Khushnoor & Kamal Jijina

(MMA Fighters, Judo Coaches, Personal Fitness & Health Consultants)

Dharavi, Mumbai

Self Defence

Khushnoor & Kamal are not your average couple: both have multiple black belts and are skilled in a variety of Martial Arts, including Judo, Karate, Taekwondo, Jiujutsu, Muay Thai and Krav Maga.   While Kamal is a State, National & Commonwealth Judo Champion, Khushnoor is a National Karate, Judo & MMA (amongst others!) National Champion who trains not only the Mumbai Police, but Force One - Mumbai's Specialized Counterterrorism Unit.  Husband and wife both also excel as personal health and fitness consultants. Being that social causes are close to their heart (they have trained many street children from Grant Road, Colaba, Dongri & Bandra in the Martial Arts - many of whom are now instructors themselves), they jumped at the chance to fulfill the Hamaara Sapna beneficiaries request to learn Self Defense.  The trainer demonstrated different moves that the beneficiaries tried to learn which could come handy to them in the future. Trying their best, they tried to overcome mental and physical barriers to follow the trainer and master the moves. The spirit of never say no coud be seen in the efforts they made to make this a fruitful session for them.
