The 15th Edition of Banzai Open 21st March 2026!
The Gothenburg area in Sweden has a very rich environment when it comes to Full Contact Karate. Banzai Open international is proof of this, having grown from its humble beginnings to a well-organized tournament.
Countless championship and countless fights this year. It is hard to select “the right one” where to find them, and why it should be selected. We gathered some fights across organisations and championships – for joy and inspiration – some veterans some new blood coming up. Photo by the never resting: Okiem Sportowca
Usually we collect some fights in the end of the year. Fights we like to share, and fights that maybe have a little history behind. With today’s developments, it is no longer the same to find entire fights posted. Now it’s a live stream of 5-10 hours, and / or short reels with knockouts. We would like to share more than we can – but maybe we have someone that you might did not know about.
16th – 18th January will the 20th edition of the Wintercamp Germany be held. This years main instructor will be Edgard Sečinski / Lithuania!
Anjey Kinzerskiy, Kazakhstan – After being noticed in the 13th World Championship, the really breakthrough had to come. Historic winning The 57th All Japan Open, to neutralize the Japanese elite – and a week later do the same with several of Europe’s best athletes..
Batumi Open – highly interesting tournament! Some of the absolute best fighters from Europe – Spiced up with a significant sharp team from Kazakhstan!
57th All Japan Open will be held 18-19 October 2025, with good support from outside Japan. (picture from 52nd edition)
Camp Banzai Sweden – Gàbor Ròzsa was the headliner this year – but there is actually more that draws people to this camp than the elite trainers of the world.
If you want results and growth, you have to plan. Georgia and Latvia, the organizers of the EC 2026, are examples of this.
