  • The Organization and Regulation of Full Contact Martial Arts: a Case Study of Flanders

External Editors: Bryan Hogeveen and Brennan K. Berg Received: 29 April 2014; in revised form: 15 November 2014 / Accepted: 24 November 2014 / Published: 28 November 2014 Abstract: To date, martial arts involvement is often described in controversial terms. While some studies report increased anti-social behavior as a result of martial arts involvement, other findings refer to a more positive social and personal development. This paradox has resulted in an ambiguous public discourse on their value and legitimacy as socially accepted sports, often leading to a dichotomization between “good” and “bad” styles of martial arts. Up until now however, there has been a lack of empirical proof that this “good versus bad” perspective divides along the lines of specific martial arts styles. Consequently, the distinct moral and medical concerns regarding the effects of involvement in harder martial arts—combined with their increased popularity, as well as their perceived positive outcomes for specific target groups—have resulted in a growing demand among policy makers to develop (or rethink) their strategy towards the regulation and support of these sports.

  • MARCH 2021 Page 1 of 126 PRESIDENT's MESSAGE
    NEWSLETTER MARCH 2021 Page 1 of 126 PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE Page 2 of 126 Echo Sport Replay: Baker on steering kickboxing towards Olympic heights March 26, 2021 By Stephen Leonard GROWING up on Clifden Road in Ballyfermot from the 1960s to the ’80s, Roy Baker was a quiet and reserved child enjoying life with family and friends in a close-knit community. Yet over the following years the borders of his small world would be rolled right back as he became Director of Transformation at SSE Airtricity and rose through the ranks of his beloved sport, kickboxing, to eventually spearhead its drive towards inclusion in the Summer Olympics programme. Indeed today Roy Baker is President of both Kickboxing Ireland and the World Association of Kickboxing Organizations (WAKO) which Roy Baker looks back on a journey from his early days in Ballyfermot to becoming President of Kickboxing Ireland and caters for some five and half million members World governing body WAKO Photo by Paddy Barrett across the globe. The founder of the world’s biggest annual kickboxing tournament, the Irish Open, he and his team have played a huge part in seeing the sport garner official recognition from both the International Olympic Committee and more recently the Olympic Federation of Ireland as kickboxing continues its pursuit of inclusion among the 30 plus sports that make up the Summer Games. A combination of his father's social activism and the confidence he, himself, gained in combat as a multi-European and World champion kickboxer, would see the timidity Baker experienced as a child replaced by a resilience and competitiveness that was to prove essential in him effectively taking control and setting the course for his sport both here in Ireland and across the world.

  • One-On-One with Hanshi Patrick Mccarthy by Ben Ryder
    One-on-One With Hanshi Patrick McCarthy By Ben Ryder BR: Whilst you are most prominently known for your historical research and kata application practices you had a successful competitive career in traditional martial arts. What were they? PM: I was known as a triple threat [kata, kobudo and kumite] and competed all over Canada and the United States in open competition from the late 1960's through the mid-1980's. I'm not sure just exactly how many tournaments I won but it was a lot. I won the North American Karate Championships in 1974 and again in 1978, and also took five Canadian national titles during the early to mid- 1980's. I was Triple Crown athlete [kata, kobudo & kumite] and consistently rated amongst Canada's top ten competitors. BR: You then relocated to Japan where you were one of the first generation of western shoot fighters in the UWFI. How did this type of competitive format differ from your previous encounters and how did your training have to change? PM: Day and night! In those days rounds were 10-20 minutes long and training was literally, "a lifestyle!" I first tried shoot-boxing but after one professional fight decided to move over to the UWFI as I felt too confined grappling with boxing gloves. BR: As well as karate you studied many other classical arts, which ones and to what degree? PM: I studied several styles Chinese quanfa but predominantly Hung Gar, Do Pai, Five Form Fist and Pai Lum. I started out with Judo in the mid-1960's under Dutchie Schell, took my first karate lesson in Kyokushin with Adrian Gomes in 1968, and started Chito Ryu in 1970 under Tsuruoka Sensei when my family moved from the small port city of Saint John to the metropolis of Toronto.

No matter how difficult the situation may appear, it does not entirely own us. It can't take away our freedom to respond, our power to act, our passion and commitment for and to our sport.
