What is Kyokushin?
Kyokushin is a style of stand-up, full contact Japanese karate, founded in 1964 by Korean-Japanese Masutatsu Oyama.
"Kyokushin" in Japanese means "the ultimate truth" and is rooted in a philosophy of self-improvement, discipline and hard training.
Kyokushin training consists of three main elements: technique, forms, and sparring. These are sometimes referred to as the three "K's" after the Japanese words for them: kihon (basics), kata (Imaginary forms of Fight), and kumite (sparring).
At Shinzo Dojo we also teach practical and 'street' effective self defense techniques and assist all students in achieving their personal Karate goals.
Check out ‘Kyokushin’ on Wikipedia and YouTube for more information on the famous Japanese martial art.
