Shintaiikudo: Ultimate Self-Defense by Makoto Hirohara
Makoto Hirohara, who achieved back-to-back victories in the All-American Karate Challenge, teaches the ultimate self-defense art known as "Shintaiikudo." This martial theory discards all flashy, impractical, and wasteful movements that leave openings.
Shintaiikudo isn't a sport combat art. It focuses on responding appropriately and effectively to an opponent's movements to protect oneself in case of emergency. Rather than aiming to defeat the opponent, its goal is to avoid losing. Founder Makoto Hirohara explains the theory of handling techniques in Shintaiikudo.
The DVD includes special video features: a dedication demonstration from 2002 to 2006 (approximately 7 minutes) and scenes from training sessions held at the Hiroshima Direct Control Dojo in January 2007 (approximately 25 minutes).

Makoto Hirohara (formerly Makoto Yoshida)
- Born in Hiroshima in 1961. Joined the Ashihara Dojo of the Kyokushin Kai Karate in 1977. From 1984 to 1988, he was instructed at the Ashihara Headquarters.
- In 1989, he moved to the United States. That year, he participated in the All-American Sabaki Challenge in Colorado, Denver, winning the heavyweight division. Later, he opened the Ashihara L.A. branch.
- The following year, he won the All-American Sabaki Challenge in the heavyweight division again. However, he began to feel contradictions in the handling within the framework of matches and stopped his activities as a player.
- Since then, he has discarded all movements that are impractical, wasteful, or leave openings and developed Shintaiikudo.
- Additionally, he studied under Darma Yoga Docho, Noriko Nagano, mastering the ultimate mind-body strengthening technique, merging it with Shintaiikudo.
- He returned to Japan in 1995 and left the Ashihara Dojo. He has been dedicated to teaching Shintaiikudoo based in Hiroshima ever since.
