I will watch this again and again to get the most out of it. It's the rhythm that's most interesting and the connection with the bunkai. Much of our training in class is simply rote learning.

Osu, thanks for your comment. Try and incorporate some of these ideas that appeal to you in your classes and hopefully you can add a few layers of personal subtlety within what might otherwise be simple repetition.

Does this apply to jka shotokan style? Or is something different or you teach jka? I gona try nidan to end of this term and graduate

Thanks for your comment. I was JKA from 1974 to 2000 but found the group stifled any evolution. Certain elements in my teaching may vary from other organizations, and it is best for you to try each approach to develop what you feel makes most sense. Ultimately all the JKA instructors during the Nakayama sensei years were very different from each other. We can learn from them all.

Thank you, Sensei! Following the advice you gave in the 2024 winter camp session on Heian Nidan, I've struggled to break the habit of turning into strong hanmi with gyaku kaiten. My reaction was to practice with jun kaiten, just as strongly, but it seemed very awkward. Here, if I interpret what I'm seeing correctly, shuto-uke does not depend as much on koshi no kaiten as, say, uchi-uke.

I think, the origin of bringing the feet together, while moving forward in Zenkutsu-Dachi, is about moving around the foot of the opponent. I think, this got lost because of the emphasis on sport karate.

@myeramimclerie7869 Жыл бұрын
Amos Sensei, I've got a question. When moving forward in Zenkutsu-Dachi, when do you start your Tzuki? As soon as you start moving your legs, or halfway through the step? Of course it's clear, that both arms and legs end at the same time. I'm convinced you taught that both also start at the same time, but the last time I visited your seminars was like 10 years ago, so my mind might be playing some tricks. We had that discussion of when to start the Tzuki in our Karate University club and I'm confused. 😅 Thanks in advance.
@richardamos3173 Жыл бұрын
Osu , thanks for your interest. Oizuki is a big challenge, and I think it's designed not just to step and punch something, but to create synchronicity of movement. Therefore, as much as possible, we should switch everything on at the same moment and just keep finessing that. The gears are different but everything should mesh and be a single unit. Starting the punch at halfway contradicts that. Strategically, you can hang back and observe the opponent but that shouldn't be the default. Either it's smoother and smoother or it's not. Simple as that, really. But super difficult!

With all due respect to Nakayama-sensei, I do prefer the version with first extending the arm as practiced by Kanazawa-sensei. I like to think of it as a parry to a swinger or something, and then the Age-Uke slamming right into the neck. But then again, I would have a slight critic here, as the extended hand should go BELOW the striking arm, as you're clearing the swinger out of the way to get a clear path towards the neck.

Hello; I observed not only in Karate but in many many things that the wiser or ancient Masters did not over think stuff. Most were "naturals" too. However; this point of view that you are explaining, is well worth and would be good (in this case Karate) to see the (possible) whole picture. Thanks

Very enjoyable to join in with. I did notice quite a few differences in blocking. For instance, I was always shown in Uchi uke to bring fist under the arm pit then out.
@richardamos31733 жыл бұрын
Osu, thanks for your comments. I've always tried different ways and evolved through experience. Bringing the hand under the armpit seems to me a "hand-based" movement rather than "body-based", which I want. Plus, one reason of the kamae/prep is to lure the opponent, so having the prep arm at the lower ribs gives that opening to the chest. Also it's cleaner to block with the opposing hand while you prep the uchi-uke hand, which should then go directly towards the opponents jaw or cheek or intercept the on-coming attacking arm. Hard to explain in short sentences but try it and ask yourself whether closer under the armpit could possibly be correct.
