I do shotokan and the dojo that I study at is very traditional. We don’t even hold tournaments at my dojo and most of our training revolves around kumite.

My sensei was a student of nakayama, and nakayama was a student of funoshki. My sensei is now a 8th degree black belt (his name is shigeru takashina). I’m not sure if that’s the reason why we arent a “sports style” dojo or what but in my dojo we are extremely traditional. Not one bit of “sports style” shotokan here.
