Hi, I live in the sacramento area as well, and the one organized kyokushin class I know of around is run out of the rio linda parks and recreation. Sensei Willie Hernandez 3rd Dan(916)991-5929. I haven't tried the number but found it on the us kyokushin website. If you can't reach him just call the parks and rec. I used to attend years ago when Sensei Crabtree was teaching and it met 2x a week and was very reasonably priced. Not sure what it would be now, but it's a kyokushin class in your area. Also it is true about what everyone says about being a full-contact karate. To find out if the old school style is taught you might ask if they do conditioning(forearms, sciatic nerve, knuckles etc...) and the full contact sparring(no punches to the head though).When I was in it that was what was taught. Good luck!!! jon
