We have held numerous community education programs including education week at Robina Primary School, sports activity program at Miami school, the Swell Festival and International Exchange student program at Helensvale High School, as well as hosting numerous free men’s and women’s self defence workshops.

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



I just wanted to thank you for sending such a inspirational instructor to teach my son Andrew. 

Grant Cosgrove came a month ago to start to teach my son Andrew Arakan. 

 I have only praise for Grant, he is not only kind and patient but has great knowledge.

My son is enjoying his sessions immensely, I have noticed changes in him since starting with Grant.  He has grown in confidence in such a short time.
