Introduction: KKNY / Kyokushin USA is a direct Branch of the International Karate Organization (IKO) Kyokushinkaikan. We are a worldwide organization of karate practitioners in 120 countries and headquartered in Tokyo, Japan. Students have access to a network of Dojos, camps, seminars and a regional, national and international competitive tournament circuit with events around the world.
The full-contact martial art of Kyokushin Karate may be intimidating to beginners, but Kyokushin is really for everyone. Here in the NYC area, we have students as young as 4years old to well into their 70's. Meeting new students, helping them to set personal goals and see them to fruition is our greatest achievement as instructors. Bringing the ideals and philosophy of Kyokushin to the masses is our ultimate goal.
