Kyokushin rythms ?

[luxifur]

Hi,

I've just started kyokushin again afters years and years being out of it. A new thing for me that we are supposed to know for exams, are something called 'rythms'. I think there are 9 rythms in total. I was wondering if anyone knows these and can write these down for me, or maybe there's a video on youtube somewhere? I've searched but couldn't find it.

I do know the first rythms:

Rythm 1:

Start with straight double fists jodan, then chudan, then gedan. Leave your left hand out, pull back the right. Then do normal 1 hand punches: jodan, chudan, gedan. Then jodan uke, gedan barai, double arm defense (forgot the name). Then hiza geri, kin geri, mai keage.

Rythm 2:

Start with fists high besides the shoulders, snap punch right, pull back. Then straight punches (right) jodan, (left) chudan, (right) gedan, then right hook chudan, then straight punches jodan, chudan, gedan, but with fist so your hand could be holding coffee or something (opening of the fist is pointing up). Then soto uke, mai geri.

I might be mistaken a bit with these two rythms, i'm not sure.

Can anyone help me to complete all the rythms ?

Thanks!

Hello luxifur and welcome to the forum. Sorry though can't help you with Kyokushin, very little experience of it, and that was a long time ago. I'm sure someone with more experience will be along to answer soon.

Hi Guys, these sound like association combinations. We have ten in our style with 4 variations of each. They can vary greatly from style to style, school to school; but yet I am no Kaiokoshin, so I have no experience of these directly.

Here rhythm 1 is done by Steve Arneil and his class:

, starts around 1:08.

Osu!

Welcome back!

I returned after a while away myslef the other year! There are a few things that have changed since 'we' were in a dojo!

Rythm 1 is 10kyu syllabus, break it down and compare...!

Number two looks to be a new thing, can't recall ever doing this back in the day!

I'm just getting to grips with it, I only know it as 'the 17 hand technics'!

There is a second bit to this, also in the video, that is 'the 22 kicks technics'!

[Harkon72]

Yes, as I can see they are Kihon combinations, done for muscle memory and conditioning. If I am wrong, I'm sure one of your fellow Kaiokoshin can correct me.

[luxifur]

Its not the 17 hand or 21 leg techniques (as seen here: http://www.kyokuacademy.co.uk/17%20HAND%20TECHNIQUES.JPG and https://www.kyokuacademy.co.uk/21 LEG TECHNIQUES.JPG ). We sometimes do these in the warming up though.

...d'oh! still got loads to pick up then!

[yamesu]

These do sound like organisation specific combinations.

Ive done these and similar throughout my training, but never called them anything other than ido geiko, particularly when moving in various stances.

[luxifur]

After checking out the ido geiko on youtube (for example:

) , I can say its not what i meant See my earlier post where i put up a link where Steve Arneil does it.

So still searching... !

Thx all for the replies though
