10 year-old Rayaan Ellahi and 11 year-old Amad Azim are two of the brightest young talents to come through the USKA Fight Factory in recent years.
Rayaan has been training at USKA for the past 5 years, while Amad has been with the club for 6 years. Both boys started their journeys in our USKA Ninjas programme before progressing into our Technical Classes, where they have continued to develop into two of our most promising young students.
Both currently hold the grade of Orange Belt and have enjoyed outstanding success on the competition circuit. Rayaan is part of the ICO Team England Squad and has built up an exceptional record, winning 5 World Titles across 2 World Championships in Germany and Wales. Alongside this, he has captured the WRSA Midland Area Title Belt and won an outstanding 17 National Gold Medals.
Amad is also a member of the ICO Team England Squad and has already won an incredible 13 National Gold Medals alongside 4 World Championship Gold Medals earned in Germany in 2025.
Having come through the USKA system themselves, both Rayaan and Amad have now stepped into the role of Level 1 USKA Junior Coaches, where they will assist in the running of our USKA Ninjas classes.
Their achievements, attitudes and experience make them fantastic role models for our younger students and living proof of what can be achieved through dedication, consistency and hard work.
We are delighted to welcome both Rayaan and Amad onto the USKA coaching team and look forward to seeing them continue to develop both as fighters and as coaches.
