I’m training karate with a Kyokushin legend! This is a Japanese martial art known for it’s brutal sparring. Let's see if I survive a class with Sensei Brian Fitkin - direct student of Mas Oyama himself.

My late father is a black belt kyokushin. When I started training karate (I learn shotokan style), he sometimes gives me advice about my techniques. One time after winning my first medal (3rd place in my region), I got humbled when sparring with him. 50 y.o and he beat me with just one hand. Miss him until today.

Osu! Great video to show the philosophical aspects of kyokushin, that many times are forgoten when people talk about it in social media. That "never give up" spirit is what really matters, and the reason why to the search of endurance and toughness of Kyokushin. Not a "macho" kind of thing but a mental and spiritual growth trip, through the conditioning of the body. Thanks, osu!

I remember an interview on Kuro-obi World with Yuna Mokudai. She said, "If you know how hurt you feel being punched, you wouldn't want to do that to other people." Even in an art that teaches techniques of hurting people, we learn humility and empathy. It's quite the paradox. But it is a good way to learn and a good thing to learn. Great video, Jeese.

It was similar for me, I started kyokushin when I was 13 years old, unfortunately the club was closed after 2 years. 1.5 years ago (now at the age of 27) I started with Wado Ryu. Also because of the videos of Sensai Jesse and Yusuke San from Dojo waku. It makes me really happy to do karate again, but also a bit sad when I see kyokushin again.

I'm not training anymore but my first experience with martial arts was at the ripe age of 23, in a Kyokushin dojo down the street from my house. What you did here is exactly like what we did there. Man, I now consider myself really lucky to have started with Kyokushin. I never learned that "toughness" lesson growing up, and as a young man trying to find his way in the world, it's exactly what I needed. I trained some Shotokan later, but haven't trained anything formally in a few years. But man, that lesson of being tough has stuck with me through all the challenges of life.

As a Kyokushin practitioner with the kanji tattooed on my chest I'm happy to see this. Even though Kyokushin is more directed towards sports instead of practicality in my opinion, to me it is so much more. What the Sensei said is what it's all about. It has helped me through the hardships of life more than once. After getting my basis in Kyokushin I've expanded to Goju Ryu for the more practical teachings. Every style has something great to teach!

Kyokushin was also the style of Sonny Chiba, who himself was a student of Mas Oyama, and portrayed his master in a movie trilogy (Champion of Death, Karate Bearfighter and Karate For Life), based in turn on the manga "Karate Baka Ichidai". Mas Oyama was a rather peculiar figure - he was a Zainichi Korean (an enthically Korean Japanese citizen) born as Choi Yeong-eui, and studied several martial arts growing up, learning Shotokan Karate from Gigo Funakoshi, son of Shotokan founder Gichin Funakoshi, then studied Goju-ryu, and after many years of training in isolation in the mountains, he founded his own dojo in 1953 and started developing his own style of hard-hitting karate, and he was famous for travelling around the country doing demonstrations where he'd fight bulls barehanded. While some of the tales of his life are often disputed, he was an inspiring figure who dedicated his whole life to Karate, and his picture was on the wall of the dojo where I practiced, alongside other "father" of modern Karate like Gichin Funakoshi and Higaonna Kanryo.

Later aikido, weapons, some tai chi but there is something valuable in all. Used to spar with wing chun and silat friends Along the way NC hawkbill and San Juan Los Atomicos old skool edged weapons.

Great to see someone enjoying Kyokushin Karate and showing that although it may be rough and incredibly strenuous, we are taught to be reserved and to only fight if it means we have to defend ourselves. It took me 14 years from the point of when I first joined Kyokushin as a child to get my black belt but man when I did that feeling was unlike any other, I hope others will strive for the goal to become a kyokushin black belt one day.

​@@MartialArtsGamer As a kyokushin practitioner I don't think other arts have to do body conditioning. Depending on the goal, you should or should not do body conditioning. Every art has a goal they want to achieve which influences the curriculum and the way they train. Their goal does not have to be combat practical either. It is like saying because I pick up playing guitar, now I have to practice playing live on stage and get comfortable playing in public. People play guitar for many reasons: for fun, mental health, stress management, interest. The guitar is just the means to reach your goal. Martial arts is just like that.

