All that in the video don't work! But for fitness any physical activity is good. I learned Shotokan 3 years. Then I visited a Goju Ryu school and I got, SHotokan is useless. I learned Goju Ryu 3 years. Then I visited MMA and I got, my skill are useless. Though, I didn't waste my time in any way. One needs to have some pure style practice before to join MAA, and both Shotokan and Goju Rye were good for that.
@@kallasbill Useless against trained mma fighter maybe but not against untrained hoodlum. One kick can knock some teeth right out of someone’s mouth. For most people that’s good enough to defend themselves.
@@k14michael Don't kick high kicks, if you never tried that outside a gym (Dojo). The ground maybe wet and your shoes may be slippery. I would suggest to try some friendly sparring (kumite) outside a gym, having daily clothes and shoes on instead of a karate ki. Also, not the attacker will be charged, but you, if you kicked his teeth off or if you made him any other serious injuries. But you know it as well. It is just such an expression not a literal plan, right? And yes, it is so rare if some good MMA fighter attacks anybody in streets. If only being drunk.
@@kallasbill Whenever it comes to arguing about martial arts, some stupid idiot will call the MMA-fighters. You know, this is a ring with rules, right? With gloves, right? What do you think, which rules will a karate-fighter accept in a street fight? Karate is to destroy bones and muscles, turning the opponent into a cripple if necessary. Do you think, they developed self-defense for nothing? In times where 1 knife per village was allowed? I feel sorry for you, that you learned nothing in your karate-dojo.
thats alot more kicking techniques then i expected, can clearly see the influence shotokan had on taekwondo from this, military taekwondo i mean not olympic style
Watching this old film footage is great. The martial arts has changed alot over the years. Back then it was about honour and respect. It was a study through the education of the martial arts. The fighting arts are always there - that is obvious. However, to focus on the accomplishments and the learning process should be the goal. Perfection is realizing that there is no perfection. If you focus on perfecting your skills and self growth , its hard to think about the fighting aspect. Utilizing the martial arts to help people to grow or teaching values to people is by far a greater asset. Thanks for this video it brings us back.
Agreed, learning a martial art is learning about life. Today it's more about fighting than learning how to live. I would like to go back in time and learn from one of these masters 👍
Thank you for there names. Karate has yet to appropriately deal with sidearms (I practice Goju, diligently, studying other styles, Shotokan being one of them) because, especially with the advent of striker fire weapons, and trigger’s that actuate with under a .5kg of pressure. I personally wouldn’t chance a kick to disarm a pistol. A properly trained marksmen will probably land a shot center mass at the distances shown. And these guys are Absolute legends. I’d want to be within arms reach to at least control the muzzle.
About 3:25 where they're barely creeping along the ground with tiny foot movements of the toe and heel without taking a step... that's some subtle, but very cool footwork!
People who say that this wouldn't work in a real fight know less of martial arts than they know of fornicating. Traditional Karate is brutal and effective, Karate has been water down to accommodate the western people, and in Japan many schools are also turning into pure dodo. Those schools that still teach the traditional style are brutal and effective, in a real fight you have control and can hit more hard, precise, faster and take alot more punishment than the streetfigther. Shotokan is RAW POWER, its hits are not meant to hurt u but to destroy you.
Maan Salha i would imagine so, funakoshi learned some judo from kano jigoro and it was common for karate students to learn judo along with karate and some would incorporate the judo techniques even further into the karate system they teach. these days alot of karate dojo's do teach it, in the taekwondo federation i am in we get taught the full range of combat except for weapons and most striking arts do teach some ground defense, more on how to get out of it to get back on your feet as that is where the strength of striking arts are on the feet
bóxer may can win in the ring with boxing rules but in the streets with a good traditional karateka(shorin ryu shidokan , shotokan etc) they could be kill in a sigle movement
As a karateka i agree with you completely, it would turn you into a bullet magnet so if ever you'll get pointed by a gun it's not the best time to resist.
it seems like kicking a gun out of someone's hand might work if he's distracted - even then it'd only be worth the risk if they're after more than just your money. in all likelihood you're only ever at gunpoint if you're being robbed, and the robber will probably pay attention, so yeah, nobody kicks faster than a finger on a trigger.
