Welcome to Kyokushin Society - an online community for Kyokushin Karate content, training and home of the KYOKUSHIN KIDS Established with the intent to develop the true way of karate spirit
The goal is to inspire others, share my knowledge experience and vision of Kyokushin Karate and Martial Arts in general no matter what style - to walk on the path of a Martial Artist with perseverance and dedication.
Osu I am not sure exactly how many fights required for 1DAN in shin kyokushin but It usually is 10 fights of 2 minutes or 3 minutes For 1DAN fighting should be between 30 minutes and no more then 60 minutes for testing and usually after the grueling 4-5 hrs of the ProMotion As for the intensity of the bought that depends on the schools the instructor and individuals age and physicality.
I trained a Goju Ryu based Karate style through to Shodan from 1986 to 1996, then life happens, and I stopped training entirely. One of my favorite memories is when we went to multi-style tournaments... We thought we were tough but when we met the Kyokushin fighters we found out we were not as tough as we thought :-) but it was awesome and earned our respect! Osu Now 28 years later, at the beginning of this year, age 53 I started Kyokushin with my 10 year old daughter. We train together 3 times a week (I'm doing the parents train with their kid class) and she is absolutely loving it. We graded to Orange belt a couple of weeks ago. And I have totally got that feeling back again from back in the day when I was 15 and fell in love with Karate.
Osu I am turning 53 this year as well in October :) and I started my journey in kyokushin in 1990 and remember the tournaments - myself I also participated in a bunch of them here and abroad in Costa Rica - Porto Rico … and also was part of the fighting team here. At 185 lbs there where days that I thought I was the strongest and invincible :) We trained vigorously every day and we even had special fighting classes specialized for tournaments every Tuesday and Friday night from 8pm to 11pm where we had only the fighting team train doing specific fighting drills plus conditioning ,speed , power etc Those were some of the hardest and coolest moments :) Now I don’t fight any more but run a little dojo and work with children 4 and up and teach them - the next generation- the art of kyokushin karate best I can Arigato Thank you for you comment and sharing your journey. It is a beautiful but hard journey with lots of rewards and benefits and it does not matter what age you start at . Under a good instructor kyokushin will teach much more then just fighting and it is perfect for the younger generation - It helps children find their voice their inner strength teaches discipline focus and much more - all these benefits that will trickle into daily life beyond just the dojo floor Osu Also thank you for watching the video Any feed back will be appreciated
In fact, young Kano's ideas and theories were still far from evolution and maturity. But he studied the catalogs and documents of the Kitoryu Jujutsu school as well as a tireless and introspective university student, and like a painter sketching a landscape on a canvas and gradually perfecting it, over four decades he developed his views on his style. which was known as Kano Jujutsu by other Jujutsu schools, he developed it until the mid-1930s and classified Kodokan Judo scientifically.
No because his students was fighting not him.same goes with bull fight. He is fighting or rather wrestling with an ox not bull. Bull used in corrida would kill him in seconds. All just propaganda for naive kids. Put some black belt kyokushin sensei in the cage against profecional mma fighters and you will see how much this style is worth.
Should the lower interior abdominal muscles be sctivated the pull the hypogastrium in when exhaling. I worry I am contracting too much. Is there any contracting?
Breathe softly and completely silently. Prolong the exhalation. Release the breath and automatically sufficient air will momentarily flow back up through the nostrils. Breathe out slowly and gently for as long as possible. Again, effortlessly inhale naturally filling the vacuum. Continue breathing out and in this manner. Breathe from the belly or lower abdomen not the chest. Never hold the breath Focus all attention and power into the lower abdomen during exhalation, to a spot behind and about two inches below the navel. This spot, known as the tanden or dantian (丹田) in Asia or the hypogastrium in Western anatomy, is the center of the body. Withdraw all mental energy from the head and channel it into your tandem. Concentrate ; breathe from this point and practice Osu
If anyone says they won 270 fights, against all styles, and no video footage exists (does any?) I smell the waste product of the animal Oyamo apparently fought.
Its a lie like most stories about Oyama. Just propaganda to spread kyokushin. When i was younger i was practicing kyokushin and i bielieved in all of this. But when i was older i made my own reserch and it opened my eyes. Bluming interviev. And in this video should also tell about Oyama was a smoker thats why he died from lung cancer it also was one of many dissepoinments about him.
Dutch kickboxing wasn’t a combination of muay thai and kyokuchinkay karate? I always admired kyokushinkay karatékas they are hard strikers but I don’t know how to explain,they hit dry,like they stop their movement,they don’t keep the momentum. But a 100 days kumite that’s something to consider. To me Muay Thai still is the discipline but respect to all the athletes of both sports.Because after all it’s all about athlétisme which comes from the Greek (άθλος)which means surpassing yourself. Osu
So he was only 22 when he founded Kodokan Judo and had practiced martial arts for 8 years? He would have been like a brown belt or 1 Dan by todays standards. Pretty cool.
Osu I wanted to but Unfortunately I do not have all the footage they might be lost to time those where good tournaments with awesome fights I was there :) I think shihan Orhan or Kancho might still have them somewhere in storage on VHS tapes but I am just guessing that. Sorry
Osu! You could add the original #5 We will follow our gods and Buddha, never forgetting the true virtue of humility. In parentheses as optional maybe? But thank you for all you do to teach the world about Kyokushin! Osu!
A good fighter always has their hands up :) but You are right actually hands start up then go down while techniques are exchanged - that happens in a lot of kyokushin fights unfortunately leading to a lot of KO from leg technique since face punching is not aloud
@@kyokushinsociety I was first a Shotokan practitioner and then a Kyokushin karateka but with a background of military-grade self-defense. When I saw that Kyo fighters put their hands down and the art is taught exactly as it was taught 50 years ago, I questioned whether I wanted to spend my time on it. Lyoto Machida, the dragon of Shotokan showed the world that karate is a legitimate martial art, but to use it in a real combat situation (e.g. UFC), a lot of improvements have to be applied.
