become fearless no matter the challenges. An understanding that Failure is never a defeat but a means of learning. Equips the mind with great knowledge of the art. A learning of how to heal yourself and others. To use the higher regions of the mind. To equip the store age unit of mind called sub conscious mind with right information. To overcome the ego and become a true being of service. To be no violent, non aggressive, non judgmental. ( what I write hear in not a judgment but divine fact). To learn about Ki, Chi, Prana, Chakras, astral, mental, causal and the power of the mind, heart and real focus.
Kancho and I met on Facebook on 21 August 2015 and we quickly connected by a common vibration energy
that resonated well with each other. He was later to
inform me he sensed an aura of positive energy and good with me. In September my teacher of 30 years
passed on. I had to search for a teacher who will offer
me and our members at Oikado continuity without need to rush us into converting and changing our system and
style to theirs.
I said to Kancho “ I am left with an empty
calabash. Like a void, an empty calabash..”
Kancho said, “You lucky you are left with
something. If you allow me, I will help you
fill it up..”.
I am happy to share with you my teacher,

A Better World is Our
Theme.
Karate is the start. We are powerful con-
tributes towards world peace.
The whole concept of Human Values is to
improve the character of the karate com-
munity. it is important for the students to
learn to value others, appreciate and ac-
cept people for who they are. As we all are
one humanity and must develop human
dignity of regard and respect towards. The
purpose of it all is avoidance rejecting,
belittling and insulting others. Taking care
of others rushing to help others in distress
is the first step forward, even where ten-
sion exists. It is so easy to ignore, looking
the other way, avoiding and thinking it is
not my problem.
Part of our human dignity is to love and we
do this with service and care. That is the
reason I called our program KarateCare.
Saying sorry if one is wrong, asking for
forgiveness if one had made a mistake in
the past. Favoring reconciliation due to
misunderstanding. Our program is about
Listening. I say to the students this means
focus on learning through listening. Listen
to what others are saying. How do you
know about others, you do this by paying
attention and be kind by lending your ear?
Today in Human life many are insensitive
and cold towards the feelings of others.
We need to care more, offer support. We
share human values daily, we tell stories
about our great heroes of human life. To-
day children are looking for role models
and mentors. They turn to starts, sports
champions etc. and many do not conduct
them self in a proper way. So we as karate
teachers want to develop students in a way
they become role models for others. By
doing this the world becomes better.
What makes us human is our inner nature of
goodness and righteousness. We as a karate
organization want to bring the best out of stu-
dents. We as teachers and as an organization
think about what are the attributes that consti-
tutes a good human person. It is kindness,
forgiveness, tolerance, compassion and love.
We want our students to develop good natures
so that they can integrate into the society or
community much better. I believe we are all
born with a divine nature and through associa-
tion and influences this can becomes good or
bad. The mind does not know how to discrimi-
nate; it is the learning that does this. And it
improves our conscious state to become better
in our ways.
We commit to serving humanity through a re-
turn to human values and we have chosen our
vehicle as KarateDo. NKA International has
been launched on 23 October 2015 and is
open for worldwide membership and affiliation
by teachers of the art to help spread and teach
the message. This ia our promise.

