- The History of Kyokushin: Part 1 - Origin
This episode is the first of 3 tributes episodes to the art of Kyokushin Karate. Kyokushin is a leader in world full contact knock down karate and its founder, Sosai Mas Oyama is as tough of a martial artist as they come.
In this episode we explore Mas Oyama's background, training, and how he formed the art of Kyokushin. We also talk about the emblems of the art, a brief look at the training, and well as the spirit of "OSU".
In part 2 we will explore the curriculum, dojo etiquette, and ranking system of Kyokushin. In part 3 we take a quick look at the different organizations, offshoot styles, and the global impact the art has had.
This is our first Premiere event video, so please share this page! Post it on your social media and help us make this premiere a success!

I am really impressed that this master does know that originally he was born in South Korea. As one of a Korean, also kyokushin karate trainee, he is the bridge btw Korea and Japan. Osu!
@Wills Pram "gated"? or "hated"?
Actually, the speaker did mention this in the beginning, on 2:22 minute
He used to murder cattle with his bare hands
He says it in the first 5 seconds bro
Apparently Mas Oyama adopted the idea of the 100-Man Kumite from two martial arts masters in history. First was Yamaoka Tesshu, a great swordmaster of the mid-19th century and founder of the Hokushin Itto-Ryu completed the hyakunin tachi or '100 man duel' by facing and defeating 100 opponents, consecutively, in bouts with a bamboo practice sword or Shinai. The second and last was Masahiko Kimura, the most famous Judo practitioner in history, defeated 200 black belts. It was with these martial artists in mind that he needed to have his own test of true strength in facing 100 opponents each day for three consecutive days. :D
Yeah! True! I just read that in Budo Karate book by Cameron Quinn. Reading that it look like most of the info here is from that book.
The recent 100 opponents fight they give them some breaks between the opponents. Don’t they?
@@Fluffyfrenchy I would think they had cut off points for breaks after 50 oppenents, 10 to 15 mins after the first 50.
Wow . Now u speak of this I imagine kyokushin with all upper body through the sword😮😮😮 with all kicks and distance control with legs this would basically be the best samurai ever. How would u get close enough to strike. Osu!
@@jrgenstorm6536 LOL. What do you base that claim on?
I trained in kyokushin since the 70s made many friends safed my life twice I miss it OUS

Amazing art too

Did Karate for 10 years now. Started at 6 years old, it is now almost in my DNA. This art helps so much in every aspects of life, wether it is fights or simply social interactions. It develops in every practitioner a strong will, a strong ethic and a strong mind. Mas Oyama was a formidable person and you made an incredibly good video about such a complex and interesting style of karate. Thanks from all the French Kyokushin community. Osu!

My dad has osteoarthritis and he still does taekwondo with me
Kyokushin is in my lineage. My instructor's instructor Bob Babich was a black belt in Kyokushin, however, he met a Korean man who practiced Kang Duk Won, and he felt that was a more mobile, faster style (at least the Korean man was) so he changed his teaching to include both. I'm glad for this because I had a day job to do as a surgeon and Kyokushin may not be the best thing to train if you know what I mean. I did train with a 100% Kyokushin practitioner one time who was very tough, and he told me they used to fight full contact in total darkness!
Oss!
OH man! Fighting in darkness, that has to be an awesome drill. It would be a great way to teach contouring and really get the feel of grappling.
Art of One Dojo > It's actually impractical unless you're doing it in the setting of war because I've had this come up as a teen going down the hall to check on a noise and not knowing my father was doing the same and we bumped each other in the darkness but i had the discernment to know it was my father but he was intent on messing me up until verbal de-escalation controlled the situation. Otherwise, I would've destroyed him really bad and it's dangerous when this happens at home especially when one or both are trained.
@@rrt1592 I thought it was crazy too.
@@rrt1592 It's not even that practical for modern war (and I say this as an OIF veteran).
the AGNOSTIC formerly known as incomprehensible14 > I also don't agree with any training that will injure the practioner. This is a reason I never had a very long period of training in Karate. It is tough and educational but very impractical in a lot of the training.
Tempted to go live in the woods for a few weeks practicing Martial Arts :)
If you do, make sure to film it!
Much respect to Kyokushin from this Ryukyu Kempo/Kajukenbo practitioner. Osu!
As a Kyokushin karateka, this was a well done introduction to the art! Osu!
Kyokushin was one of the best times of life. Im currently pursuing it again
I was fascinated by Shihan Oyama when I first started hearing and reading about him in the mid 70s, while teaching Judo and learning Kempo at Houston School of Martial Arts. Much respect from an old Judoka/karateka.
Do you know the reasons why did he get that diseases and die not very old? Thank you.
Osu!
OUTSTANDING! I have been involved with Kyokushin and World Oyama Karate styles since the late 70's and I haven't seen a better synopsis of the art! I have enjoyed all of the videos in your series! Thanks for the effort!

