So honored to begin a series of live talks with Shihan Pervez Mistry, who has also been my Guru and source of inspiration to pursue Exercise Science as a career! Shihan Mistry was the FIRST EVER Black Belt Karate Instructor qualified to teach and grade in India! In 1979, he also became the FIRST INDIAN to pass the Japanese Instructor's course conducted by the Federation of All Japan Karate-do Organization. Apart from being one of the most highly renowned Karate Instructors in the world, Shihan Mistry has also been an inspiration to thousands of individuals in the Fitness Industry. Shihan Mistry has trained a number of branches of the Indian Defence Forces which include the Military and Para-Military forces. These are just a handful of accomplishments that I've mentioned from a huge list. This interview was conducted on July 27, 2020.