A real attack is a melee, a mash up, untidy, can be unexpected and a bit of a mess. I know several karate clubs/instructors in which the core training is self defence/self protection with a realistic & practical viewpoint in which the attacker or attackers are non-karate based. These clubs/instructors explore & adapt bunkai to drill for a multitude of scenarios. Also, pad/bag work is essential. Getting back to the roots prior to the excellent technical karate shown in this video.
John, I'm a decent kickboxer with no fights, but I was trained by a UFC fighter and his friends (at his gym), I'd get fucked up by one of the BJJ people if it was a real fight. I simply think they would dodge whatever kick I throw and take me down. I've rolled with them, I'd stand no chance.
Putting aside the "realism" of the techniques demonstrated - the techniques themselves are beautifully performed by karate ka with great skill and athleticism
Those snap kick are really good. I am impressed with the areas they strike and side stepping the jab to strike with a round house ball of your foot strike!! You would black out from that. Really cool, all of it.
Great technique. However, we have to be honest. From a self defence stand point you will never come under attack from someone using Shotokan. Especially with an Oi Zuki. I practiced Shotokan from 74-14 and in 20 years of tournaments and Kumite in dojo's I trained at around the world nobody ever attacked with Oi Zuki. But still great to watch such excellence of technique.
because having a high Dan rank does not mean deadly fighter but it can mean huge delusions as they start to believe those leg tech kicks may work against 2 attackers
We need to put everything in it's context. To my knowledge, Oi Tsuki was a long range sword/spear/knife thrust that was adapted and evolved into the empty hand punch that modern karate uses today. So the original intent of the attack is still relevant today. Thus saying you will never be attacked with an Oi tsuki today is like saying, I will probably never encounter anyone stabbing me in the gut with a knife these days. As for it being used in Kumite, if you are familiar with Naka Tatsuya sensei, you would know that the Oi Tsuki is one of his favorite techniques for which he is known for. And that he uses it exactly as it was intended, as a long range spear thrust against an opponent who is caught flatfooted.
Замечательный Кихон. Благодарю за прекрасный материал и ещё одну замечательную страницу из истории. Всем добра процветания совершенствования духа и тепла. Сил и стремления к вершине мастерства.
As a young man I studied Nakayama's "Dynamic Karate" until I knew every punch, kick, block and move by heart. To see him as a young man so skillful is a blessing!
Green belt test, 1974, Japanese cultural center in Los Angeles, Nishyama was the main evaluator, didn't understand half of what he said, but we respected the heck out of him.
That maybe true actually. However the benefit of karate is that you spend so much time practicing that you seldom actually get to go anywhere that's likely to get you into a fight. ;-)
I've had the book for half a century. Now I have the video. Thank you very much! :) That's me in the attached photo doing a flying kick when I was back from Korea and out of the U.S. Air Force and university at the high school where I taught science in Houston, Texas. My black belt is in Jedokwan(sp?) style of Taekwon Do (no longer practiced to my knowledge) from Master Kim Hyok Nae in South Korea. That style is from Japanese Shotokan during the Japanese occupation in which the Japanese kill almost all the Korean masters of Taekwon(sp) foot fighting to impose the Japanese style. Master Kim was very small (too small for Judo when he was young so had to take Taekwon Do), but I think he could have beaten anybody! That is like Shotokan Karate but we GI's were allowed to be individuals instead of "robotic" thus forming what might be called an American style of Taekwon Do or Karate. We practiced during the entire classes not standing around wasting time or with formal practices and eventually stopped practicing the forms ... just fighting or sparing a lot! We learned to "kick ass" in a manor of speaking. But I later added some Hapkido joint locks/throws and some Chinese Chin Na (Quin Na) joint locks with the Korean Hapkido locks etc. My time in S. Korea was before S. Korea uniformed their style of Taekwon Do into their national sport making everybody the same like from a factory, unfortunately. And my master, a 7th Degree Master at the time, had many Koreans to visit our gym all with very, very different styles of sparing. I imitated their incredible speed to become almost indomitable when young and practiced four (4) times everyday ... one time between two classes and during midnight shift on guard duty making four times per day, as a cop doing law enforcement and security. One of his assistants was Mr. Cho, a 5th Degree at the time. Mr. Cho was a former three time all Korean champion and former presidential bodyguard. Master Kim got Mr. Cho to show me some special moves as I was Captain of our team or class. Mr. Kim told me "You have'ah great! potential (with his accident).
Ty for posting this excerpt. It's quality. I often wondered if there had been a strict regimen inspired by Samurai and other military orders around Asia and how much tradition there was... But this gives a vision of Asian MMA, which got exported internationally as different "schools". How fantastic it is to imagine and how young it makes martial arts feel.

