I didn't come here (Japan) especially for karate, but since I'm here I might as well train. :) I'm glad I have the opportunity.

Like other big organizations, Kyokushin, broke up into smaller manageable pieces. I guess it's hard to keep all those alpha-male types in the same organization.

I've also been lucky with the instructors I've had over the years. Some big names I trained under include Saiko Shihan Shigeru Oyama, Kaicho Tadashi Nakamura, Sensei Hajime Kazumi. I never studied with these instructors for more than a year, in the case of Kazumi a few days, but it was very cool being in the presence of such excellent karateka. Notice that these guys are no longer with Kyokushin. In the cases of Oyama and Nakamura, they've been gone for a long, long time.

I'm very happy to be training where I am now. The instructors and students are excellent and friendly.

Osu.

I live in Copenhagen, Denmark; am 22 years old and have been training Kyokushinkai karate for 6 months. I am currently 9th kyu. Before this I trained Aikido where I hold the 7th kyu.

Oh I almost forgot - IKO 2

Nice to meet you :)

The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence,

but in the mastery of his passions.