The OIKADO Martial Arts School is proud
to present its Grassroots Development
Program for 2010 – 2020. It is a result of
work by the OIKADO National Executive
Council and Technical Board and has em-
braced all stakeholders of the school. This
third phase of the program is set in the back-
ground of unprecedented unity and drive
demonstrated in the first phase (1995-2000)
and the second phase (2006-2010) to take
karate to the public. Recent developments in
Oikado Black Belts cadre resolve is to speak
and act in unity and also paramount to de-
liver martial arts/karate practice to the pub-
lic in a coordinated and structured way.
Crucial to the program was the appointment of a
strong and active National Technical Board headed by Kyoshi Moses Topsoil Kgosibodiba, the Presi-
dent of the School, Shihan Gaabadzo Moseki,
Chairman Technical Board. Plus eight (8) active black belts of instructorship status drawn across the
breath and length of Botswana. The Grassroots
Development Program sits alongside and
personal, educational, careers, emotional,
physical and spiritual dimensions.
The school aims to achieve these goals and in
2001-2005 & 2006-2014 we embarked on the
re-engineering exercise and increased the
number of instructors in order to expand the
program throughout the country.
The results have been dramatic, primarily
because enthusiasm for martial arts practice
and training does exist in local communities.
Martial arts/karate offers a genuine and safe
alternative and augments other performing
arts and sporting codes.
Its popularity is growing in leaps and bounds
at secondary schools, colleges and univer-
sity. It has attracted international interest.
Funds’ permitting our wish is to cascade the
program down to primary school children, to
rural communities near and remote.
Osu!
the re-engineering (1995-2005) and (2006-
2009) phases of the school.
The purpose of the program is to demon-
strate how martial arts/karate at grassroots
level will proceed from now and where it
will be by 2020.It underpins the school’s
application for funding from your good insti-
tution.
It will also serve as a valuable tool for moni-
toring and evaluating achievements against
milestones laid down. Vital to the program
success is the need to regularly review and
where appropriate make adjustments.
The Grassroots Development Program
seeks to embrace and build the key compo-
nent required to achieve Youth Develop-
ment. At the core is the desire to enable
individuals to experience as positive, fun
and free atmosphere of martial arts/karate
practice and training and go on to fulfill
their true potential in the arts and across
various areas of their development: social,

Page 11 S O L O M Z
Thank you for taking time to read and discuss
the Schools Karate Motivation Training Pro-
gram for Children and Young Teens.
Kyoshi Moses Kgosibodiba, a world class
karate trainer and instructor is now offering
Karate Motivation Training program to chil-
dren in Botswana and SADC member coun-
tries.
The program beneficiaries are children and
teens at primary (5-12yrs), junior (13-15yrs),
and senior (16-21 yrs) schools.
The program teaches martial arts/karate,
motivation and discipline to students and
have resulted in students who are fit and
much disciplined.
As every teacher knows, the benefits of a
disciplined student are enormous as they
study well at school and at home. Do and
submit their homework on time and prepare
for tests and examination in time.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The program also teaches self-confidence
and will highlight the dangers of smoking,
drug abuse and alcohol.
We believe that fit and disciplined students
will benefit the students themselves, the
school system, teachers and parents and the
community and society in which they reside.
This program takes students away from lazi-
ness, smoking, drinking and gets them in-
volved and motivated to become better stu-
dents. No other program offers such benefits!
The program will be taught and presented
by Mr. Moses Kgosibodiba, who has over 35
years experience as a world class instructor.
By this submission we wish to roll out the
program to primary, junior and senior secon-
dary schools. Funds permitting it will be our
delight for every school to be involved with
us through this program.
The program is part of the Oikado Grassroots

Hello Nikolai. I was among the 3 who graded
Shodan in 1989. Kindly share any recollection
of the UB dojo then. I am running a monthly
newsletter. Your email so that I send you
back issues. Great Osu and Pula!
At the time I was captain of the St Joseph's
College Karate team the Dojo was south east
of the UB dinning hall towards the stadium
side. On that particular tournament day there
were 28 fighters I was among the top 3 fight-
ers who survived the knockout, if am not
mistaken among the three who graded was a
tall guy by the surname Madibela who was a
trainee teacher then and you if my memory
serves me well you should be the guy who
went into grading with an injured rib arising
from a tournament of Southern African Uni-
versities! My email addresses are
[email protected],ndlovu.nicholas@yaho
o.com/ [email protected]
Indeed true, Moses topsoil Kgosibodiba. .
.Thank you. Jonah Madibela with arms of
steel. Any memories about our sensei then
Hanshi Dr. Patrick Makgabenyana,RIP.
Any chance you have photos from then?
Very much so, I remember he kept on saying
to you this is your black belt pointing at the
brick to be broken! Despite the pain you
were in from your rib injury you closed your
eyes, meditated momentarily and broke the
brick to pieces! On that day I learnt some-
thing about inner strength!
I do have o photo from that tournament
though it is a bit far from where I am but will
post it to you one day!
about an hour ago
Thank you very much. Great recollections
indeed! Good morning!