Hey love the video I'm a second brown belt in kyokushin karate I've been doing it since I was 6 years old in france and hopefully a black belt soon. OSU!!
Perhaps an episode on The States greatest Kickboxer, Sensei Benny “The Jet” Urquidez & his Ukidokan Karate Style?
I’m a Kyokushin practitioner here in The Philippines under IKO-1 (Matsui Group)
The one thing I find interesting about Kyokushin is that, our fighting techniques are extremely “hard” but many of our kata techniques are “soft” as it has Goju Ryu influences.
OSU. I agree
I'm so jealous of you I have to train by myself since there's no Kyokushin dojos here or any styles of karate, there are only TKD and all of them are McDojo and I don't like TKD.
UPDATE, our organization left IKO-1 and are now under IKO Nakamura. I’m currently Shodan and teaching Kyokushin Karate in The Laguna Area here in The Philippines. OSU!
@@Enzo-hu9gs where are you at?
Seido/ kyokushin love from JA OSU!!!
Well presented. I started kyokushin in 1987 in Brooklyn, NY. Headquarter was in Manhattan under Shijan Shigreru Oyama. Something happened It became USA Oyama. I got my first dan in 1990. I was orange belt when I started fight semi-knock down and knockdown when I was a greed belt. Great times. osu!
elchalo66 Kanamaru Sensei was trip.
So glad to see this video. So accurate to remember back to my kyokushin days. I miss them dearly. Defining moments in my life. Osu!
I started with Sensei Paul Arel, when he was a Kyokushin instructor in Hartford County, Connecticut. I started with him in 1966, after learning he served in the Marine Corps (As I was a Marine also) in the mid to later 1950's. He joined Kyokushin in the early 60's, and trained under Mas Oyama.
However, I have no claim to fame. When I was with him from 1966-1970, we did not do the regimen that Kyokushin dojos do now. It was more of a regular system, doing all the basics, kata, but included self defense, and ended with internal but no sport sparring. Shihan Arel started his career with Japanese Jiu-Jitsu and entered the Marines as a black belt. Self defense was an important part of our curriculum. After he left Kyokushin in 1970, he formed Kokondo and Jukido, which are still practiced today. Shihan also earned a black belt in Judo.
I trained on kyokushin gi when I was 12 years old for 4 years to reach brown belt under the instruction of a 6 dans black belt Master A. Abou Khazaal in Beirut, Lebanon !!! To be honest, it was very difficult and complicated ... the first year was
totally self defence and body strengthening and one of the notorious technique... fist blows and a wooden branch striking straight towards the chest and you have to have an empty breath of all air in the lungs and stomach..the second important one is the kata..it will feed the left side of your mind This will allow you to automatically defend yourself but not to attack ... to give yourself space to study your opponent and thus plan strategies on your opponent's weaknesses and if it's worth fighting or allowing you to be merciful. This kind of training makes you able to fight 4 people without inflicting any harm or injury to others in only 6-8 months, it is pure self defense and sel strength training.
