The Ultimate Guide to Kyokushin Karate and Kyokushin Budokai

This site is the premier English language resource for all things Budokai.  It is the home of The ULTIMATE Guide to Kyokushin Budokai and Shane's Budo Diary: A Year in the Life of a Full Contact Martial Artist.

Kyokushinbudokai.org is a freely available resource of benefit to practitioners of Kyokushin Budokai, Kyokushin Karate (aka. 'Kyokushinkai'), Judo, Jiu Jitsu (aka. Ju Jitsu), Free Fight and Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) worldwide and new content is being added daily.

As a student of Kyokushin Budokai, I have spent thousands of hours researching the web, in four different languages, in an effort to gain as much knowledge as possible concerning the International Kyokushin Budokai and Jon Bluming (it's founder) and background information concerning the martial arts that make up the Kyokushin Budokai system.  Through this website, it is my intention to save you such pains!  The results of my research are now available without cost to all visitors of this site. 

Osu!
