Current Kyokushin Karate, In Brief

The kyokushin style stresses superior and practical techniques. Students learn foot movement, correct blocking procedures, practical kicking and striking techniques, as well as traditional kata (forms). We use 50% feet and 50% hands in our system. The kyokushin system, under the name of the International Karate Organization (IKO) at the time of Mas. Oyama's death was the largest martial arts organization under one man in the world, claiming up to 10 million members. Since M. Oyama's death in 1993, the IKO has splintered into several different groups, each claiming to be the true successor of Mas. Oyama. Our dojo, the Senshi Nokkiru Dojo, affiliates itself with IKO #7, a US based group not concerned about politics but instead focussed on training and learning.
