Hawkmoon Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Shotokai? I never heard of that term of Karate, but I see.This is a video compiled of different karate styles, opposed to 1 single style. I failed to see that before you pointed it out, thanks But yet, I still think the techniques look "cool".To me anyway, there is nothing like it the rush the pain (to be open and honest) the use of bare knuckles i guess its as close the street as you can get without going MMA or the street!Go find a club have a go!It can't hurt! (... metaphorically speaking that is!)Visit Youtube just search for Kyokushin Knockdown/training!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4uArYR7nog “A human life gains luster and strength only when it is polished and tempered.”Sosai Masutatsu Oyama (1923 - 1994) Founder of Kyokushin Karate.

Hawkmoon Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 It is well known and respected 'branch' of Karate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcwObThOxIEhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mas_Oyamahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyokushinkaikan The first link is a TV series on MA that focuses on this or that art from week to week, its the video of the week they looked at Kyokushin karate.The second is about the founder, Sosai Mas Oyama. (fyi: see my sig)The third is as good as any source of Kyokushin history!The last ones are examples of Sosai demonstrating his 'karate' Kyokushin karate. “A human life gains luster and strength only when it is polished and tempered.”Sosai Masutatsu Oyama (1923 - 1994) Founder of Kyokushin Karate.
