Historic Tournament
Compete in one of Japan's most prestigious regional tournaments. This is a proving ground for serious practitioners—a test of both physical skill and mental fortitude.
The Hokushinetsu Tournament has been a cornerstone of regional Kyokushin competition for decades. It maintains the highest standards of technical excellence and fighting spirit, serving as a gateway to national-level competition in Japan.
"The Hokushinetsu Championship is not merely a competition—it is a gateway to understanding the soul of Japanese Karate. We seek competitors who value mastery over medals."
Immersive Training Camps
Experience intensive summer and winter training camps that combine rigorous Kyokushin practice with deep immersion in Japanese culture. This is where technique meets tradition.
Gasshuku (合宿) means "training camp" in Japanese—a period of intensive, focused practice away from daily distractions. Our camps follow the traditional format established during the Oyama era, emphasizing fundamentals, discipline, and spiritual development.
Gasshuku is not a vacation. It is a period of self-examination and growth through intensive training. Participants live together, train together, and support each other in the pursuit of excellence.
