The origins of karate are the stuff of legend. However, the foundations of this discipline draw from the same source – nature – and have the same goal: the reinvigoration of health in the practitioner.

Among all styles of karate, Kyokushin, founded by Masutatsu Oyama, is far and away the most interesting. “Kyokushin” means “way of the ultimate truth” and has gained many followers since its inception, with over 12 million practitioners.

The Kyokushin style is famous for its real fights, its spectacular knockouts, but also for its very traditional style. It requires a level of discipline and etiquette that are arguably among the most demanding.

The culmination of Kyokushin Karate is combat. All the work of the karateka (karate practitioner) will focus on the development of three elements: tai (body), waza (technique) and shin (spirit, mind).