Here's some advice for you "experts" here. Don't judge. Watch it and learn. Be grateful that there is a media you can watch it on. Practice each technique ten thousand times.
MMA clowns today that watch this and think this stuff doesn't work simply don't understand that they trained like this BECAUSE it is so effective... The pauses and structure disappear in an actual fight. Are you really going to look at these full speed kicks and punches purposefully whiffing millimeters from their target, and think you're getting anywhere close enough or fast enough to catch them? Do you understand the level of control and precision that this takes? All right buddy. Cool story bro. I totally believe you.
These styles aren’t for playing around. The amount of strength it takes to not only execute but PULL AND STOP those kicks and punches is Enormous. Let alone the precision.
This is basically the same style that I studied first. It was called kamashinru . Japanese style karate brought to the USA by Albert Church. After the school broke up I studied TKD. TKD is OK but I like and miss the old Japanese karate.
I remember learning Shotokan in school. I grew up watching Bruce Lee films, I had my first fight in the street against the school psycho around 14 years old. The first thing I discovered was people don't keep a set distance apart when fighting. Whilst getting completely overwhelmed by blows I also found out that the BS straight punches were crap against someone in your grill throwing hooks and uppercuts, screaming, spitting and trying to bite you. I had every childhood ideal of martial arts superiority stripped away in under 5 minutes. It makes me wonder if any of these 'masters' did any real fighting at all or just the peasantry idolising the elderly 'masters' who just larped their way through their shogun society.
Well. I remember, as a kid, in History class learning about the Imperial Japanese Army and how they ran across the entire Asian world during World War II. That involved quite a lot of fighting, hand-to-hand. So, you were a kid, you didn’t take it seriously and thought the class was some kind of Magic. Fighting is not magic, as you learned. It is fighting. So if you just tried to robotically attack somebody with “Katas” and very telegrammed strikes, as you were improperly trained, you will be beaten very badly. Your McDojo experience is very common, but don’t discount this stuff.
Famous practitioners: Jean Claude Van Damme, Wesley Snipes, Michael Jai White, Lyoto Machida, Lorraine Bracco, Steve Blackman, Tom Muzila, Chuck Norris, and etc.
i remember way back when i was a kid i came across a book on katate and thought i'd learn a few moves. it was a bad book by an american who apparently only learned 3 moves and the rest was all basically isometic stuff. so i used only a few excercises and learned the few worthwhile moves. one move was what to do when someone attacks you using that knife over head while charging you. i thought that looks stupid no one fights like that except in bad movies but what-the-hell. one day in class another kid thought he'd start a fight with me and attacked me to hit me using that same overhead charge. i grabbed him without thinking by the rest, spun and used his weight to toss him over me onto the ground. however since it was a classroom he smashed hard onto a desk instead which was even better. he was so surprised he quit right there and had a new respect for me. no one else ever picked a fight with me again that whole year.
The gun defense is complete insanity. You have no way of knowing if your kick will hit before he pulls the trigger or if you will kick hard enough to knock it out of his hands. The fact that you are being held at gunpoint rather than just being shot at range itself implies that the person with the gun can be reasoned with. Just give him your money, never attempt to crescent kick a sidearm out of someone hands lol.
As a teenager in the 70's Shotokan changed my life and is still a major influence now. I miss the old school discipline and style.
Shotokan has given me so much in life. I started in high school and I'll still be practicing as an old man.
All that in the video don't work! But for fitness any physical activity is good. I learned Shotokan 3 years. Then I visited a Goju Ryu school and I got, SHotokan is useless. I learned Goju Ryu 3 years. Then I visited MMA and I got, my skill are useless. Though, I didn't waste my time in any way.

