Kyokushin Kenbukai Europe

Here is the video made by Sandro Furzi , a friend not only of the Kyokushin Kenbukai school but of all Budō practitioners around the world.
Sandro is truly an exceptional person, an excellent practitioner, very cultured, and above all someone with an open mind who strives to present Budō in all its forms.
We decided to record a regular Dōjō lesson without preparing anything in advance, focusing on aspects of traditional Budō, also known as bujutsu, which is included in the word Bu of Kenbukai.
In fact, our school can also be read as Kyokushin Ken Budōkai.
Enjoy the viewing, and thanks again to Sandro and Kaichō Masahiro Kaneko , Sensei Masaki Mackey Fujii for allowing us to create this important video.

Some thoughts on the seminar held by Masaki Mackey Fujii Sensei in Italy, written by our German friends, from the Berlin dojo:

James:
We, Miguel and James, two Kenbukai practitioners from Germany, recently attended a seminar with Sensei Masake Fuji in Pordenone, Italy, hosted by Shihan Stoppa. “Hit without getting hit” was the focus, which Sensei Fuji broke down into an explanation of distancing and body orientation, breathing and the right level of tension in the body, and tai sabaki in kata and basics.

Sensei Fuji explained that in Kenbukai Kyokushin, distancing hinges on a deeper sense of miai. He showed it is not just about the space between practitioner and opponent but also the position and orientation of one’s own body, especially the core. On breathing and tension, he stressed never being fully relaxed and controlling the breath, so practitioners are constantly prepared for subsequent techniques.

For Ido Geiko, Sensei Fuji used the analogy of a slow train and a fast train. The fast train goes through all the same stops as the slow train; in the same way, a technique performed fast should go through all the same stages as that technique performed slowly. This highlighted Kenbukai karate’s focus on correct basic technique.

Sensei Fuji emphasised the core, hip movement in multiple planes, not just rotational, and contracting the side of the torso to boost the effectiveness of movement and technique, creating space for both attack and defence. He introduced new floor exercises to us, which we look forward to integrating into our training in Germany.



Miguel:
We had the pleasure of attending a seminar with Sensei Masaki Fuji in Pordenone, Italy, hosted by Shihan Stoppa. It was an inspiring experience, filled with new insights, deep reflection, and challenging yet rewarding training.
Throughout the seminar, we were warmly welcomed by Sensei Stoppa, whose hospitality made us feel at home from the very beginning. Combined with the beauty of northern Italy, the seminar became an unforgettable experience that broadened our understanding of Kyokushin Kenbukai Karate and opened new paths for our continued study and practice.

Summer Camp in Poland, July 22-26, with special guest teacher from Japan: G*i Beniya.

Seminar with Masaaki Fujii Sensei, organized by Kyokushinkenbukai Italia, with the participation of future German instructors who came to take their second dan exam. The seminar was a success, focusing on the idea of maximum efficiency that Masaaki Sensei wanted to convey through the concept of striking without being struck. Osu.

Masaki Mackey Fujii Sensei, from Full Contact Karate Magazine, May 2018.

"Fujii Masaki won the All Japan Kyokushinkan Championship title for four consecutive years, ending in 2016. In 2015, he also won the 89 kg category at the All Japan Weight Class Championship, which was held under full contact rules with strikes to the face permitted. Despite his constant commitment to competing at the highest levels of national competition, Fujii continued to set new goals for himself, maintaining a vigilant and mindful attitude during every training session. In recent years, he has also begun to dedicate himself to teaching young Kyokushinkan practitioners. He says that only recently has he begun to truly understand the deeper meaning of this role, thinking:
"Maybe this is the true meaning of what I'm doing."

See you in Italy, June 12/13/14 2026
