Osu!!! Through my experience, I believe that karate is karate, we shouldn't talk about the difference in styles....Instead we should appreciate the art of karate.

Thanks guys. It seems like not a lot of karatekas know about this club......it is actually one of the well-respected clubs in Japan. Sure no one knows any more?

This sort of slows you down right Orion?

Does anybody know about Shinkyokushin Karate? Who practices it? I used to practice Shinkyokushin karate, but I was forced to switch. I would like to follow up, so does anyone know any websites?

Yeah, the links are awesome! Thanks

For you guys' info. :The movie "Fearless" is a story about huo yuan jia, the founder of Jing wu.

Kyokushin Karate is more traditional I guess, at least compared to Shinkyokushin karate. BUT I really repect kyokushin philosophy

To wash your belt is to disrespect yourself. Karatekas never wash their belts.

I am a kyokushin karateka as well. I have been praticing it for quite a time. I know there is one uniqueness about "Japanese" Karate clubs-------push-ups are done by fists. Is that what you guys do as well?

Every club has its own order of belt levels....Usually lighter colors represent lower levels, and darker colors represent high levels.

How does Buddhism relate to Martial Arts? The breathing techiques? The philosophy?

My way of kiai is way different

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Karate=sport if it replaces Taikwondo

By the way, Drithen, you are a kyokushin student??????? Hey tell me about your training man, i mean, it is so hard to find kyokushin students around......

My favorite combo: knife kick (leg thrusting down on opponent's leg) and then punch the chest. I like to make combos which change height levels so it will confuse my oppponent.