What a stud. He was well rounded. Probably would have made a good MMA fighter in his heyday.
Katachi! You just taught me something new. 30 years and you can always learn something. Osu!
As always Mr Dan, another solid production. I have a work colleague, that trains once in Kyokushin Karate (north side of Brisbane Australia). You have inspired me to pop out to train with him for a night. He invited me some months ago. Whilst I do not wish to take up another martial art (too busy with running a dojang myself), I feel it is okay to visit and build strong relationships within the wider martial arts community. Thank you for doing that for me.
Your vision for a collaborative appreciation of the martial arts is growing well.
That is awesome, and I truly hope you do go visit the school. I would love to hear about your experience and what you like and didn't like :) Thank you for the awesome support!
Art of One Dojo - will definitely share the experience of that class invite. Will be going this coming Thursday night.
Before this video I was thinking "yeah kyokushin is cool and I'd like to try it"... after the video "OH GOD THESE PEOPLE ARE CRAZY!" great video tho excited to see the next ones.
Don't be intimidated by the training. If you join a Kyokushin or a World Oyama dojo your brothers and sisters will help guide you through the training.
True that, your dojomates won't beat you down like that until you ask or until they deem they've molly coddled you long enough which is usually around the middle of the Kyu grades.
It’s worth it.
agreed lol - i endure enough pain without having to worry baout full contact sparring! That being said first kenpo instructor freely gave me bruises or the occasional mild knockout. Oddly enough, I was too in awe to be offended or scared.
In japanese martial arts it is traditional to train very hard and go all out.Even in practice.Even Steven Seagal who traveled to Japan in his youth to learn Aikido.Mentioned in a documentary about his life that on a regular basis he and his fellow students often broke their fingers and toes.
Sensei Dan, thank you for YOUR commitment to not only Kenpo but the universality of Martial arts and the depths they can be understood. 💪🏻🥋👍🏻
I appreciate you taking part in the live chat. I love doing this channel because for most of my training I stayed in my little Kenpo corner but I am really enjoying stepping out and learning about all the wonderful arts out there. I LOVE Kenpo, and it's my root, but I have such an appreciation for other systems and I find it fascinating how there are so many different ways to accomplish similar life goals.
And all of YOU guys and the support are what's making this channel worthwhile, so I thank you for that!

