As in Japan students become masters this is the same all over the world in many walks of life and martial arts is no different. Jissen-kai is a product of this. Jissen-kai is a system of Full contact Karate based upon Kyokushinkai, but there have been some changes and developments and this will continue under the supervision of its founder Shihan Prasanna Fernando(5th Dan) Jissen-kai is a system of Karate that use’s both full contact Karate and boxing in its teaching’s and in doing so is a devastating Self-defence system.
In comparison, Japanese kickboxing has its own distinct tradition. You will learn about the mental and physical discipline needed in this great martial art that originated and is deeply rooted in Japanese Budo.
