Osu!

If you were to join an organization as a BB, I think you could have an individual membership. I'm not sure about Kyu grades though.

Osu!

Osu!

I think that you may find it difficult to join a group without being vetted by a senior member of that organization. Are there no Dojo available in your area?

Osu!

Also, why would you want to be member of an organization, but not of a dojo? I know it might be nice to feel that you're "part of a family", but I just hate to pay fees to something unnescesarry.

Indeed like taxes, Dent. I'm actually a great fan of taxes, as long as they dont involve me paying them. Luckily, I'm a sly bastard and cunningly evade this by having a low income. What my income is? Whatever the government pays me to study. Where they get the funds for that, you ask? Why, the tax payers of course. I love this little political conundrum that is the socialistic/liberalistic Scandinavian model. <3

I think I see a future politician at work.

I can't fault your logic, and I love the application.

Osu!

Sadly, no. I've thought about making elaborate schemes to make that dream happen, but for now I have to settle for graphic design. Unless I get internship, that will soon end as well.

Back on topic?

Just looking at the breakdown of organisations above I wonder if it in any way reflects the global situation.

Sosaļ Oyama's Kyokushin
I am a member the IKO1 group since the death of Sosaļ Oyama,
Like many, I am continuing my training with more enthusiasm, because I want to return to the way and spirit kyokushin without no other considerations.
Oyama built "Kyokushin".
His legacy for all is “Kyokushin”.
There are only one “Kyokushin” : Oyama's “Kyokushin” !

Osu !

Interesting post there KyokushinBARRA, but just a friendly heads up, it might clash with the Kyokushin politics rules on K4L

Osu!
The debate is open on Kyokushin in 2008. My reply is perhaps at the wrong place in that forum. What does it mean or what is interresting to say that I belong to IKO...all is perfect. We have to be "aware". The kyokushin exploded into several groups after the death of Oyama and it is time to return to basics. It was not a destroying "critics". I belong to IKO1 and I respect it. Nevertheless I'm aware and some things don't go in a good way. I don't whant to launch a stone to destroy, I'd just want to put a stone to rebuild the edifice of kyokushin as honourable strongest karate.

Osu

Smile Kyokushin unity
We all train in the same way. The choice of belonging to a group has often been a non-choice for the majority of us who have followed our masters.
However ethics, good character, moral values ... of kyokushin must be defended.
So I am for Kyokushin unity across the hard work that we do all in our dojos respecting the objectives of Sosaļ Oyama.

Osu!