Mas Oyama was a real bad ass. This style is the real deal folks. Winners of the K1 championships for example had a background in Kyokushin.
I want to learn kyokushin, I take the pain than the danger any day.
I do like Kyokushin. Although a lot of Oyama's claims seem a bit dubious, I cannot help but respect the guy for his dedication.
Which claims are dubious do you think?
@@CameronQuinnKyokushinKarate well the bull killings and horn chops
@@TheHaHaNinja Okay, well, despite the film footage, photos, eye witnesses and one of the horns on display at his dojo, some will naturally remain skeptical. That happened a lot with Oyama's exploits.
@@CameronQuinnKyokushinKarate I definitly respekt the man he was and the style he created but I doubt his bull feats.
In the video were he suposedly chops the horn of the video cuts just as he is deliveting his chop and we see a horn hit the ground. His suposed one punch killings have no video or photo evidence makeing it hard to believe
@Yasaburo Kashiwazaki I'm sorry, what do you base that claim on? What experience do you have with Oyama? Who do you know that was around at the time to substantiate your claim? I suppose you doubt a lot of other things about his life story too?
OSU, Kyokushin karate student from Pakistan.🇵🇰🤍
OSU! Kyokushin Shodan here. This is a great video. Thanks so much for taking the time to explain our history in such detail!
This is definitely top five request for me! Maybe even number one or two!
Great video! Respect to Mas Oyama. And I didnt know he was born on July 27th. We got the same birthday. Cool! lol and I always had interest in training Kyokushin but unfortunately there aren't in kyokushin dojos where I live.
Osu! Kyokushin is an art of life that makes people better and humble !
Great video! I've been looking forward to this, did not disappoint!
Grand Master OYAMA MATSUTATSU aka CHOI YEONG-EUI🙏
Excellent , awesome history lesson of Kyokushinkai Karate.
This is the most articulate,in-depth descriptive documentary series on the History of Mas Oyama and Kyokushinkai Karate!
Many Thanks to Mr. Dan for producing this outstanding articulate clear and concise series on thr origin of Kyokushinkai Karate and its founder, Sosai Mas Oyama, Osu!
I started studing Kyokushinkai in early 1980's at the Spring Valley New York Dojo under direct students of Mas Oyama, namingly our beloved recently deceased on 13/Feb/2019 (RIP) Shihan Richard E. Wolicki who along with Saiko Shihan Soshu Shigaru Oyama, Shihan Hollingsworth,Clide Coy,Miuki Miuria Senseis,MikeS,Mike B,Joe,Tony,HarryK,Tiger Schulman,all taught us well.
One thing I wish to include which is not mentioned is that the "Father" of Jujitsu which is; Taijustsu was incorporated into Advanced Kyokushin techniques as well as that of Aikido techniques eliments there of were also incorporated and taught to Black Belt level advanced students.
Shihan Wolicki placed allot of emphis on the Taijustsu part which later in life I found in real combat as a Military and Civil Police Officer to be very dependable and effective along with Kihon Karate techniques.
Another thing I learned about the word Osu, and the Japanese Language that Shihan Wolicki showed me, pointing out to me was the genetic and linguistic relation to my father's side of my family the Finnic; Estonian nationality that Estonians,Finns,Hungarians are related to Korean and Japanese.
Shihan Wolicki told me that when he lived in Finland he could understand some basic root words in Finnish language from Japanese that the root words have very similar meanings, which I discovered to be entirely the case, true as to many clues such as the Estonian word imperative to Believe,Strive and have Confidence is the word; "USU". Which is essentially the same meaning as the Japanese Kyokushin use word " OSU"
Which is one of many root words that shows the ancient leanage of the linguistic connections that these Touranian Race peoples hold.
Shihan Wolicki also had allot of respect for Kempo Karate saying that "Kenpo"/ "Kempo" is a very powerful effective style".
Thank You Again Mr.Dan, you are a True Maritial Arts Master Teacher and Gentleman, for making this, important most in-depth analysis documentary of the history of Kyokushinkai Karate and its founder Sosai Mas Oyama,
Osu!
Much respect and recognition to a great Master Mas Oyama
My son is a newbie a red belt and in this short time he's developed confidence within himself and a new passion in life. I've enjoyed the video of the history of this karate. OSU love from Australia
I trained in Kyokushin Karate for 7 years. And I want to learn other Karate styles. Complete my Karate even more.

