Did you ever put those drills into practice? Your post is 5 years old....You probably don't have the same account any longer

Yeah but not very effective in a fight, unless opponent is a statue or is sucker punched!

They aren't free sparring here.

You are incorrect - These techniques are not being performed properly to the Shotokan standard.

quickstep that’s the way to train not this point style olympic karate tournaments and shit

Osu!

These techniques look robotic because they are being performed improperly.

Infernalcx I make shotokan karate with sensei Büki and Kohl at SV Tora Berlin and he is really cool

their attacks are done wrong which makes them slow and weak. trust me there are better examples of shotokan out there.

​@@keystotheboxStop it! U don't know what u are talking about.

May sound like a stupid question but I am currently doing shotokhan karate so I just wonder what moves you think are unrealistic.

That's hard to believe

The Dark Lord Sauron !​ ummmm I know were your coming from Dark lord. Nothing wrong with karate, I love it. However self taught shotokan, best fighter in the world. Should enter UFC then.

+Carlo Peroni unfortunately UFC isnt a good basis to be the greatest fighter in the world, it has so many rules that most lethal martial arts have very limited use in the ring...the greatest fighter in the world is most likely to be an unknown guy or maybe in prison already

+Carlo Peroni hey there mate . reason ppl make fun of karate is because the most common karate style is kyokoshin which is dulled very bad to fit sport style . they barely have guard and relay on surprise roundhouse kicks, also no hits over the chest . so the net is full of kyokoshin trainees getting they are ass kick all over the place especially by any kung fu style . thats the reason most ppl make fun of karates . but rly there are karate styles like shotokan which are very good but they are left unnoticed because are not that popular

karate is a totally incomplete martial art, if you are not hitting another persons head you are doing something wrong simple as that.. boxing, kickboxing, muay thai, wushu all superior to karate because you actually fighting the other person. and yes i have been doing kickboxing for 5 years including competitions.

@@yagzyalcntas553 what karate are you talking about? I train Karate and we hit everywhere, including groin.

@@yagzyalcntas553 then your training is incomplete. Every art is incomplete every art has somthing it lacks none is better then the the other but a well balenced blend creats a well rounded artist. And a siund mind.

@@yagzyalcntas553 No way. I trained in Shotokan for 3 years and we hit everywhere.

Good

Well said, sir.

"Most traditional karate technique are designed to finish not to bounce about on mats and score points." That is a 100% true statement, the very essence of the traditional way of doing karate is to kill with one blow. The combo moves you would tend to see karateka's use in free sparring and UFC is pretty much solely for competition, that is NOT how karate is to be applied in a real life violent situation. ~ Zak Burke 2nd Dan Black Belt Shotokan Karate

100% correct!

@ Pietrasantino, well expressed. :)

ahahahaah ''bounce on the mat'' hahaahaha i agree to an extend, you mean the excessive bouncing like rabbits bouncing, because in every competetive sport, the one who wins mostly is the one who is agile on his feet, yes bouncing lightly on the balls of your feet without leaving the ground, that's the correct way as for scoring that's the evolution of sport and its good, and its what brought karate into olympics. the trainning you see in the video is trainned in most karate that also does sports karate, doesn't change SHIT, the moves here we see are super robotic like the fuck this is never goind to happen in a real match fight, when stamina drops and you gasp for air, none of this shit will apply, few and very few most effective moves will be available in your game, all those fancy micro details you see the teacher shows is just to expand the game you have, try to do some of these moves in a real match that has scoring, ye you won't do shit, most of you idiots never fought a karateka that does point sparring, you won't see him coming and most of your slow as fuck moves will be seen from miles and easy to evade. so keep saying shit about martial arts that have evolved into something much more interesting than pure brutal crap. to knock someone out you don't need lots of ''badass'' looking shit, you can knock people out with just 1 kizami zuki period. now go back re educate your stupid black belts.

Esse é rápido

Hehe he speaks german and he is my karate trainer ;D And yes he is very good karate fighter...
