Yuka Kobayashi HL

This girl's skills is amazing! And she is cute as well! She is from Ashihara Karate which is an offshoot of Kyokushin Karate. They are known as knockdown karate styles, ie. full contact. They are famous for being the strongest styles of karate through their full contact sparring.

Kyokushin full contact rules allows full contact kicks, knees and body punches. They do not allow head punches or any clinching which is why it tends to look strange for first time viewers. Nonetheless they are very tough as they do not wear any gloves or shinpads. Many Japanese kickboxers tend to have a background in kyokushin or one of its offshoots. This is the reason why quite afew of Japanese kickboxers' kicks tend to be more whippy than muay thai.
