The Raj Mehta Leadership Award was established in 2021 in memory of Raj Mehta, a black belt, leader, and member at Triangle’s Best Karate dojo for seven years. In addition to being a warm, brilliant, approachable friend and mentor, Raj was a gifted karate student, competitor in kata, kumite, and kobudo, a peer coach, and an emerging karate official. The dojo and Mehta family want to make sure good deeds are done to honor the positivity he projected. More about Raj’s life on his memorial page.
