DaChroniclez Posted November 30, 2004 Posted November 30, 2004 Does Kyokushin contain any kata's or techniques that focus/include internal power?
Boaretto Posted December 1, 2004 Posted December 1, 2004 If i understood well, the Kyokushin have goods. Seienchin, Sushiho, kanku help emerge and grow up the internal power. "Karate is to stop the agressive spirit" - Sosai Mas Oyama
KungFuMan Posted March 13, 2005 Posted March 13, 2005 Here is an interesting link: https://www.crane.50megs.com/index6j.htm It is the story of Mas.Oyama's only defeat at the hands of a Tai Chi master and how Oyama stayed and studied with him and incorporated some internals into Kyokushinkai. It is arguable wether much of these internal have been maintained in the style of kyokushinkai, specially after Mas. Oyama's passing.

jedimc Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 that was a great article KungfuMan, thankyou. http://jedimc.tripod.com/ma.html - what MA do you do, this is my poll.
KungFuMan Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 jedimc, You are welcome. This article is specially interesting because not only does it inform one of aspects of Oyama's life that are not well known and of course its implications for Kyokushinkai, but it also enlightens the unenlightened to the mighty internal martial arts. Internal martial arts such as Tai Chi, where the exponents do not enter no holds barred contests and as a result are regarded as ineffective martial artists by many ignorants in the MA circles.

Osu No Seichin Posted March 14, 2005 Posted March 14, 2005 You should know that this all happened before Sosai declared Kyokushin.That is why Kyokushin is based on the theory of circle and point. I beleive at the time this happened he was training Goju, was a Nanadan and was a Yondan in Shotokan.

KungFuMan Posted March 15, 2005 Posted March 15, 2005 You may be right that this was before kyokushinkai's official existance however this was after Mas Oyama's defeat of the Thai Boxer, which makes the fit of the old Tai Chi master even more incredible. It also demonstrates Oyama's open mind and progressive thinking. KungFuMan Only time and commitment will make your Traditional "style" good and give you real knowledge.
