I used to go to this karate school that taught this style. My teacher was taught by a student of the third guy, Higaonna. I remember going to a some tournament that he was at, and we all got to shake his hand. I remember his hand being so callused that it felt like a rock.
When I was young I trained in Oechi-ryu in Canada. It was very much a full contact 'hard' style and training was extreme to say the least. Nothing flowery about it. Kata is not intended to communicate real fight potential and anyone in martial arts knows this. It is merely a small portion of practice like muscle memory practicing guitar. We learn the most from the elders, specially in this instance with authentic Practitioners of 8-10th Dan. I appreciated this video very much, tks. The Okinawan styles are quite renowned.
this is very much like Shao Lin art and movement. very beautiful display of movement and peace. it also looks like the Chinese martial art Hawk style movement. i love this art Kata peaceful and beautiful.
Well the form that I'm studying (shorin ryu) apparently if you put the characters together and translate them into Chinese it becomes shaolin (For the record shorin-ryu means little Forest way)
Lyoto Machida was a light heavyweight. Bas Rutten became a heavyweight champion and one of the styles he trained in was kyokushin karate. Rutten also only weighed 205 pounds when he won the title so he was essentially a light heavyweight competing as a heavyweight.
The first sensei with the strickes and direct kicks can be shuri-te, the second sensei can be naha-te, the third sensei can be tomari-te a combination of the before-mentioned
The originating master of Oechi-Ryu (Kanbun) spent years in the Fukian Province in China and studied Pwang Guy Noon if I recall my lessons many years ago.
That's the idea. At a truly high level all martial arts look the same. The closer you are to the top of the mountain, the less it matters which side you started on
Tracker Buckmann There is an art to breathing when doing kata, whilst training with certain groups I've realised not many people use there breathing as they should. When doing a kata, your breathing should tense and un-tense you (as well as you tensing your muscles). Try this do the Suparinpe Kate, whilst just breathing normally, tense up your stomach and legs. In the stance of Sanchin Dachi (Pigeon Toe Stance). Now do it again, whilst going into the stand and blocking with your forearms as shown, breath in just before, and out as you are moving into said stance. You're body/muscles with be a lot more tense.
The videos of karate masters remind me Reikichi Oya and Gichin Funakoshi of Okinawa. Karate do Nymohn was read by E. J. Harrison and he was inspired to make the Britishers familiar with Karate do. Do means way in Japanese. Harrison was a great spirited man with the black belt in judo four Dan. There were no videos and mobile phones in sixties. Only printed pictures were available to learn katas like pinan Katas, pinan shodan, pinan nidan and so on.
1st palm strikes are powerful the wind slaps, and 2nd ive never thought that bulking shoulder trap amazing, and 3rd karate mantis style? His fingertips looks sharp. Just amazing Dedication and passion.
Thank you for the very mature comment. It is so tiresome to read so much nonsense from people who a) do not train or have trained for less than six months and b) disrespect the proven arts of others through their ignorance.
Putting aside their disrespect, some people aren't aware of the true purpose of forms and patterns. They see these beautiful movements and wonder how they are effective in a fight, never realizing that the secret to the form was never in the movement itself, but the habits and purpose the movements trained into the student.
John Turner Yeah I saw the kungfu quest Doc. That was very interesting. I had just never really observed Karate before. I've always studied the Chinese arts.
John Turner only Goju ryu and toon ryu and partially shito ryu are crane based. Most shuri or shorin styles are southern Lohan or monk boxing based. While uechi ryu is almost straight up Yongtai tiger/crane boxing.
I've noticed one thing while reading youtube comments: there are quite an abundance of black belts in brazilian Jiu-jitsu AND PH.Ds in quantum theory and neuroscience who take previous time out of their busy lives of fight training and scientific studies to constantly make comments on youtube videos about subjects they wouldn't or shouldn't be interested in.

