"Kyokushinka who would go on to found their own styles" Oyama Shigeru would found World Oyama Karate Nakamura Tadashi would found Seido Karate Arneil Steve would found I.F.K. Ashihara Hideyuki would found Ashihara Kaikan Sabaki Ishii Kazuyoshi would found Seido Karate Ninomiya Joko would found Enshin Karate Hirohara Makoto would found Shintaiikudo *Hatanaka Zengyo would found Ken Shin Kakuto I trained under the tutelage of Mr. Hatanaka* Osu
Yoshiji Soeno would found Shidokan Karate Azuma Takashi would found Daido Juku / Kudo Not to mention some of the champions of Kyokushin Karate throughout the 90s to 2000s would also found their own gym
@CrimsonGetsu Depends really, a katana doesn't magically chop through anything it needs a fair swing. If a person caught it early enough and low enough on the blade there would be a fair chance that they could stop it, there simply wouldn't be enough momentum to go through the pressure of both hands pressed together. If he left it later though you'd probably be right, it would skin the palm off one of his hands and lodge in his skull.
@dvdglnn77 Sir Thank you for your reply. I had wrongfully thought that Mr. Arniels lefted the IKO and that was when he joined with the IFK and that was his parent org. But you are 100% correct the BKK is still apart of Kyokushin and a member of IFK. Thank you for helping me to put it all together. Osu
@CrimsonGetsu Sir The Fukura (edge of the Kassaki) and the Kassaki( the razor edge) plus the Ha (cutting edge) of the Katana was not the point of contact with Mr. Oyama's (now the founder of World Oyama Karate) hands. Mr. Oyama only came into concact with the Katana no Shinogi-ji (the side of the blade). This is why he was not cut badly. No Bullshit just a great understanding of Iaido. Osu
My Kyokushin days ended when I tore my left hamstring My teacher was more interested in getting the training done each day than actually doing proper warm-ups
In tadashi Nakamura's autobiography when he was talking about doing the sword grabbing demo with Shigeru Oyama he mentioned they had a lot of cut hands and misses in practice. He said they were very lucky they never had a similar failure in the actual demonstrations.
@broulys1729 they say if a sword master and a master of a spear fought the sword guy would at least have to be at least 3 times better then him to keep up with his pace of fighting so a un armed man the same will apply if he foght a sword.so an a sense your right the sword guy has a advantage but not a over all win....
The guy jumping over the car is Shihan Shigashidani. Aka Takumi. He started in Kyokushin and then he co-founded the Ashihara Karate w. Hideyuki Ashihara as far as I know.
@dvdglnn77 Sir Are you sayimg that Mr. Arniels (I.F.K.) has all of the same kata,kumite, tameshiwari, undo of Kyokushin but is not governed by the IKO (IKO2, Kyokushin Union, Shin Kyokushin) and he is the Kancho of the I.F.K.?
@shimmeringreflection I mean who are the last two white guys? (the latter is Arneil I think) and who's the guy jumping over the car (it's from the Strongest Karate movie)
@891trigfoot not true at all lol maybe these super beginers but not people thats actully good for example theres a style or may be its a tech in karate called gamaku(waist turn) were its hard to see their next movements also another style called metode(marride couple) were its hard for a person who fights on logic to beat lol
Five years later you get a reply. You are a lucky man lol. Perhaps russians love kyukushin because it is simple yet effective. No memorization of complex moves or fancy combos. I am not russian but this is one reason why i chose kyukushin over other styles.
you can see in the slow motion par that he doesnt continue the cut with the samespeed but he swols down, he coundnt had stopped that blade if he had the intension to cut with that blade ( katana )
lakshen47 I dont know. I just thought, if someone can really do it why cant this karate master do it? oh well. I dont believe in faking things for demos.
MaharlikaAWA Well he obviously could, but he didn't. Being run over by a car would be devastating for someone like this, so if there is a safe way to do it, it's better. Just because someone else risks his health, this guy doesn't have to. His sport is not jumping it's fighting. Lots of other sports make produce way better jumpers than karate :)
Can I get a list of names for all the masters? I need it for a school paper. Right now the only master I recognize is Sosai Oyama. Any help would be appreciated. OSU!!
Please! Teach me your ways, master! For some time it was thought, that no man could ever lift something over 400 kg. Or run with over 25 mp/h speed. Guess what? unless you are some sort of superhuman - you don't have the authority to claim, that something is impossible.
Don Fanto No one can cathc a samurai sowrd blade if the person has intent to kill them with it. I dare you to prove me wrong. I will use a sword and swing it at you with intent to kill and see if you can clap it in your hands and catch it. I respect kyokushin a lot but that one move was just demo theatrics.
MaharlikaAWA So since when did I become the emissary of humanity? Just because I or you can't do something - does not mean, that it's impossible. You totally missed the point.
