Testimonials

People like Sensei Nikhil who have given their life in attaining excellence in their respective fields are hard to find. And when one has someone like Sensei Nikhil in our own city one must recognize encourage and get inspired by his deeds both as an athlete and now as a coach who is spreading the message of martial arts across Ahmedabad and Gujarat. I wish him and his team the very best and hope that he can inspire many more like him to live a clean, disciplined and most importantly meaningful life.

In my first meeting I was struck with his demeanour, he was very unusual. Instinctively & instantly I took the decision to enroll my elder son in his karate class. 3 months later, I joined. 2 years & 4 karate camps later, I was feeling great. The training has brought back my health and good spirit, which was lost in the combative and pressured world of business. I wish I had found ASMA earlier.

The kind of training that Sensei Nikhil offers through ASMA is a complete martial arts training, infused with Yoga, Culture and right living. The training at ASMA and association with Sensei, in my belief, would create a solid foundation for our children to become strong and able - Men & women, the kind that our country and the world require.

Upendra Rungta Businessman aged 39, yet among the most enthusiastic students at ASMA

I always feel short of words for Sensei.

Sensei for me is an epitome of excellence and perfection. He was destined to change lives and so Arjun School of Martial Arts came into existence. To develop such an institution, to transform lives of thousands of students, and bring martial arts to such heights is a gigantic feat in itself. I have always idolized him as a true martial artist, philanthropist and teacher. .

I joined ASMA as a child but I grew into a mature individual only under Sensei’s guidance. Sensei’s mere presence in the dojo does wonders for the energy and spirit of the group. I always look up to his brief speech at the end of every dojo the reason being that there’s always lot to learn from those few minutes. Apart from the extraordinary training he imparts, I think more importantly he intricately carves one’s personality in a unique way. I have learnt to be humble, helpful and philanthropic and at the same time have become strong, courageous and fearless towards all aspects of life. .

It is said that very few people are fortunate to get a true master and I feel elated to realize that I am one of them.

Will forever be indebted to our friends Taral & Tejal for introducing us to ASMA & Sensei Nikhil Trivedi. I feel my son Aman is very lucky to have a GURU like Sensei, who does not only impart them training for Martial Arts, but instills GREAT human values in each and every student of his. He teaches them so much more about life & being good humans, that it seems Martial Arts is like an added bonus. It is not only well trained Martial artists that come out of ASMA, but it is some great human beings that come out from here, who make this world a better place to live.

Ajay Kurseja Director – ITTI, shares his happiness and enthusiasm for his son being a part of ASMA

His belief in me has made me believe, that I can do things that I couldn’t have done before. I always look up to him as my role model, and the quality I like most about him is his composure. Under whatsoever amount of pressure, he manages to remain calm and collected, I just wish I could be like him.

For us it was an out of the world experience. Both of us were skeptical about joining Mihir on this camp. Sensei Nikhilbhai had planned very interesting activities for the parents as well. Yoga sessions in the morning were very rejuvenating. Treks in the jungle were great fun. And of course the Girnar climb was the ultimate experience. What we like the most was the co-operation and unity among the students. It was like a family. It was very nice to see the seniors taking care of juniors. There was lot of discipline but at the same time the children were enjoying every activity and the company of each other. We felt that other than martial arts, children are learning so many good things! First is they learn to respect and obey elders. They learn to become independent in these camps, as they have to manage everything on their own without their parents. Also a very important thing is that children learn how to seek joy in small things. We think this was the most unique experience for both of us and we’ll cherish the memories of this event for many years to come…
