    I do kyokushin and i absolutly love it ! I was eager to do some Martial Arts so i went to Shotokan, TKD and then finally kyokushin and out of all three kyokushin was the best !

    Love it

    This is a great style of karate. All styles have strengths but for me it was the perfect match. Lots of contact in sparring, bruises and great fun. Don't get me wrong we don't have head hunters in the dojo but if your sparring and you leave your legs open, well stairs will suck for a day or two :)

    Each teacher has their own style so I can't speak about your Shihan but I suspect you'll find that as you progress the sparring gets more challenging.

    Try a few classes or watch a few classes and find out for your self.

    Interesting video. Most of the kyokushin highlights you see on the internet show fighters who try for the high-risk, high-payoff knockdown techniques like jumping rouundhouse kicks etc

    Mr Narushima seems to use body shots very effectively - a lot of his knockdowns seemed to be solid punches to the body, winding his opponent.

    I still miss Andy Hug... in the 90's the way he fought inspired me a lot.

    Hey everyone. If anyone is interested, on the downloads section of www.kyokushinbudokai.org theres a 129 page book (.pdf format) on Kyokushin Budokai :).

    OSU,

    Dave.
