About Sensei Soke Henri Eksteen – Founder of Eksteen Fighting Crow Karate & MMA International

I have been running my own karate organization since 1999, combining my passion for martial arts with my background as a businessman and amateur bodybuilder. My karate journey began in 1979, and from that very first step onto the dojo floor, I have never looked back.

Today, I proudly hold the rank of 10th Dan Black Belt, a recognition earned through decades of dedication, discipline, and continuous learning. Over the years, I have achieved numerous international accolades, representing my art and proudly sharing it with students across the world.

Beyond traditional karate, I also specialize in:

• Practical Self-Defence Training – equipping students with real-world protection skills.

• Cage Fighting & MMA Preparation – developing fighters to perform at their peak inside the cage.

Through Eksteen Fighting Crow Karate & MMA International, my mission is to inspire, guide, and empower every student—whether they are stepping onto the mat for the first time, seeking fitness and discipline, or preparing for competitive success.

For me, karate is not just a sport—it is a way of life.
