Wondered...
Not Karate but I started doing MMA for fitness purposes.
Bruno is a karate guy. Black belt if not way more.
Glen is a Karate Guy,I think heavy into it at one time.
It's been a while for karate but 3rd degree in Isshin Ryu and a purple in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
I think Glen & Bruno do other martial arts than Karate ?
Ju Jutsu myself.
Kristian,
change the criteria from Karate to Martial Arts in general & I am sure there is a lot more who practice 1 form or another
I have tried several over the years depending on where I lived/worked & what was available there.
International Tae Kwon Do in WA - 6 months
Rhee Kwon Do in NSW - 5 months,
Calliope Martial Arts “CMA” in Gladstone Qld 2 years until our Sensei Anthony McTigh succumb to the effects of Agent Orange & committed suicide - (CMA was a local small freestyle club with traditional roots in Gōjū Kai, Aikido, Ninjitsu & Jujitsu, Our was one of the Original Gōjū Kai henchmen of Australia with Bob Janes, Malcolm Anderson & Richard Norton prior to the starting of Zen do Kai )
Wing Chun & Maui Thai in Mackay QLD training under Stephan Fox (World Muaythai Council) – 5 months
Zen Chi Ryu which became Zen9 - in Gladstone Qld 18 months this was a small freestyle club with traditional roots in Zen do Kai, Brazilian Jujitsu (BJJ) & Kung Fu - “Shihan” Peter Reilly recently passed away from Cancer so the club was closed.
I have always personally preferred the less traditional freestyle systems, where the shortest or most direct action from a mulitude of styles is used to minimise your exposure to a threat.
I believe all kids should have & benefit from some form of Martial Arts experience to learn the discipline & self-control that come with practicing them.
Attachment 183001Am a 6th degree kinda Guy,come at me with your Karate Crap and you wil get a .357 mag between your eyes:)
Traditional TKD and Hapkido here. Love to hear anything about the camp, or experiences in any art.
