This is a huge principal of Kungfu styles especially Bajiquan. From total relaxation to total contraction then back to relaxed. This is so good to see there are different ways to create power. Also the super stiff movements at times of hard styles like Karate can be extremely taxing later on in life. I’ve seen high level Japanese stylists still do there there hard body training but supplement it with a softer style like Tai Chi 🤜🤛

Very good to watch Rick has fantastic explosive speed with emphasis on power as well. Body mechanics hip movement breathing resetting for the next strike. I think this type of skill set is very important to develop. Always been a fan of Shotakan Karate because of its simplicity. Rick explains very well and demonstrates great body mechanics and movement. Ps done stress about your calves. This video encourages people to re work their Kata make it better.
Superb Martial artist. His relaxed, flowing style reminds me more of GoJu RYU rather than Shotokan. It's a reminder that all styles of Karate have very similar origins. His relaxed posture and techniques remind me strongly of Sensei Hiagonna although they are very different physically.
Torque is key! And hide it! Great! 👍 Been studying with Sensei Tani and then Sensei Kimura. Then both have past away! But got the technique of torque power speed! Yes like a whip! Relax then strike!
Karate is just effectively synching your mind and body with balance and power, so the smaller has a better chance over the larger, or just knowing where to ,find weakness.
How is sensei still a 5th dan? Why is he not recognised at the higher levels? Is he not part of the mainstream Shotokan community, so it out on a limb?
I did shooting for a while in the UK in my late teens and I liked it but it was a bit rigid less fluid. I moved to Australia and shotokan was hard to find it was all the made-up schools and some Goju ryu.

Thank you fellow traveler
I wish I knew about this. I would of been there. Awesome classes.
As someone with an aikido background who has been training in karate currently, I am so grateful for your videos. Thank you.
Interesting mix of marshal arts :)
Arigatogozaimashita Sensei. Every time I watch you I am in complete awe
I practice Muay Thai and love watching these videos so much to learn from him.
This guy is a magician, pure and simple. Inspirational.
Beautiful example of Karate. Bless you sir.
This is how karate should be done. Thank you, Sensei.
Sensei Hotton's karate is poetry in motion.
Wow, what a great mastering of the body!! A wonderful KARATEX style! Sensationell.. ❤
Rick Hotton is a truly incredible Martial Artist & teacher.
Incredible demonstration.
Really cool instructor.
Love this - Thank you for continuing to share your knowledge Sensei Hotton 🙏🏾
I use the bow and arrow analogy often in teaching, it’s the way your muscles work, relaxation, stretch, and contraction- makes for a fast arrow
Excellent - OSU!!! Respect 🙏
Best karate teacher ever
Excellent
Just this video alone reveals so many secrets osss

Fine instruction
A lots of great friends in this video. It must have been a great clinic with Sensei Hotton. Wish I could have been their with my Quebec Karate family.
Masterful Instruction!!!
He has a lot of tai chi in his movements. All this relaxation and connecting is from traditional tai chi. 3:34 is classic tai chi. Karate is evolving.
As Sensei Hotton would say: 'Everything is everything.'

He's taking cues from Asai Sensei's approach that incorporates the White Crane style.
This is behind Karate itself. Those are universal priciples of unified body mind movement that we can see in many high level martilal artsists.

Amazing!!🙏🏽🌞
Sensei Hotton only weighs 135 he says. His kicks have so much Speed and Power..

He definitely knows his distance and and combos
Hips are everything!
Incredibly high level instruction.
Simple explanation and effective oss
Like nunchaku strikes
The problem he describes is exactly what karate and Kung Fu suffer from at times for that exact reason.

Rick is súper explosive

The clearest example of a ‘Kyoshi’ 🔥
Kimura Shukokai fwiw: Oss!
How is sensei still a 5th dan? Why is he not recognised at the higher levels?
Is he not part of the mainstream Shotokan community, so it out on a limb?
As far as I know, he doesn't want a rank above 5th dan because Gichin Funakoshi said 5th dan is enough.
I did shooting for a while in the UK in my late teens and I liked it but it was a bit rigid less fluid. I moved to Australia and shotokan was hard to find it was all the made-up schools and some Goju ryu.
❤ OSU
haha! the same principles Bruce lee was trying to convey in the mid-late 60s.....Interesting.
You should fight in MMA.
Go read about martial arts and Budo
at 65 I'm a bit too old, but I should join AARP and get some cool discounts!