I love the comments they say karate is useless but some of the Champions are from that background same thing they say about judo some of the greatest use and are black belts thats why they call it mma mixed martial arts
cage fighting is raw and often just for the audience ,you have to remember cage fighting also is for younger people and we should just appreciate the skills of the older guys..
With training, you can move faster than you can see, or think, or feel. If you can move faster than you can see you can move faster than your opponent can see. Fast movements of light parts carry more momentum than slow movements of heavy parts; contrary to intuition. A light punch at 100mph will transfer more energy than a forceful punch moving much slower. You find yourself dazed and on the ground before you even feel pain. Karate.
Okinawa Goju ryu KArate was meant to fight of samurai, and police. now the police, and wanna be samurai study it... the spirit is dead... still one of my favourite styles. naha-te is the actual Okinawan Karate;then more was gifted from China. :)
maybe who don t know what does kata mean will say this is a shit! but his is moving slowly dess't mean it is not strong he can push and even kill with that fist but the kata is a imagination of a fight and. we make changes on the moves to make it beatiful ^^ hope u undertand that
Trafalgar I agree that MMA is great.. But Karate is not useless. My life was saved so many times and I owe it to Karate and Jujutsu. However, MMA does have the advantage of covering the weakness of Karate.. but a good Karate master can easily defeat a great MMA fighter. Try watching live Open Freestyle Tournaments, you'll see what I mean :)
The Chinese families that were invited to settle in the Island did brought them many styles . White Crane was mainly adopted and revise by the founders of Ichin Ryu.
Bom esse video,esses movimentos sinconizados,que com energia no karate chama se kata no kung fu kati,no taekwondo poose,sao movimentos simbolizando luta imaginaria utilizando vários golpes de pé e mão.
So first I have to say it... the second guy literally went Master Roshi. I was confused and bewildered watching him change his physique like that. All I could think was "I'm such a dork but that's irl Kai-o-ken!" But seriously... I trained for a few years in Okinawan Shudokan, of the Toyama lineage. I've seen my own sensei perform the first and last kata. It's more impressive at the right speeds irl. But still amazing. But the second guy! My mind is blown
You guys don't understand something people do karate not for really killing or injuring people in championships but to learn self defence and be healthy karate means one attack and one man stays on the floor MMA might be good but u cant say that kata is more show off than a man bleeding in MMA
Once demonstrating kata at delivery to the belt in karate Kyokushin, I was flunked, saying that my kata is too aggressive. Since then, I have no respect for corrupt school karate, which many in Russia, especially Kyokushin karate!
If anyone could help, hope someone sees this. There is a martial art practitioner that trains his arms by maintaining a position with them that appears like he is holding a barrel. His hair is long and I think he was Japanese. Thank you for anyone that might take the time to research!
I've always found the Kata disappointing because the observer is expected to imagine an opponent. I'd like to see some demonstrated with one or more other people so you can see how the movement applies.