ety of styles, systems and schools.

opment. This requirement is mandatory

gionally and internationally. These attach-
ments are intended to offer a combination of:

OIKADO 4. An option to train and be graded
where possible 5. Rank recognition

Profile
A results oriented teacher of Humanities, prac-
titioner and teacher of the martial arts with
good interpersonal, communication, research
and analytical skills. Ranko Shihan is a good
planner, organizer, decision-maker and pre-
senter. This has been proven by his success as
a teacher in Junior and Senior Secondary
School, College Lecturer and of the martial arts
for the past thirty years as evidenced by the
number of many students he has produced
some of whom are experienced black belts and
teachers of the art as well. We affectionately
call him Ninja at Oikado given that he likes
training late at night. Full of stealth and a firm
believer of “secrecy in silence and silence in
secrecy”. He was among the first three(3) to
grade Shodan in Oikado. An formidable kata
performer with impeccable agility during is
prime years. Ninja and I and Jonah Madibela
Shihan planted the Oikado seed when we went
into schools as teachers wherein we introduced
Oikado.

Martial Arts Brief & Profile: Lions’ Den Dojo Group Botswana
Shihan Ranko Boniface Motlalekgosi
Kancho Deena Naidu was born in the year 1949 in South Africa. His mother gave birth to him prematurely. Kancho graduated in the Japan
Karate Do College in Tokyo in 1976, 6th in the world under Grandmaster
Gogen Yamaguchi and became the only one South African to have done so in the world. “ Gogen sensei took me in as a son”, he said.
Kancho lives in Australia in the suburb of Sydney where he runs an inter-national organization called NKA International Goshin Karate-Do. His
teaching does not involve competitions or tournaments of any kind as he
believes that this is the breeding ground for ego and competitions he be-lieves does very little to improve character or help people defend them-
selves. He says, karate has three parts: physical for body, mental for the
mind and spiritual for the heart.
His involvement in spirituality began in childhood as he has been a seeker
of truth for the major part of his life. His writing of books suddenly started on a trip to India in the 1988 and grew drawing a worldwide audience. He
has been called as guest speaker in many countries. In Japan he addressed
a crowd of over 3500 people, and many hundreds in other countries. He also spoke in New York a couple of years ago. He took part in recently in
a movie in Hollywood called “Justice for Hire”.
Kancho taught the Australian Army for two years. He was also a national
coordinator for “Vision Australia” helping people with sight impairment.
He was nominated ‘Australian of the Year”. He has now produced many
Books in hard copies: Discovering Martial Art, Budoka-True Spiritual Warriors, Poems of the Spirituaal Heart. His audio books are “Goshin-The Secret Re-
vealed”, “The Adventure of Gugu”, “My Dear Driver”, My Dear Child”, “My
Dear Student”. Kancho started an organization called “ Sanctuary 108” and have assisted many people with depression. He has saved many lives over many years
and wants to continue this effort on a world scale.
He has now started NKA International to unify the teaching of Budo to bring
martial artists together for the upliftment of human beings. To share human values
in a program called “KarateCare”. The human values are Truth, Love, Peace, Right Conduct and Non Violence.

I have been robbed. I feel this huge emptiness in me that needs to be filled. Han-
shi gave me the 'empty calabash and tasked me to fill it up. . .
09/07/2015 1:56PM
I will help you fill it up. Life is a journey Sensei, we all on this journey. You lucky
you have the calabash. Others have to find it first and then fill it up.
It will be an honor. Osu!
09/13/2015 3:27PM
Thank you for sharing. His journey begins in another dimension. But he will always
be with you.
Thank you.

Good evening! I did ask, can you kindly share on the concept of 'Hihyo' and its use
in dojo instruction.
It is well needed as a teacher and student. Criticism is well needed. It is important
also whose knowledge you receive. Teacher and student must be humble to re-
ceive (Hihyo) Guidance. Revisiting basics, adjustments etc is important if that is
what you asking.
09/16/2015 6:06AM
Indeed. Thank you.
