Instructor Bio

My name is Darren Jordaan. I have trained continuously with Sifu Brian Duffy, founder of the American Kenpo Federation, for over 10 years. Sifu Duffy trained directly with American Kenpo founder, Ed Parker, who approved the AKF curriculum before he passed away. Please visit the AKF homepage for more information on Sifu Duffy and the AKF.  

Originally from Johannesburg, South Africa, I happened upon Sifu Duffy’s school by chance and have been captivated by the art and Sifu Duffy’s instruction and example since 1996. I doubt I will ever know as much about martial arts as my Sifu, however, as one of his black belts I have a good base from which to give instruction while I continue my own learning. The BST Karate curriculum focuses on fitness, good basics, concepts and principles, self-analyzation, and goal setting.

Your financial investment for training with me will be little compared to most karate schools these days. Your greater investment will be perspiration and dedication...as my father used to tell me, "to be good at anything requires a little blood, sweat and tears".

Therein lies the naming of BST Karate.  

Your evolution is one simple email away.