yup, the founder learned shotokan directly from funakoshi. Then returned to korea, mixed it with taekkyeon
michael mckenna the chief of tkd has 2nd dan in karate shotokan
Shotokan adopted kicks into its system from French Savate
...and chausson had influenced Shotokan
Watching Nishiyama in his prime always puts a smile on my face. His skill was unreal.

I can recognise Shotokan legends: Nakayama, Nishiyama, Kanazawa, Enoeda, all of them sadly departed, with Kanazawa Sensei being the latest loss.
Gichin funakoshi is the best shotokan legend know to man lol
My Sensei's Sensei' Sensei got his training from Nishiyama. Rajeev Sinha. He once trained our seniors.

The kicks were perfectly balanced and accurate Wow so much to learn from seeing them...wish I can get it one day
What a blessing to see Nishiyama Sensei in these videos after all these years! Thank you!
A couple of those gun defenses were impractical. Other than that the flexibility of the man was incredible.
As a karateka i agree with you completely, it would turn you into a bullet magnet so if ever you'll get pointed by a gun it's not the best time to resist.

The only gun defense is any that work at that time. A hail/Mary is better than accepting defeat
And I bet it wasn't even loaded.
Trained with Master M. Nakayama in 1972; a promotional, 2-day workshop at Florida State University. What a SUPERB, experience!!
I begsn in 1975.

More than one karate "black belt" has found that out the hard way after getting into a fight with a wrestler or judoka or other competition grappler.

What I admire, is the mind set. It’s not the techniques, it’s the character building.
One of the demonstrators looks like Sensei Nishiyama when he was young in Japan ... amazing!
Super cool! What I find most amazing his how Shotokan masters can hit so hard. You take a shot from these guys & it rocks you to your core!
I love how so many of the scenarios are of a peaceful karateka minding his own business, only to be surprise-attacked!!
Some crisp kicks. These gents are impressive.
Putting aside the "realism" of the techniques demonstrated - the techniques themselves are beautifully performed by karate ka with great skill and athleticism
Most precious. And of course, a stark reminder of how petty are the disputes about origin or superiority of one art in favor of others.
Those snap kick are really good. I am impressed with the areas they strike and side stepping the jab to strike with a round house ball of your foot strike!! You would black out from that. Really cool, all of it.
Very cool footage! Awesome technique... A real cool find! thanks..
This was great historical stuff. Thank you!
Its so intresting,to see unsu-bunkai,performed by SHIHAN Nakayama...or SHIHAN Nishiyama in action.rare pictures.thank you.
Beautiful technique on those kicks
The content of the video is a video made after the birth of Taekwondo.
And the kick shown in the video is the Sabate kick.
A lot of these are actually really important to know if you wana walk safely in forests, I'm always being ambushed by forest karate guys
Karate in it'd intended use is absolutely effective and very deadly. It was developed over centuries of combat techniques
Muy buen video gracias 👍
I remember these guys from the 60’s. Nakayama is the little third guy. He wrote the classic, Dynamic Karate.
Great technique. However, we have to be honest. From a self defence stand point you will never come under attack from someone using Shotokan. Especially with an Oi Zuki.

剛柔流やってた身としては雲手の飛ぶところとか違和感あったけど、松濤館流って昔からダイナミックだったんですねぇ。
Отличное видео, спасибо👍👍👍
This is basically the same style that I studied first. It was called kamashinru . Japanese style karate brought to the USA by Albert Church. After the school broke up I studied TKD. TKD is OK but I like and miss the old Japanese karate.
Jeff Gibson this is shotokan
Omg!!! We see pieces of katas right there! Strangle -> Jion, two guys pick your arms -> Heian Yondan etc
Sadly we lost a lot of Masters in WW2 but at least Oyama-Sensei survive in WW2 and create the beautiful Karate Kyokushin.
Спасибо,
Поклон вам🙏🏻
WOW!
RUclips recommended something interesting!
*/NINE Years after it was put up*

