[skurk]

So by the begining of march I will be a resident of colorado springs.Im having a hard time finding schools online cause alot of schools that I found good were never online just word of mouth. two that I have found were.

Ive researched them both but what im REALLY looking for is Kyokushin first and foremost and then either a sambo or Muay Thai school. I found alot of info on a guy who used to teach kyokushin but I think he might of closed down and I cant contact him. He wrote alot of books too.His name is Michael Lorden.

You may have to drive to Denver to find what you're looking for. The web shows a US-IFKK (Kyokushin) dojo in Denver- http://www.contactkicks.com/.

Also in Denver is the headquarters of Enshin and the home base of Enshin's grandmaster- Joko Ninomiya. http://honbu.enshin.com/

If you do find a full-contact-style school in Colorado Springs, please let me know because it's possible I might live in that area in the future also.

I used to live in Colorado Springs (96-99) while at my first duty station, near Ft Carson/Cheyenne Mtn AS. I mostly remember there being some Kempo, Kung Fu, Judo, Shotokan, Shorin Ryu and I believe Gojo Ryu.
