WHAT IS KYOKUSHIN
Kyokushin is the name of the style that we teach and learn. It was founded by Mas Oyama.
KYOKU means “The Ultimate” SHIN means “Truth” KAI means “Join, associate.”
The KANKU which is the symbol of Kyokushin karate originates from the Kanku kata. In this kata, the hands are raised into the sky with the thumbs and the index fingers touching, thereby forming the symbol. The fingers are represented by the points and imply ultimate or peaks. The wrists are represented by the wide sections and imply power. The centre represents infinity, implying depth. The circle enclosing the Kanku represents continuity and circular motion.
