SELF DEFENSE FORUM AND MMA CHAT

This self defense forum is for Karateka or any martial artists to share their views and experience on Karate and it's use for fighting and self defense. Because this is a forum on Karate bunkai (applications) for real life situations, we shall not discuss Karate for sports or competitions here. I'm especially interested to see Karateka from all walks of life sharing their views on effective street fighting techniques and usage of pressure points strikes. You may also post your views on Shotokan kata and it's usefulness in training for self defense purposes. Finally, there is a members lounge for you to hang out and chat leisurely with each other.

You may also chat instantly in our MMA chat room below to interact with all the other visitors to this site, and me if I'm online. I would love to hear your views regarding Karate, BJJ, Boxing, Muay Thai, MMA or any martial arts in our MMA chat room.

Our self defense forum is unique in the sense that it focuses mainly on Karate kata, bunkai and techniques for real life situations, not for sports or competitions. It's a virtual gathering place for Karateka who wants to share and learn jissen (real combat) kumite for self defense. Despite the few postings, our forum do have some very interesting and hot topics.
