About BKK Wales

All clubs (dojos) are accredited by the International Federation of Karate (IFK) through the British Kyokushinkai Karate (BKK). The form of Karate we practice is based on a style of full contact karate, Kyokushinkai founded in 1964 by Masutatsu Oyama. Kyokushin training consists of three main elements: technique, forms, and sparring. These are sometimes referred to as the three “K’s” after the Japanese words for them: kihon (basics), kata (forms), and kumite (sparring). Kyokushin develops physical confidence in youngsters which along with the development of physical self discipline, helps young people to achieve more in all aspects of their lives.
