Experience: 

During a brief stay in Istanbul in 1975. l started training by Bushido Sport Center Turkish instructors in Istanbul to learn Karate directly from the professional senseis.l have been training Japanese Marshall Arts; judo, Karate, Jiu-jitsu for 32 years of hard work in Turkey. l have gained many achievements ,and qualified as a black belt 5th Dan in jiu-jitsu and Karate by Turkish Amateur Wado-Kai Organization.(TAWKO)  

I am a member of Educational committee of Turkey Karate Federation, Trainer of Turkish National Karate Team and a National Referee of Turkey. I own a Karate training centre in Istanbul and the Assistant Chairman of TAWKO(Turkey Amateur Wado-Ryu Karate Organization which is a unique Organization that represents Turkey in abroad. This federation is also a member of the European Wado-Ryu (FEW). 

He has joined to seminars of Sensei T.Arakawa and T.Kono

In addition to those there, in Istanbul, are also other Wado-Ryu training centres and sport clubs in a different areas of Turkey, such as Antalya, Mersin, Canakkale (Gallipoli) which l was the only one who introduced karate in this city firstime, now l have there 5 different training centres since 1998.There are some pupils who have become Turkey Champions, Balkan, Europe and World Champions.

Jiu-jitsu is not very common in the sport environment. l am trying to make this sport widespread I believe in that l can help people to be aware of jiu-jitsu. l have improved my knowledge when l have been abroad by visiting instructors who are professional on this subject. l keep preparing sport activities to introduce this style and made great effort to spread Japanese martial arts. Activities to introduce this sport have been carried out successfully and we have been invited to many cities and universities. Due to the economic situation of our country, law and regulations in turkey, a federation couldn’t be founded. The required law has not been passed through parliament yet. Especially those who are doing amateur sports have great difficulty in meeting their needs. I have been offering Jiu-jitsu courses in Canakkale and Edirne.Furthermore, Jiu-Jitsu is practised in Izmir.

Now l require your help in order to make Japanese Martial Arts Jiu-Jitsu and Wado-Ryu karate activities widespread. Above all my aim is to help people to be aware of Japanese martial arts and its philosophy. Thus there will be more popular and be enjoyed by more people.

 In order to achieve my targets l would be appreciate if you could keep in touch with me?

Yours faithfully
