About Hennie Bosman
Hennie was bullied as a child and his mother read about Karate in the Reader’s Digest.
When Sensei Eddie Cave opened the first Karate school in Bellville in 1965, Hennie joined as a shy nine year old. He was fascinated by what he saw and never lost that fascination with this martial art. Initially he found the training tough but kept at it and received his black belt five years later.
After school he joined the SA Police and served as a detective in the Vehicle Branch in Cape Town but in 1978 he resigned to open the first of many karate schools.
