    This is raw footage from "The Bunkai Bash" in June 2013. For our DVDs, we film in studios with professional cameramen, soundmen, directors and editors. This was done with a pocket camera in a field at the height of the British "Summer" :-)
    The sound is not great due to the strong wind, an emergency helicopter landing in an adjacent field, and mobile phone interference. Hopefully you'll be able to follow it though.
    This clip shows my take on some of Gichin Funakoshi's nine karate throws as shown in his book, "Karate-Do Kyohan". The throws shown are Katawa Guruma ("Cripple Wheel"), Kubiwa ("Neck Ring") and Byobu Daoshi ("Topple a Folding Screen"). I also briefly touch on Tani-Otoshi ("Valley Drop"); both the technique shown by Funakoshi and the throw that more commonly has that label.
    As Funakoshi wrote, "There are many different ways and variations for executing throwing techniques" so what we have here is my variations on the throws. While the throws themselves are largely as Funakoshi shows them, one significant difference is that I teach them firstly from a grip, as opposed to from a blocked punch as Funakoshi does. Enjoy!
    All the best,
    Iain

    I've been a practicing martial artist for 38 years, and I have black belts in several styles. I have always considered myself a "Karate Man" as I first studied Kenpo before moving on to Shotokan. I obtained black belts in Judo and Hapkido, studied boxing, kick boxing, self defense, and BJJ to complete my system.
    Pretty much everything was here in Karate all along. It's too bad we weren't taught this way from the beginning.

      @@emperorjimmu9941 If you are going to call every "microadjustment" a technique, the techniques are limitless.
      Once you learn how to use leverage, timing, balance, and other principles, the art opens up like a flower.
      I stand by my point. There was nothing I learned that was "out of place" from my karate education.
      BJJ is derived directly from judo, by the way.

    I live in northern England (a few miles from the Scottish border) and I was born in the English city of Manchester. I have many relatives from Scotland and consider myself “British” because that refers to the whole island and does not “cut me off” from any part of my family or heritage.

      practicalkatabunkai : I always liked the term Anglo-Celtic. I believe they use that term in Australia, but could be wrong.

    Great video, very aducational. I sometimes had problems to implement these kind of throws out of headbutting, kneeing and stuff but these training-entries might be helpfull to find the throws in all the struggle easier. Thanks a lot!

    Excellent demonstration! You are a great instructer. I have always had "speed" but never body weight to take down a big bloke. Been taken down too many times. So I became an expert on "ground defence."

    Nicely done! We do throws like this sparingly in my dojo. I wish we could do them more often! As a side note, it's really great to see how these techniques are used in other systems.

    6:01 - Holly flip. THAT'S NEEDLE AT SEA BOTTOM, from Tai Chi. That application was so elusive from me, thanks.

    nice of course one does not want to go on the ground but if your in a big situation and the only way to get out is to a valley drop throw and get on your feet again. aikido does that very effectively and so does zen judo

    very nice work but you said its easy to be countered while doing osoto gari, but you never did a full kuzushi, if you had it would unbalanced the attacker so that he could not gain the force to counter you. as a japanese jujitsu instructor i teach Kuzushi before i teach the throw no kuzushi = strength against strength. love your vids please keep them coming!!

      A set on karate throws is in production now. The first volume will be out in a few weeks. They will be the ones to watch if throwing is the area of interest. If you subscribe to the newsletter you’ll get to know when they are ready! www.iainabernethy.co.uk/join-newsletter-and-get-two-free-e-books
