Dijita Posted May 27, 2004 Posted May 27, 2004 I keep hearing of "World Oyama", what is that?? Is it different than Kyokushin or something? Or just a different branch of it, similar to the various IKO's?? I've met two fighters from the LA Dojo, they were both very nice. I will be visiting that dojo when I come back from San Diego this summer.
Profacci Posted May 27, 2004 Author Posted May 27, 2004 Not LA Kyokushin. Never heard of that. I am a part of the A.K.K.O. (American Kyokushin Karate Organization). Send me the info and I will be glad to see what I can arrange. Thanks for the invite.
EvilTed Posted May 27, 2004 Posted May 27, 2004 World Oyama Karate was founded by Shigeru Oyama and his brother Yasuhiko Oyama and Miyuki Miura. There were the leading lights and the hardcore Kyokushin instructors in the US. http://www.australiankyokushin.com/biographies/s-oyama.shtml http://www.australiankyokushin.com/biographies/mmiura.shtml World Oyama is basically US Kyokushin by the best Japanese instructors sent by Mas Oyama to the US. The training is the same as it was in the 1970s - hard core Osu! ET
Knockdown Posted May 30, 2004 Posted May 30, 2004 EvilTed: Shihan Miura left the World Oyama Karate organization seveal years go. 2000, or maybe 2001. although he did help found the system with the Oyama brothers, he is no longer a part of it. his website is at: http://www.Miuradojo.com

We've challenged LA Kyokushin to fight us for the past two years and they keep making excuses and never showing up We WILL be taking part in an open, full contact tournament in San Diego in August against Seido Kai Kan, Karate Juku, Kyokushin and World Oyama. You should bring some fighters and make it more interesting for us. Last year we took 1st, 2cnd and 3rd place. Osu!

Wise Master Posted June 1, 2004 Posted June 1, 2004 Kyokushin copy Mt a fact they can't fight MT so they cop some of muay thai knee strike. I am a karate master, the way of balance, and the way of invisibility.
