I'm looking for a dojo where I can train full contact/bare knuckle karate in Hanoi.
I'm not looking for clubs that practice points fighting (karate styles like goju kai, shotokan, wado ryu, etc), but rather a place that teaches a style like kyokushin, ashihara or daido juku.
I found a really nice dojo when I was in Saigon, but alas: I live in Hanoi.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Let me know if you find a place, I used to do MMA for years and would like to get involved in more Jujitsu based training

Yep Steve, will do. If I don't find the type of Karate I'm looking for, I might actually also (just like you) be interested in Jujitsu – at least if it is possible to find the no-nonsense Brazilian variety here.

Hey Steve, I am also a jujitsu/MMA guy... or I was before coming to Nam. I looked for awhile and there is boxing around, but full-contact stuff is really difficult to find. Most of the Karate is traditional kata-based with little or only point type contact. I have been doing Judo instead as it is the closest thing to Jujitsu I could find. Maybe if we can get a couple people together we could start a small group to cross-train?
Hey, I just wanted to know if anyone would be interested in getting together and doing some cross training and sparring? I might have a good space available if we can find some people who would be interested in that.

You've got my vote! A sparring session, say once a week, would be really good. I don't imagine it being full contact all the time - I need my face for work LOL - but any kind of cross training would be great.
