How many Kyokushin practicons have been asked the question "why do you not punch to the face?"
And how many have answered : we do,but not in the tournaments!
To
train (or to
games) without blow
to the head is of course
much safer
than with. But if you take
the question of
self-defense,
then
you should have experience
with blows attack to the head.
Well Kyokushin
karate has
everything you need in basic
form, so the question
is perhaps
how you choose to use it?
No matter what you
favor, one sees clearly
that a
fighter who has
been with the
rules without
blow to the head, then
it is something to
learn especially in
defense. And
a fighter who is
trained to
go to the head, then it is
something you can learn
something of how the body is
weak, and the gooood feeling
of just
knuckles on your chest and
ribs. Head
or guts?!
-have fun! ;o)
