Sensei Sudhir Balli began karate at age five. He struggled with confidence and was bullied as a child. Karate changed that. It became transformative, not just in self-defence, but in who he became.
He opened his dojo at a young age, driven by a simple conviction: karate had changed his life, and it could change the lives of other children too. Lionmode was born.
