The global recognition award was awarded by sensei Kelvin Alleyne of Liverpool in the UK in recognition for Eksteen's ongoing dedication and devotion to the legendary martial arts.

POLOKWANE – Grandmaster, 10th degree black belt owner and the president of Eksteen’s Fighting Crow Karate International, Henri Eksteen was recently awarded a most prestigious international award through the World Tora Budo Kai’s World President.

The global recognition award was awarded by sensei Kelvin Alleyne of Liverpool in the UK in recognition for Eksteen’s ongoing dedication and devotion to the legendary martial arts brotherhood from Britain.

This brotherhood comes from the same stable as the late father of British karate and grandmaster, Ronnie Colwell which was established as early as 1960.

“I’m honoured and most proud to still be the South African director for this British brotherhood and being able to carry on with the late Colwell’s legacy since he was inducted in the early 2000’s to the present day,” Eksteen remarked.
