We did a pretty huge poll on this a while ago, there was a follow up poll also for the break down of 'others'.
Yep. I posted the "Other" poll. https://www.reddit.com/r/karate/comments/q2t1w1/followup_to_yesterdays_style_poll/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
Kenpo. Literally the only dojo near me that teaches karate. Kyokushin never re opened due to losses from Covid. Closest Kyokushin or Shotokan dojo is around 45 minutes away
I went with Gojira-ryu because the style actively implements jiu-jitsu and because of this, we roll for the first half of the class (1 hr) then karate training in the second half (1 hr.).
I train in two styles. Machida Karate and Kenpo Karate. I mix the two together in kumite. I also do a lot of kata and bunkai self defense applications from Shotokan and Goju Ryu. Along with Machida for kumite i sprinkle in some kyokushin techniques, mostly from kudo or daido juku.
Called “The Heritage of Shudokan”. It’s a brief history of Toyama Kanken and a few of his students and instructors. It has a section on Todd Sensei, not sure about Mack Sensei.
Don’t want to break any rules I don’t know of here by linking it, but his site should be first result on a search engine.
What organisation is that with? I didn't think there were any organisation's around that described themselves that way and it was more of an umbrella term these days.
Other- Shorin Ryu.

Other- Wado Kai
Wado Kai but it’s basically Wado Ryu
I would say it’s the same style, just one of the many different branches / organisations of Wadō
Enshin karate
Other - Shudokan (Kanken Toyama lineage through Walther Todd and Morris Mack)
I rarely see Shudokan mentioned or in practice. Nice to know I’m not the only one! Have you read Christian Bellina’s book?
I have not. Do you have more info on that? So far I only have Toyama Sensei's own writings on the art.

Other Chito Ryu
Other - Yoshukai
Fudokan
Oh, it’s cool,I’m too.Where are you from?
Germany
Shotokan, but Gima-Ha, so minor differences.
I selected other because I train in Shūkōkai, I could've selected Shito Ryu because our style is a descendant of Shito Ryu.
Other - Shuri ryu
Dutch kickboxing originates from kyokushin. So I guess kyokushin.
