Hey guys/girls

Is shotokan an effective style on the street, or in match.

I'm a muay thai fighter but am interested in karate, something traditional but effective, i've heard shotokan is great.

What do you think?

I don't personally believe that Shotokan karate is to effective, however it is great for tournaments and things like that.

I have been training in Saishu Ryu Karate Jitsu under Sensei Eric Whitsell and it is very impressive. I trained in Shotokan for nearly 15 years, and in 5 minutes I was on my back and couldn't figure out what happened.

If anyone is looking for a good hybrid art that is traditional and not traditional at the same time you should really look into Saishu Ryu. Very good stuff.

You were in a McDojo, when you went to the Saishu Ryu Karate Jitsu club, the sensei wasn't the McDojo type of guy.

I checked out the website , saishu ryu sounds interesting although kumite rules are similar to those of WKF .

Moon might shine upon the innocent and the guilty alike