The second guy looks like every martial arts grandmaster in every anime ever, or just a typical character in Baki
Uechi-ryu it is
That old man (at 2:01) looks better than most 20 year-olds of today.
that man be flexin
Haha true
i blame it on gaming
Bruh he looks bengali then japanese xDDDD
afkorss
Katas are beautiful and, when applied correctly in a fight, deadly. They are little dances of death.
The MASTERS OF KARATE. NO BULLSHIT JUST PURE SKILLS AND DEDICATION
Kata is the beauty of Karate its my heart bits.
seikoh tohyama damn his body looks so good at his age.
this is very much like Shao Lin art and movement.
very beautiful display of movement and peace.
it also looks like the Chinese martial art Hawk style movement.
i love this art Kata peaceful and beautiful.
Okinawa where Karate developed was heavily influenced by Chinese martial arts so you can see a lot of Kung Fu moves and styles back in Karate.
Well the form that I'm studying (shorin ryu) apparently if you put the characters together and translate them into Chinese it becomes shaolin
(For the record shorin-ryu means little Forest way)
Shao-lin in Chinese means "little forest."
Tyler Ralph no shit sherlock
Amazing ! Respect for so many years of body and mind work ! few mma guys will stand still in front of those Masters !
Wow their control of every breath, muscle, and never fiber in every movement is absolutely remarkable
That second guy is like Master Roshi. Scrawny old man who can hulk up at will to do his moves, then go back to being scrawny.
So, Hulk is real. Yeah.
Hahahaha
Just like All Might from My hero Academia 😂
And getting a nosebleed when looking at women :D
Hahahaha
These old men have better speed and body build than most younger guys
When people says karate does not work, I told them Lyoto Machida once became a UFC heavyweight champion.
light heavy weight....not HW
Lyoto Machida was a light heavyweight. Bas Rutten became a heavyweight champion and one of the styles he trained in was kyokushin karate. Rutten also only weighed 205 pounds when he won the title so he was essentially a light heavyweight competing as a heavyweight.
The first sensei with the strickes and direct kicks can be shuri-te, the second sensei can be naha-te, the third sensei can be tomari-te a combination of the before-mentioned
Definitely seeing the influence of mainland styles here. Except that the movement here is short and focused on speed and power. Less on deception
Top marks to Seikoh Tohyama for the beard alone.
He's badass.
+Defrash Kat silver fang
its amazing how karate after the 5 dan start looking more like the white crane of kung fu... well that is the origin any way
The originating master of Oechi-Ryu (Kanbun) spent years in the Fukian Province in China and studied Pwang Guy Noon if I recall my lessons many years ago.
yes
*Fujian province. Fukian is probably cantonese pronunciation.
Must be very ancient techniques
That's the idea. At a truly high level all martial arts look the same. The closer you are to the top of the mountain, the less it matters which side you started on
I am from india...i love karate since childhood. born to fight...even in dream I do karate

"The Secret Art of Breathing in and out"
How can I ever aquire such mastery?!

Rectum Crusher yes, I know.
Tracker Buckmann Oh okay sorry, I was explaining. As I thought you didn't know, due to your comment.
Rectum Crusher yes, I know.
Esses antigos mestres representam o verdadeiro karate
Un sensei de estos te puede sacar el corazón tranquilamente....
Impresionante!!
I can feel the power trough my screen...
"Hey grandad, you spilled my pint." These guys look solid, be impossible to knock them down.
look at the power in those hand thrusts.....seems all my life been doing katas the wrong way
malvin Ginger hair in

This lineage is 3 blocks away, there is still Karate in the U.S....these guys have great energy,
For those who talk crap and say step into cage will not do it themselves
I did my full contact but I will not sit here and bash other peoples art
Thank you for the very mature comment. It is so tiresome to read so much nonsense from people who a) do not train or have trained for less than six months and b) disrespect the proven arts of others through their ignorance.
Most of the guy that bash other people arts never even done mma themselves they watch videos on youtube and got struck with delusion of grandeurs.
Thanks man, you are honorable!
Putting aside their disrespect, some people aren't aware of the true purpose of forms and patterns.

