Ashihara ryu

The style is characterized by a systematic approach to free fighting. Both competition (full contact) and self-defense are in the foreground. This is due to the fact that forms of movement have been adopted from Jiu Jitsu . The Ashihara ryu has its own katas . The style is mainly common in Japan and the United States. Hideyuki Ashihara held the main line until his death.

Ashihara Ryū in Germany

Marcel Vanderschaeghe and Jürgen Höller were the first Germans to begin teaching in this style and officially introduced it in Germany in 1994. David C. Cook (9th Dan) and Dave Jonker led the Ashihara International Karate Organization (AIKO) at the international level and nationally it was represented by Vanderschaeghe.
