Two sweeps, at 4:54 and 4:58. Coincidence? Love the atmosphere there. Reminds me of my sensei. Big OSU from the Netherlands!

Shihan Brandon Denito is a funny man 😆🙏

[@prvtthd401]

He is calm smooth and having fun. Are you first kyu?

[@SaikouKarate]

Hard to believe he is above 60 years old right? Yes :)

@@SaikouKarate that's cool, I always thought you were first dan. Your brown belt looks darker than our brown belts 😂. So when are you going for shodan?

[@SaikouKarate]

@@prvtthd401I have had this color for years 😂 honestly I don’t mind the color too much, but I’ll probably go for it at the end of this year I think.

[@prvtthd401]

@@SaikouKarate Good luck!

[@InamberI]

Serious question. Why nobody there cover their heads?

[@SaikouKarate]

Serious answer: the ruleset only allows kicks and knees to the head, not hand strikes, and keeping the hands around chest height is better under those rules

[@nicholasgreen339]

@@SaikouKarate And not worrying about punches To the head allows to Use other skills well develop other skills Going to the head with punches Isn't that impressive The arms and hands r more mobile Than legs. A person can be inflexible But still be able to Hug someone... .

Very slow. Is that the image of a lion in the corner?

I've watched nearly all videos of your channel. I love it. @SaikouNaNoDa- As someone who has been training kyokushin since about my entire life, there are very few channels on youtube that posts tutorial type content about kyokushin and the one's that do are usually world champions like marsel mansurov who may post one or two vids about very specific things like a very particular technique. nobody at all on youtube talks about generalized theoretical topics like how to use sabaki, how to pressure your opponent when it comes to kyokushin and things of that sort and you are the only one in this regard. Finding such videos for mma, boxing and even non contact karate is pretty easy but no one at all makes vids like you do about kyokushin. Keep it up, Osu! btw don't read my name

[@SaikouKarate]

Thanks a lot for your comment, means a lot! I agree! The original reason we wanted to make a channel on KZbin is because there is such a big lack of such content, which is a shame! There is a lot of interesting things to talk about related to this martial art :) Osu

@@SaikouKarate I hope you will grow out into a big Kyokushin channel similar to other MA channels that represent their arts. Maybe one day you have such a big presence that you start collabing with those big MA youtubers which brings attention to Kyokushin.

[@SaikouKarate]

@@prvtthd401It would be great if we could bring more attention and growth to this martial art through KZbin! Just got to keep it up and learn more and more about what’s needed for creating good videos😎
