  • martialinstinct.ro Instinct Martial Arts & Sports

  • i dont know who has the best martial art,that person is very lucky.xD

  • DId Koncho Ninomya study with Ashihara before he became the soke of Enshin Karate?

  • @osensei2987 Yup! Kancho Ninomiya was student of Kancho Ashihara for about 20 years, first under the kyokushin style and later under the Ashihara Karate Kai Kan...

  • @osensei2987 Not Soke, Kancho.....but yes he did

  • XD at 0:25 the guy walks out of the elevator as if nothing happened.

  • Ashihara is awesome and all, but you'd never know it by this video.

  • @anthonysmith73 i bought this DVD from ebay.just check ebay everyday and you will see.also ashihara hideyuki made 2 dvds(videos) during 1988 i bought this DVDs from hossain narker south africa ashihara karate.

  • you are absolutely right QuanYin71!

  • i read or heard somewhere that Ashihara does not have as much kata as the kyokushin still has .

    As far as my understanding goes , Ashihara puts focus on kumite ,rather then kata .

    Please correct me if i misunderstand ,

    Osu !

  • Then it's awesome.

  • Ashihara can probably be described as a more intelligent, advanced form of kyokushin. However, it must be said that the best kyokushin teachers and fighters also teach and use the sabaki method. The same goes for those who train and teach shidokan, seidokan, .... good full contact karate always incorporates circular movement.

  • I wouldn't call it more intelligent, just Kyokushin with a twist. It's not the style but the teacher, as you mentioned. Ashihara had the courage to break away from Kyokushin so he had to make it different somehow, hence highlighting the area of sabaki which is as much a part of Kyokushin, just not really taught as well.

  • yes, BUT, the old philosophy of kyokushin kai was to move forward, always, constantly, confront head -on, in contrary to the sabaki method. Kyokushin kai works better if you are bigger/stronger, but sometimes need to use technique instead of pure stamina.

  • music is GODLIKE

  • Master Ashihara was the real deal street fighter!

  • bad ass intro! definitely kenka karate

  • Excuse my ignorance, but "Kenka Karate"? The video is a promo for Ashihara Karate, not long after Ashihara left Kyokushin.

    Osu!

  • "kenka" means brawling.

    Kenka karate was a nickname for kyokushin back when Ashihara was still a kyokushin fighter.

    Although back in the day it was used by more art focused styles as a derogatory remark on the type of fighting karate that is kyokushin and now Ashihara karate, it was not really taken as such :-)

    Basically it means that it is karate for fighting, not for looking pretty.

  • Thank you for enlightening me, kolsyrade.

  • a classic

  • OSU! Former kyokushin Shihan Ashihara is always been an god fighter and person, we kyokushin community we has always respect him OSU!!!!!

  • I started ashihara karate in srilanka where could i downlaod any techniques ?

  • hahahaha he beat the dud eup in the elevator hahahaha that guy coulda been grabbing him to tell him he droppe dhis wallot or something hahahahhaahaha

  • ashihara karate the greatest!

  • Ask your Enshin Sensei where Enshin comes from...

  • If i remember well Enshin kaikan comes Ashihara or am I wrong ?

  • Ashihara and Joko Ninomiya -the founder of enshin both became famous in kyokushin during the 70ies, when ashihara broke out of Kyokushin 1980 joko joined him as second in command. In 1988 Ninomiya broke out of Ashihara to found enshin karate.

  • Joko Ninomiya formed Enshin, based on Kyokushin kai, ala Ashihara, with a dash of Judo thrown in for good measure.

  • I wana see if there's a school in L.A

  • I would like to see a combination of all karate styles into one style.

  • Very unlikely. Ashihara Karate is very different from the traditional styles of Goju-ryu, for example. That beeing said, there are several open tournaments where different styles compete under the same rules.

    Also, Ashihara Karate is constantly evolving, and does find inspiration from all karate styles, judo, boxing etc.

  • Magaling parang aikido steps halo ang Karate!

    Mabuhay si ashiraha Hep Hep huray!

    Gelbert

  • great fighter and good karate!

  • Kancho Ashihara was one of the greatest inovetors of Jissen Kumite! I visited the Hombu Dojo in Ehime, Japan about 5 years ago. I have a great picture of this great facility.
