No shortcuts
Two simple words, one principle. Two words, 12 years for a black belt, more then a 100 black belts, 300 fighters, thousands of techniques on our wiki.
We train the way we like, completely absorbing ourselves in Japanese martial tradition while fearlessly researching. We don’t care about politics, political values, belt systems or Mc-dojos – what matters to us is dojo time, heart and earth, that’s it: One principle, two words.
This site is our dedication to the warrior culture, our respect to you.

The Academy’s headquarters is situated in Tel Aviv, and another office is in Jerusalem.
It is not easy to say what makes the Akban community so robust; is it the Israeli situation, the top notch fitness? Who knows? We believe part of it is the special kind of students who choose training with us, students that get involved in incredible achievements and continue training for a lifetime. As we said, we don’t know for sure, but we love the atmosphere, you can catch the scent of it in many of the images in our galleries.
There are never guarantees that we’ll make a warrior from every new student, the only guarantee is that whatever we do, we do it with our extensive knowledge, our heart, taking no shortcuts, the way we see it.
