One of the most efficient and versatile techniques that's (probably) unique to Ashihara Karate- the Cutting Kick.
Resembling the low roundhouse kick, the cutting kick serves to upset the opponent's balance rather than to inflict pain or damage.
Depending on the position and timing relative to the opponent, the kick can be used to expose the opponent's blindspot, break down his defences, or result in a take down where he can be better controlled.

This is done in shotokan; it's just a low crescent kick variation that is often used at old school full contact tournaments but almost never at sport-karate events. I also have used the variation you mentioned in non-sport judo at range.

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

cool! OSU!

[@SoldierDrew]

The cutting-kick is also taught in Filipino Kali. Please make a video explaining the subtle differences between Ashihara & Enshin Kara Te. Thank you.

[@abhinavamandal9366]

well i am a black belt 2nd dan in ashihara style of karate from india and in our dojo i have been practicing this kick from the very beginning i started my training many yrs back

[@maevecsgo]

Well. Thats good for you sir

[@lorismarchitelli5274]

My god! What a cool video mate! Keep em coming, Ashihara karate is super interesting and i love your explanation!

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

encouraged by your support! OSU!

[@0713mas]

Oss! Very cool. I first experienced this 20 years ago in an old-school Kyokushin dojo where my Shihan often used it during sparring with the sabaki technique. We also drilled it during mawashi geri, leg conditioning partner drills, done, outside, inside, inside, outside. Dutch muay Thai often uses the cutting kick angle, as their bread and butter roundhouse, ala` Ernesto Hoost. Dutch kickboxing also calls suporting leg counter kicks, "submarine kicks". I practice most kicks three ways: break the board/ snapping, kick the can, pushing or following through like muay Thai.

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

That's so cool! OSU!

[@MichaelWilliams-mo1vv]

This is a good technique but I'd be surprised if they don't also do this in kyokushin.

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

i'm sure they already do! without grappling i'm sure! OSU!

[@Indiankarateboy]

👍

[@Pifagorass]

We do, but to break posture/momentum - i.e. as intermediate step and not as final finish. E.g. getting dominant side position and finishing with a round life shot (same as boxing just boxers know how to defend such😂)

[@renaissancemanchild7318]

These types of kicks are very common in various south East Asian martial arts, e.g. Silat, Muay Thai, Lethwei, Bando, Kali.

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

that's interesting! OSU!

[@foxesruler]

What if you don't know that this exact punch is coming... can you really react with this correctly and timely?

[@ravendon]

This is similar to kicks in Muay Thai, jujutsu, judo.

Kicking the air is bad for knees.

[@kerwynrego6624]

Trapping techniques

[@FlemmingRasmussen-y5g]

Muay thai use this kick a lot

[@Pifagorass]

Shinkiokushin has punch similar to poxing but instead of punch to face lands downward to the chest area. Bit artificial due to restrictions to punch the face snd will not find such in a point Karate.

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

That's interesting! OSU!

[@senseicorey9979]

Is Joko Ninomiya the one demonstrating in some of these clips ?

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

Probably from the old videos! OSU!

[@kermit1211]

I think this kick is also present in another kickboxing style. In the movie Undisputed 3, the main character , Yuri Boyka, throws the same technique in his last fight

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

interesting! OSU!

[@kenpo1203]

In my style of kenpo(IKCA), we use that kick to the outside of the thigh to take opponent down. We focus on street defense so a majority of our kicks are groin kicks. I like the idea of going to the inside of the thigh to break the balance.

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

That's so cool! OSU!

[@mrkaratian1239]

Give video on kicks advance

[@forwardchap]

Thanks for sharing the technique. I have always found sweeps to be very useful.

[@AshiharaKarateSG]

Thanks for your support! Back flips and tameshiwari (test breaking) doesn't seem to be part of the Ashihara syllabus, though it's not uncommon for Instructors to be knowledgable in them since it's popular for exhibitions. Ask your sensei and see what he/ she knows! OSU!