VERY NICE video! I have been training Kyokushin (and now shinkyokushin) for 25 years and never heard such a good introduction of Kyokushin Karate from a non kyokushin practitioner. Now is hard to find karate students even in Kyokushin who are familiar with the origin of Kyokushin and life of Mas Oyama. OSU!

OSU! thanks a lot for the wonderful treatment,great way to start a day for decades long kyokushin karatekas like us
Gsp trained in this type of karate it's a good to start in
but better in mma direct if you want to go for mma
Gsp is 3rd degree black belt. Kyokushin fighting rules arw nit good for mma but the thougness and mentality is very helpful, gsp mentioned that in a post fight interview.
It Will improve your mma I took it not knowing gsp took it and I always had an advantage over my opponents
GSP is a good fighter but a poor Kata practiser according to this UFC demos... I would say he does kyokushin Randori but not that he deserves a 3dan. In IKO1, 3Dan requires to be a very good karateka able to teach as well as perform in opens and tournaments.

THANK YOU for uploading.
OSU! Great video, keep up the good work!
love this !
Great video Mr. Dan. I'm so glad you explained the meaning of Osu as well as how it shouldn't be used lightly outside of the dojo. In my dojo a new student is given a plain white gi. Once you reach the 8th Kyu (second belt which is blue belt in my dojo) you are presented with a light weight gi with the Kyokushin emblem. Side note I'm currently reading Musashi Book of Five Rings, just started the fire chapter.
I like that, you have to earn the traditional Gi. Thank you again for making the effort to joining the live chat!
Excellent presentation. A tremendous informational article
Love this...Osu!,
I really appreciate your final part of mentioning about the license. Very high quality video with both content and meaning.
So this LEGEND was THE ONE PUNCH MAN. LEGENDARY
Great informative video! Osu!
you rock sensei Dan! you don't know how long I've been waiting for this, thank you, and you are right on one thing, Kyokushin does require a will of steel, and it's not for everyone, the Kumite and hard training is what made me wanna do Kyokushin for a long time, so thank you for honoring our request of doing this video. OSU!
It is a fun art to learn about. I really admire Kyokushin and the true dedication it requires. As an expression I heard once (Actually from Tom Hanks in "A League of Their Own", "It's the hard that makes it great".
@@ArtofOneDojo I look forward to part 2 of the Kyokushin origin, you're doing great at explaining the arts, hope that you do the origin of Shotokan next

Great...OSU from Italy
Lovely video Sensei Dan. Thanks for making such a discriptive version , a big OSU from (India) Ankur Dey (2nd Dan) practicing kyokushin since 1991 under Shihan Shivaji Ganguly . I will share this on my page. 😊
Legendary excellence!
Outstanding video Sensei, great editing and explanation. I am a practitioner, 3rd Dan, of Kokoro Kan, (Way of the Heart) Karate founded by Kaicho Frank Rossetti who trained under Tadashi Nakamura at the Kyokushin Honbu in NYC back in the late 60's and all of the 70's. He trained with Bill Oliver and Willie Williams and many other Kyokushin greats from that dojo. He met with Mas Oyama many times and said shaking his hand was like shaking a stone hand. I wish I had the honor of meeting him myself.
Kaicho's style follows the same principles of Kyokushin. Our kata's and beginner, intermediate and advanced self defenses are very similar to that of Kyokushin. We do the same body conditioning drills, some that have made students quit. Our Dojo has Mas's photo 1st in a line of many photos of who Kaicho trained under and his top ranking students since starting his own style.
I rarely say Osu outside of the dojo, with the exception being when I see videos like yours here on YT. And I say this with the utmost respect as a fellow karate practitioner and as a new subscriber to your channel.
Osu!!
Thank you very much, I appreciate that and welcome you to the channel!
Amazing content, keep it up Mr Dan
I really enjoyed this video.
Mas Oyama was a great master.Must say I dont like that kind of sport kumite,but Kyokushinkai pre-arranged kumite and katas are so awesome and beautiful.
Kyokushin katas are awesome & beautiful?

Loved this, I loved the history a Kenpo, and I hope if I'm patient there will be one for Shotokan!
We made a Shotokan series this year...did you see it?
I studied this 40 years ago! Same symbols and customs! We used to do some breaths before class and our teacher (3 Dan then) used to kick us in the balls to check if we control the breath correctly :D
love this, oss
Oh! This is Mas Oyama's Style. Gotcha!! That explains it.
Good info. Thanks.
Some of their technique are quite Korean like the axe kick rolling hills kick and many many other things but at the highest levels martial arts and sciences ALL share lineage and only differ in mechanics and or ideology. WD Ross was my Kwon bop/ Korean kempo instructor in the seventies and it was a vicious effective art the way Master Ross interpreted it to us. Also I have lived long enough to notice a pattern of hard stylist who abuse their own bodies like Oyama don't enjoy longevity whereas soft systems practicioners live longer. I am plagued with the same affliction as the Bull killer without his innumerable accolades and accomplishments but sharing some of the same physical abuse through old-school training. OSS and respect 🐯
