Armando Jemmott is the director and founder of International Traditional Karate Institute (ITKI). He received his Masters Degree in the martial arts from Vicente Cruz (RIP), head style of The International San Ten Karate Association for his mastery of technique and creative teaching skills. His focus is not only kata or kumite. His mission is to emphasize the importance of physics and body movement in creating increased speed and power for each technique subsequently used in kata, kumite, and self-defense. He has trained in Traditional Karate for over 50 years primarily under the guidance of Master Hidetaka Nishiyama and has adopted Sensei's no non-sense approach to biomechanics for each technique. It is indisputable that this understanding maximizes their effectiveness as they minimize injuries during training.
