JKS ETHIOPIA: THE HOME OF SHOTOKAN EXCELLENCE
“JKS Ethiopia is the premier organization dedicated to advancing the art of Shotokan Karate in Ethiopia. Led by Director Hailemichael Assefa (Dudikoff), our center integrates traditional karate with modern neuro-physiological science and the scientific art of ‘Kokyu’ (breathing). Having recently secured historic bronze medals at the JKS World Championship in Tokyo, we have proven our excellence on the global stage. Our mission is to build a generation defined by discipline, physical strength, and scientific mastery through the true spirit of Karate.”
FOUNDER & General Directorate
“Sensei Hailemichael, a long-time coach of the Ethiopian National Karate Team, has left an enduring footprint on the growth of Shotokan Karate in Ethiopia. Notably, he is a two-time champion in Miami, USA (2024 & 2025).”
“At JKS Ethiopia, we recognize that true mastery comes from a balanced mind and body. Beyond physical training, we offer comprehensive Psychological Preparedness and Mental Health Education designed to build resilient and focused athletes. By bridging the gap between traditional Shotokan principles and modern neuro-physiological research, we address the psychological well-being of our members. Our curriculum includes specialized training on the Neuro-Physical connection and ‘Kokyu’ science, ensuring our students are mentally prepared to face challenges both on the mat and in their daily lives.”

Since 2008, when our organization was in its infancy as a local club, Rohan Marley has stood by us with both financial support and invaluable vision. For the past 18 years, his consistent moral and financial contributions have been the driving force behind the global milestones we celebrate today. His role in promoting the art of Karate and integrating it with Ethiopian values is a legacy that will be vibrantly recorded in our history.
Rohan Marley’s Vision and the Future of JKS Ethiopia
His long-term commitment has been the backbone of our modernization, enabling us to implement advanced scientific training methods, including Neuro-Physical and Kokyu techniques. Inspired by Rohan’s philanthropy and his profound love for Ethiopia, we are more determined than ever to elevate the JKS Ethiopia brand on the world stage and bring further honor to our nation.
“History is built on strong foundations and loyal friendships.”
