Arakan Martial Art® has also held several fundraises and raised over $32,000 to aid the children of Burma after cyclone Nargis in 2008.

Since 2015, we have built and sponsored two orphanages in Myanmar, with approximately 90 children in each orphanage.

As our club continues to grow, we will continue contributing and being involved with valuable community projects to help those in need.

“Success… is being able to wake up each and every morning knowing that you’re living your dream, being positively abundant in all areas of your life, knowing that your legacy is of joy and contribution.”

TESTIMONIALS



Arakan has helped Talia immensely.

It has given her discipline, greater confidence, focus and self-esteem. She now has greater awareness of bullies at her school and is assertive when required.

It has been the best activity that I have invested in for my child.



Amy, Mother of Talia

If you want something that is real world, out of the 'community hall' classroom and relevant, Arakan is the best investment you can make for your teen! I have seen my son's confidence, self awareness and ability grown with every session. I now know he is safe on the train and any building site where he works.
