I saw this from the dojo website of Nakamura Makoto Shihan and think everybody can give a try. This is a fun quiz of some Kyokushin knowledge and trivia. There are "iro obi" and "kuro obi" chapters and each contains 30 questions. Due to the language difference some questions will lose much of their meaning in the translation process so I have chosen to omit them. For the "Kuro Obi" chapter please visit http://www.kyokushin4life.com/forums/open-discussion/4540-kyokushin-quiz-part-2-a.html

Thank you for those answers!

I was happy to see my results. It looks like I've been studying my terminology, and information enough to make a good show on this test.

I know this is a very old post, but it needs a slight correction with

17. Which of the following is not a Kata?
A. Taikyoku sono ichi
B. Sokugi taikyoku sono yon
C. Pinan sono ichi
D. Taikyoku sono san

Sokugi taikyoku sono yon is a kata. Yoko geri to the on the turns, mawashi geri on the sides and ushiro kakato mawashi geri going forwards and on the return. OSU

Never heard of it , when did it come in to being ? as I think it is meant to be the incorrect answer.

We have never done the Sokugi katas here (though they do exist but I thought there was only three originally). Im not sure when they were brought in to be honest.

OSU Bloke , I knew they existed but as you said I was only aware that there was 3 of them that's what confused me .

I know about the fourth, was a requirement of 1st kyu. It may have been one made by Hanshi John Taylor

Just looked at the post you directed us to , very informative and indepth , there's a lot of stuff there that wasn't around when I started Kyokushin , so it's not beyond someone creating a Sokugi # 4 is it ?

Yon is a bit tricky, launching ushiro Kakato mawashi Geri from zenkutsu dachi and landing back into zenkutsu i find awkward. Definitely the hardest of the 4. I'll try and dig up a video of it

Osu, thank you!!!!! My technique still needs work, especially spin kick from left foot.

Actually, it is not that noticeable - those spinning kicks look good and makes me embarrassed that I'm getting older ...:o Way to go and keep it up.

I just wonder what the idealogy was in creating these sokugi kata based on Taikyoku embusen ...

Sokugi 1, 2 & 3 katas were introduced by Sosai Mas Oyama.
I have no info about the #4, but would like to.

Please see this post: http://www.kyokushin4life.com/forums/showpost.php?p=234848&postcount=24

Osu!

Osu Fred this is for the list. Sokugi juji kata. Also needs work, but gives you an idea.
