Orgo Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Hey I'm new here and I was just wondering if there was any other seido juku karateka here on karate forums?I know that there is relatively large seido community where I live (New Zealand), but I am unsure of the rest of the world and the community on the Internet.Osu.

Dobbersky Posted May 9, 2011 Posted May 9, 2011 Orgo, my friendKnockdown Karate is quite small on here, I think there's about 5 of us. If you want a wider audience, Kyokushin For Life will be a starting pointOSU!!!! "Challenge is a Dragon with a Gift in its mouth....Tame the Dragon and the Gift is Yours....." Noela Evans (author)
Orgo Posted May 10, 2011 Author Posted May 10, 2011 I had a look at kyokushin 4 life and there didn't seem to be a seido community there either. Although seido is closely related to kyokushin, the mentality is quite different, and seido has a meditative aspect to it. I decided to check out this forum, which has a much wider view on martial arts which I think is important.I figured I'd check and see if anyone was going the same path as I.Osu.

Heiwa Bushi Posted May 28, 2011 Posted May 28, 2011 Osu HEY I was about to start a discussion on this..Dobbersky I think what you mean is Seidokaikan which is knockdown karate .. Seido Juku is not really knockdown although there is some decent sparring ..I think the focus is slightly more on the tradition and meditation aspects I'm a seido juku karateka ..I think a some of 2 blackbelts from the dojo I'm at moved to new zealand maybe you know them?Osu I am a student of life
Orgo Posted May 29, 2011 Author Posted May 29, 2011 What are their names? i may not know them personally but I've probably heard of them.