1:12 Heian Yodan Bunkai
o karatê e Kung Fu e o taykendo são as verdadeiras artes marciais.💪💪💪
sehr natürliche Bewegungen, ich sitze eigentlich immer so auf dem Stuhl
Old footage of Ryu and Ken sparring for Gouken
I guess there were a ton of karateka bandits in those days.
The best most realistick karate show
I didn't expect that block into a counted move. Ayyo
1:50 he didn’t even check if the person behind him was attacker. He just knew...
I like this video. Reminds .e of the old style Japanese samurai movies.
Would have been funny to hear a loud HADOUKEN! at the end 🤣👍
I feel like some of the karate blocks make more sense if someone has a weapon
Like Age Uke (rising Block
That's the real shotokan before becomes a usseless sport.
This is some beautiful fuckin footage
The 4th karateka in this movie is Master Okazaki
+Paul Sod He is the man! Oss, ISKF!
I remember learning Shotokan in school. I grew up watching Bruce Lee films, I had my first fight in the street against the school psycho around 14 years old.
The first thing I discovered was people don't keep a set distance apart when fighting. Whilst getting completely overwhelmed by blows I also found out that the BS straight punches were crap against someone in your grill throwing hooks and uppercuts, screaming, spitting and trying to bite you.
I had every childhood ideal of martial arts superiority stripped away in under 5 minutes. It makes me wonder if any of these 'masters' did any real fighting at all or just the peasantry idolising the elderly 'masters' who just larped their way through their shogun society.
Well. I remember, as a kid, in History class learning about the Imperial Japanese Army and how they ran across the entire Asian world during World War II. That involved quite a lot of fighting, hand-to-hand. So, you were a kid, you didn’t take it seriously and thought the class was some kind of Magic. Fighting is not magic, as you learned. It is fighting. So if you just tried to robotically attack somebody with “Katas” and very telegrammed strikes, as you were improperly trained, you will be beaten very badly.
Your McDojo experience is very common, but don’t discount this stuff.
@@ch0wned not only Mc dojos some "traditional" dojos tend to just to KATAS and kihon while at most once a month point kumite.....
Super, toll, vielen Dank🤩
I love how realistic the situation are🤣
Their Kimeh is so legendary lol
Main lesson:
If someone is walking towards you on the street wearing a gi, get ready to fight.
Famous practitioners: Jean Claude Van Damme, Wesley Snipes, Michael Jai White, Lyoto Machida, Lorraine Bracco, Steve Blackman, Tom Muzila, Chuck Norris, and etc.
come to liverpool and see the best
@@davewilliams1513 Good luck and have a great day Sir😊
i remember way back when i was a kid i came across a book on katate and thought i'd learn a few moves. it was a bad book by an american who apparently only learned 3 moves and the rest was all basically isometic stuff. so i used only a few excercises and learned the few worthwhile moves. one move was what to do when someone attacks you using that knife over head while charging you. i thought that looks stupid no one fights like that except in bad movies but what-the-hell. one day in class another kid thought he'd start a fight with me and attacked me to hit me using that same overhead charge. i grabbed him without thinking by the rest, spun and used his weight to toss him over me onto the ground. however since it was a classroom he smashed hard onto a desk instead which was even better. he was so surprised he quit right there and had a new respect for me. no one else ever picked a fight with me again that whole year.
Very impressive.
Very cool!
The gun defense is complete insanity. You have no way of knowing if your kick will hit before he pulls the trigger or if you will kick hard enough to knock it out of his hands. The fact that you are being held at gunpoint rather than just being shot at range itself implies that the person with the gun can be reasoned with. Just give him your money, never attempt to crescent kick a sidearm out of someone hands lol.
If he wants to take you or your child try it but if he wants money give it to him and when he's going away get him and your money back
@@Nolan-JohnstonYT or just call the police
If ur life depends on it maybe u would
Esas técnica eran y son muy precisa hoy en día los grandes maestros de 6 a 9 dan no la enseñan solo cuando llegas a su nivel
Your opponent is unlikely to throw just one strike at you and then stop!
