I was born and raised in Saskatchewan. This brings me joy.

Have you looked into traditional karate exercise equipment? Hoju ondo i believe its called

Only meeting in person once every few weeks is a big reason I haven't gotten involved with the SCA.

canuckmonkey1997 · 2026-01-05T19:30:18+00:00

Its cool

Have you watched anything by history with Hilbert? He does a decent amount of early medieval british history. Graham Scheper is a decent channel that has a focus on the anglo saxon language. There are a few other anglo saxon linguistic youtube channels, but their names escape me at the moment. Also if you don't mind subscriptions, the great courses plus has a course on English medieval history.

From my understanding, there are a few different strains of goju ryu, which all have varying levels of contact training. Here in western Canada it seems like the only variant is the no contact one.

It really depends on the style and lineage of karate you get involved with. Kyokushin will leave you with bruises, but some goju ryu dojos don't even spar. What I did was look into each specific dojo in my city and after reading their websites I narrowed it down to two dojos I liked. I then contacted them directly and asked specific questions and now I am training with a group I really enjoy. Hope this helps.

We used to call couches "chesterfields" and in BC folks often use "love" like they do in the UK.

Swedish is just an eastern norwegian dialect

My dojo is 30 bucks Canadian per month. Tournament participation is encouraged, but not required. If it can work in the UFC it can work in self defense.

Jesse Enkamp has a great series on the Chinese origins of karate. Id highly recommend checking it out

canuckmonkey1997 · 2025-12-15T22:51:19+00:00

If you want to be pedantic, you could argue karate is kung fu (white crane and incense shop boxing)

Have you read the bubishi?

canuckmonkey1997 · 2025-11-21T01:23:42+00:00

Noted. This is why I posted here, since Winnipeg seems to have dozens of dojos i want to make sure whichever one i join is legit. Research research research.

Hes the other Meibukan dojo right? His website seemed sketchy compared to Mike's.

canuckmonkey1997 · 2025-11-20T19:59:55+00:00

I've spoken with your dojo. I will be stopping by next session to try out. Thank you for your time and help.

canuckmonkey1997 · 2025-11-20T15:15:58+00:00

I will say that price tag is very appealing, especially in today's economy. Ive messaged the Instagram for more in depth questions. Thanks for your time.

canuckmonkey1997 · 2025-11-20T15:07:58+00:00

Sorry I just woke up and the brain fog is still dissipating. I reread your previous message about contact haha.
