I have so much appreciation for the open minds of the new Martial Artists. It is a breathe of fresh air to see and come to realize the future will be that much greater for the new genereation through these great Master and Grand Masters. I have studied a few areas of martial arts and have been condemned by each one except those who were open minded. Some are still closed minded to believe that their style is the most supreme. It is slowly being realized that there is not just one method. Years ago I was told if I left Shotokan Karate and went to another style (Tae Kwon Do) not to return. Once in Tae Kwon Do I was also warned of the same thing. I did go but years later my instructors realized that no style has the corner on the arts market. I only wish that life was longer so I could experience many more styles and put more time into them. Thank you so much for sharing.
It's good to see people from different backgrounds leaving their ego at the door and training and learning from each other. Really well done video! And it's always great to see the guys from Kuro Obi!
Well said. It was not discussed when I started and kept hush hush. But thankfully it's right that all martial artists are recognised for whatever part they have played in promoting these incredible arts.
It really makes me wonder about how volatile life was back then in order for individuals to have a need for martial arts. On top of that, how much more effective those people were back then when their lives were on the line. Self defense as a whole is both amazing and horrifying to me. I have much respect for the art.
When you were young, you were strong, and your techniques were strong, powerful, used to dominate others so that you can become even MORE powerful. When you get older, you realize that those things were useless and true power can be found in simpler and subtler movements, and you use those movements to defend what you've always had or to reclaim the things that were lost.
El Sensei Naka está haciendo una investigación sobre los orígenes del karate. El karate Japonés (shotokan, kyokushin, shito ryu etc) es descendiente de los estilos de Okinawa (shuri, naha, tomari) que a su vez fueron influenciados por estilos chinos. Quizá esta investigación aporte lo suficiente para esclarecer toda la genealogía del arte.
At 22.10, you get a glimpse of why he trains so hard to try to reach the highest level of the martial art, why he goes to Okinawa to try to discover the roots of karate, all in his own words.
Thomas, Karate originated in India and later in China, approximately 12 centuries ago. Its origins refer to the Buddhist monk Bodhi Dharma, since it was he who developed the martial system known as Shorinji Kempo (or Kung Fu Shaolin). I do not know specifically the name of the style of Kung Fu. Your reference is most welcome. Oss
only the shaolin kung is get influnece by the india master Bodhi Dharma,, but is mixed with the local chinese kung fu skill also , but kung fu is so many styles and clans in China . the okinawa (Ryokiu island , its a part of Great china before WW2 )style is based on chinese white crane kung fu , it is so differeant from the shoalin North style.... make some research , u will understand more .....
Okinawa could never be part of China, as Okinawa is the Japanese name for the former Ryukyu kingdom, itself NEVER A PART OF CHINA. Ryukyu was a tributary to China, never a Chinese province or state. Ryukyu was at the same time tributary to Satsuma Please, stick with facts and not fiction.
@DL_GB I m not sure about what u said ...I think that the white crane is local Martial art in yong chun the grand master and founder is a woman .. who's name is 方七娘
I think everything are bullshido to you. I bet that you are only a couch potato than a martial art practitioner. I wanna see what will you say if you face to face with those people.

In those times it was life or death, then it had to work or it did not stay alive.

I never did martial arts when I was young, now I'm old so... I'm trying to learn but it's tough LOL

Oss I love karate❤️🥋
Everything is possible in the safety of the dojo, with everything anticipated and hostility absent. .
Once you get the opponent off balance its easier to deal with his aggression.
Sweat and blood arouse my fighting appetite. Oss.

Thank you
Question to those that know: Does Meibuukan do a lot of conditioning or is that pain all the result of proper application?

I love at 3.59 they try to look like they are important and bad asses for the picture..martial artists are so insecure.lol
Why do you have a problem with them? They're just sitting for the picture.
and their ego and stupidity stand next to them...look at us we are so important
@@mortgagefinancing5558 what are you even talking about. Where does it show them being that way?
it all looks good in demonstrations only, in a real fight (or sparring session at full speed and power) all the techniques and methods look like crap
No actually they don't
@@kbanghart yes actually they do

Karate doesn't work in street😂😁😃
Nonsence. All katas are nonsence. Katas don't work in street fighting. Karate is only sport. Fighting is Thai boxing
Seeking the origins of karate/martial arts goes back centuries to Jerusalem long before the so called Asian man,and you can take that to the bank.
Thank for your comments Jacob. Oss
I have my doubts
looks like bullshido to me ..
