I have been studying Goju-Ryu for years in Italy. I can tell you that you have a good technique, precision, passion, you are a great master.

Thank you. I will be teaching a seminar in Madrid, Spain, June 9-11.

I love this. Some of these takedowns look like Baguazhang.

[@GKCgoju]

Yes, similarities in all martial arts.

GojuRyu is great. Too bad there isnt a group or sensei in my area. At least there are many of other styles.

Для того чтобы заниматься каратэ не обязательно облачаться в восточную пижаму и ходить босиком.

[@GKCgoju]

True. We can practice anywhere, anytime, and in normal clothes and shoes.
