What you should know about Kyokushin Karate Timaru
Tradition has it that Bodhidharma, an Indian Buddhist Monk, journeyed to China about the year AD527 to establish the Zen School of Buddhism. He is said to have formed the exercises from watching the movements of animals and birds and he concentrated also on various methods of breathing. The monks of the Shaolin temple became renowned for the martial expertise and a famous fighting art known as Shorin ji Kempo which began to spread throughout China. In 1902 Gichin Funakoshi gave a karate demonstration on Okinawa and karate became part of the official schools curriculum.
In 1917 Funakoshi was selected as the representative of Okinawa province to give a demonstration in the Martial Virtues Hall in Kyoto, Japan. In 1922 karate was introduced in earnest when the Ministry of Education staged its first National Athletic Exhibition. Sosai Masutatsu Oyama was born on July 27th, 1923, in a village in Southern Korea. With his dedication, Mas Oyama progressed quickly and by the time he was 20 years old he had obtained his fourth Dan. He found a way out of his despair by training with So Nei Chu, a Korean Master of Goju Ryu Karate.
Master So taught him the inseparability of budo and the spiritual fundamentals of Buddhism. Through vigorous training, Mas Oyama learnt to overcome the mental strain caused by solitude but Yashiro could not bear it and fled after 6 months. Many students were members of other styles and Mas Oyama would compare styles and build on his karate. The first School of Oyama outside Japan was opened in 1957 by Shihan Bobby Lowe in Hawaii.
After the demonstration Shihan Bobby Lowe met Mas Oyama and arranged to train with him. Bobby Lowe's father was an instructor of Kung Fu so he had done much training in the Chinese Martial Arts. Mas Oyama invited Bobby Lowe to Tokyo to train with him and Bobby Lowe did and trained for over a year and a half. The building of the World Headquarters started in 1963 and was officially opened in 1964. Kyokushin had started its spread around the globe and at present is one of the largest martial art organization in the world.
It goes without saying that a style is only as strong as the students who represent it. He took the basics he learnt in the dojo, and through intense and dedicated training, he made these techniques work for him