@@MagusKali true2
They introduce the masters like high level anime characters… it’s badasss
beautiful kata...!!!
Damn I just noticed how internal Okinawan Karate is. Movements remind me of White Crane and Xinyiquan.
Because Karate has its roots with white crane kung fu.
John Turner Yeah I saw the kungfu quest Doc. That was very interesting. I had just never really observed Karate before. I've always studied the Chinese arts.
John Turner only Goju ryu and toon ryu and partially shito ryu are crane based.
Most shuri or shorin styles are southern Lohan or monk boxing based. While uechi ryu is almost straight up Yongtai tiger/crane boxing.
very rare to see such control on breathing, 1st guy is a power house on that account.
nice to watch real masters.
the 10th Dan has good body shape, reminds me of Sarutobi the 3rd Hokage
I've noticed one thing while reading youtube comments: there are quite an abundance of black belts in brazilian Jiu-jitsu AND PH.Ds in quantum theory and neuroscience who take previous time out of their busy lives of fight training and scientific studies to constantly make comments on youtube videos about subjects they wouldn't or shouldn't be interested in.
Lucky to even see on youtube! Magnificent, pure awesomeness
like the second guys intro because it was so anime like
For real it was like oh shit the scenes where they got beat up and get back up and whoop ass
RedRedMCmusic fr tho
real truther are you otaku??!!
it's so rigid. .like a robot moving in two direction. .it has been practiced for years and no changes of movements looms ahead. .
Kata is very nice old is gold superb
эх...вспоминается детство, когда получал пояса за хореографию думая что занимаюсь единоборствами)
Что дают для спортсмена эти ката?
Их практическая цель какая?
These blokes would carv it up on the dance floor
#Techno life#
gotta love the comment section
The 2nd Man 10th Dan is like the Demon of Karate.
Simply.....elegant!

a strange combination of philosophy, biophysics, sport, and beauty.
That's a great summary 👍
Oochin XOPOWO! Svaceebo for posting!
I may be all big and buff now but when I get old if I look like Seiko I'll be happy!
warriorfire8103 theres a difference in muscles you develop as a martial arts practitioner ex. jackie chan and seiko. and gym rats like arnold...

Maravilha é pouco, meu amigo
Never seen those kata before amazing
i very very like karate master kata
I just came to read the funny comments...
well played. Amazing Kata.
The Chinese families that were invited to settle in the Island did brought them many styles . White Crane was mainly adopted and revise by the founders of Ichin Ryu.
When one gets to these stages of dan, the difficulties lies in both movement and breathing.

gracias por compartir estos vídeos domoarigato
Much Respect...
New mortal combat game looking dope
so after reaching 10th dan you can be topless while doing kata?
+Yohanes Albert Marshal i think it is in uechi ryu form
for you after 9th
That's so their breathing can be observed. Just for the breathing katas.
it very good ,I like master
You guys don't understand something people do karate not for really killing or injuring people in championships but to learn self defence and be healthy karate means one attack and one man stays on the floor MMA might be good but u cant say that kata is more show off than a man bleeding in MMA
That old man (1:17) is dangerous. He can skin you before you can say "supper is ready"
the 80yrs old is legit....
Uechiryu karate -sensei john spencer
В реальной драке с Дациком , после его колхозной плеухи их руки и ноги в воздухе делали бы не менее виртуозные движения.
Анатолий Васильевич я тоже ничего не понял 😋
Master Ken has the best katas.
The older guys movements look closer to that of Chinese martial arts.
If you mean Seiko Toyama, Uechi-Ryu is largely based on Pangai-Noon; a Chinese style.
Mən özüm Çin və yapon döyüş sənətinə hədsiz marağım var afərim onlara böyük hörmətim var ağaşirin qasımov
you guys should see the seven year old karate master
- is it possible to learn this power?
- not from a jedi
That was great..inspiring
Once demonstrating kata at delivery to the belt in karate Kyokushin, I was flunked, saying that my kata is too aggressive. Since then, I have no respect for corrupt school karate, which many in Russia, especially Kyokushin karate!
Excellent - Great Kata.
aku juga pernah ikut latihan karate,,,like
Damn overpowered old guys in manga.
If anyone could help, hope someone sees this. There is a martial art practitioner that trains his arms by maintaining a position with them that appears like he is holding a barrel. His hair is long and I think he was Japanese. Thank you for anyone that might take the time to research!
Aah~ you can see him in Uechi Ryu sanchin video sir
Does he really make that gi snap on a downblock or a elbow drawback or is that just sound effects? If so that's amazing!
I've always found the Kata disappointing because the observer is expected to imagine an opponent. I'd like to see some demonstrated with one or more other people so you can see how the movement applies.