One of the things I love about Kyokushin is how similar it is to older fighting methods, where you had to really be careful where you struck with your fists like armored warfare but also like bare knuckle boxing. Hitting the head could be done, but you had to be careful because the head is literally designed to protect the brain, and the hand isn't really designed for striking fist wise.
@bartlunatyk
@bartlunatyk Рік тому
That is a cool point of view! But very different from the one I have. I've trained both boxing and kyokushin and I must say that not having to worry about short distance punches to head is one of its biggest downfalls. Head is hard, but it doesn't take that much strength to break nose or cut over eye with bare punch and that changes the fight completely. I was always surprised by how careless my kumite partners were about head protection once they started throwing those body punches. In my club everyone seemed to be aware of this downfall, yet without training specifically for it, they just couldn't improve it.
@astonprice-lockhart7261

@BinaryB Oh no, my views are opposite. I agree with that aspect. I like that they fight with no gloves. However, remembering the head punches is key.

The fighting style of your mind is different also. Hand is always up, you have to forget the "one perfect winning punch" feeling. You must feel the flow of your mind in the middle of the fight.

I love the points you come to at the end of your video. For the style that is not only about full contact, but full control, and that the more experience you have, and the greater your rank of student, the kinder, and more controlled they become, not so much the more beastly they are. As a student of Enshin Karate, I've observed there are personalities to the belts during sparring. Going from beginner-of-beginners white, learners up through blue and yellow, to what I've called "fireball" green, for how furiously greenbelts I've seen tend to spar! From there to "burnout brown," a feeling which I experienced personally, intimidated by the test to proceed to black belt. And then the black belts: The KINDEST sparring partners. So much control, aiming to refine techniques and push the opponent to further learning in the dojo, rather than simply dominate. A feeling I didn't understand until I'd earned my black belt. I wanted not only to teach myself, but to help the other belts learn during sparring. It's been a long long time since I have returned to a dojo, and when people ever ask me what belt I am, I say "white." But the spirit of Karate has been an enormous part of my life, and I carry it with me always. Osu!

I love this, thanks for trying it out Jesse. Kyokushin saved my life after a bad marriage break up, it pulled me out of the darkness, I'm now coming up to my 7th tournament and I'm probably addicted to it. The other thing about it is that kyokushin clubs are more like families or communities than just dojo's. You get so much more out of it than just learning karate.

Jesse, I'm so glad you did this video! My introduction to karate was USA Goju, and it formed the base for my martial arts journey. In college (1996), however, I was introduced to Oyama Karate - an offshoot of Kyokushin. My initial instructor was Sensei Zbigniev Pikula from Poland. His instruction in the style introduced me to Mas Oyama and fundamentally changed my entire outlook on martial arts. It opened the doors for me to learn valuable lessons from many different people and arts.

When I was a lot younger and doing Krav Maga for a few years I thought the Krav warm ups were brutal. Then we shared a class with Kyokushin practitioners and I thought I was going to pass out during their warm up. We then trained against them and I would have been a bloody pulp if they hadn't held back. I'd often see busted noses coming out of their classes and was amazed there weren't any broken sternums. In short, these guys were hardcore, and quite frankly frightening 😕

Congrats on surviving a tough Kyokushin class! That green belt you sparred had very long and flexible legs which is why he was able to get that axe kick in. And the last match against the champ -- he had fantastic control. This style has a great philosophy and training method. In Hawaii, the Kyokushin school was run and taught by the late great Bobby Lowe, a fantastic sensei and direct student of Mas Oyama.

@mizzle6822 Рік тому
Always love these videos. Something I've noticed is that you are carrying your hands a bit lower than your opponent at times, which makes it harder and more taxing to block strikes. If you notice, your opponents are generally keeping their arms at 45 degree angle until they strike, fists always immediately retracting back up somewhere under their chin, so that their hands are always on guard, similar to orthodox boxing. If you strike too much at a downward angle, your arms end up beneath their elbows. If they happen to throw a punch, you now have not only the extra effort to bring your hands back up to guard, but also can run into your arms getting trapped under theirs. Essentially, you'll have to eat their punches while simultaneously having to maneuver your arms around theirs to bring them back up. If you were to also maintain a 45 degree angle, you'd be in a better position to block and or counter strike without coming out of striking/guard position to then reset back into striking/guard position. I digress though because it's probably just one of those things that is a more core component of kyokyshin specifically and being tired on top not being used to maintaining that angle of hand placement is just one of those things that has to be practiced over and over. Plenty of other styles generally just have a more relaxed hand placement. Thank you for always providing solid content, keep it coming!
