1 Million Strikes

Join the One Million Strikes Challenge and make your own strike against cancer.

In the summer of 2020 Kaveh will take on his most physically gruelling and mentally demanding challenge yet as he attempts to raise £1,000,000 by successfully completing a Guinness World Record of One Million consecutive martial arts strikes.

At a rate of 2 strikes per second, it will take Kaveh 6 days to complete his challenge, and you can support him live at the Intu Watford Shopping Centre as he attempts his incredible marathon challenge in August 2020.

However, to raise £1,000,000 Kaveh needs your help.

We need 1,000 people to complete “1,000 Martial Arts Strikes” which when added together will make 1,000,000 in total.

Sign up individually or in a team of up to 10 people.

Rather than just punching a bag, you will be performing a series of different punches and kicks – no experience necessary, you will get 4 free lessons to learn and practice the moves.

Once you have signed up, you can log into the online portal which has over 160 different classes from March to June and choose which ones you want to attend.

There are over 30 Challenge Events you can sign up to make your 1,000 strikes against cancer.

Your challenge will take approximately 1 hour to complete, followed by a medal and certificate ceremony.

You do not have to use take all 4 lessons, but it is strongly recommended to ensure you can complete your challenge successfully.

If there aren’t lessons or events in your area please email kaveh@inspired4life.org to discuss bringing the challenge to you!

We are asking each person to try and raise £250 – 100% of which will go to our charitable causes.  Why not ask your employer if they will match your £250?

Incredible prizes for individuals and teams who raise the most money.

Sign up costs of £45 per person which cover all the costs for lessons and events so every single penny you raise will go directly to making a difference in people’s lives.

Registration opens 10th February 2020.


Each individual fundraiser will have their own dedicated page, please contact them directly for links to their page.
