Kyokushin Karate London Tohyama Dojo The London Tohyama Dojo teaches Kyokushin Karate as it is taught in Japan. Osu!

"To become a tenacious person in society" is what can be learnt from
London Dojo's Kyokushin Karate. Whatever the situation we are faced with, whether it be at work, at school, amongst friends or in our own families, we endeavour to promptly and harmoniously settle issues with corrective measures. By building up the soul, body and mind through training in London Dojo's Kyokushin Karate, these qualities in life can be achieved."

Osu! London has continued to enjoy mild and comfortable weather even into October this year — at least for now! Thanks to these favorable conditions, both the kids and adult classes have been able to train with greater concentration, and we have been having some excellent sessions. However, what goes up must eventually come down — that is simply the way of life. Good times do not last forever. What is important is to remember clearly how you move and how you think when you are performing at your best. Then, when things are not going so well, compare yourself with that version of you and make the necessary adjustments. In other words, “Kinihasshi-Kannibinnarukoto” - being able to respond instantly to changing circumstances and remain keenly perceptive is what leads us toward mastering the spirit and techniques of “Kakkofubatsuno-Shingiwo-Kiwamerukoto”— remaining unwavering and unshaken, whatever the situation. Continue training hard with the goal of becoming strong and resilient, both mentally and physically, as taught in the Dojo Kun. Osu!

Osu! If you can quickly grasp, assess and react to a situation, you can resolve problems before they arise. The same principle applies to fighting. By properly reading your opponent’s movements, then properly defend, properly counter, your kumite will improve. So, as soon as you step into the dojo, start by paying attention to what is happening around you. Train yourself to understand situations quickly and react immediately. Osu!

Osu! Cooler weather has arrived in London, making it much more comfortable to train. With the autumn grading approaching, sharpen your focus, push yourselves to the limit, and train with even greater determination. Osu!

Osu! The summer break is over, and training has resumed. This term will be a particularly busy one for everyone, with Christmas at the end of it and plenty of events and commitments along the way. Whether you are working or studying, don’t allow busy schedules to get in the way. Work hard to maintain a good balance between studies and training, or work and training. Do your best throughout the term! Osu!

Osu! Have a great bank holiday weekend! Osu!

Osu! The last training for August and special grading concluded. Next weekend is a three-day Bank Holiday weekend, so Tohyama Dojo will also be taking a short summer break until September. Recharge and come back refreshed, ready to train hard again starting September! After today’s training, the instructors enjoyed lunch together.

Osu! Our final check before next week’s graduation. Today’s training focused on correcting the finer details, particularly our stance and posture. It is important to repeat each movement accurately until it becomes natural and ingrained in the body. Osu!

Osu! Throughout August, we are taking on tough training sessions with longer periods of ido-geiko. Ido-geiko is where we learn to apply the techniques developed through kihon while moving. Ido-geiko leads to kata, and kata leads to kumite. The purpose of ido-geiko is to develop the ability to maintain proper posture while moving, remain constantly aware of the shifting of your centre of gravity, and move in a way that allows you to make full use of 100% of your speed and impact. Ido-geiko is demanding, but whenever you start to feel tired, take a moment to correct your posture and breathing, and keep pushing forward. Osu!
