Kanku sho in shotokan
The problem is that these sport kata have completely incorrect timing for a karate kenpo formal exercise. There are too many pauses for the camera. The judges shouldn't require pauses. They should seek performances to be simply demonstrated without alterations. Movements should be one after the next. Though I appreciate that everyone has their own opinions, karate should not be modified for sport. It isn't warranted for demonstrations, anyway. It doesn't make sense to change the originals for such a purpose. They look fine as they are, or in this case, were.
This is not Karate Kenpo, however - 'Karate Kenpo' is an American invention and was not a term frequently used in Okinawa, where they called their martial art Tode, and later Karate (Chinese Hand). The pauses are also there in traditional kata, too - this helps to break up the Bunkai (applications) of the kata and allow moments to reflect before continuing. A Kata should not be 2 minutes of waving your hands around but a series of techniques you are constantly having to consider, evaluate, and mentally apply so your understanding of the Bunkai can flourish
David Brierley Karate kenpo is what Masters Gichin Funakoshi, Kenwa Mabuni, and Choki Motobu, for example, called their early books, either purely or as part of the name, varyingy. It is the translation of the Chinese characters that those masters used, so it is not American. I know the lineage you're referring to, but this is not what I'm referring to. "Tode" is actually "todi", because the former is a combination of Okinawan and Japanese, while the latter is completely Okinawan. Todi and karati (karate being Japanese) carry the same meaning of "Chinese-hands". "Tii" and "Bushi-nu-tii" are apparently the most common old terms, but there are many, without having standardised titling until the so-called 20th Century. Long pauses do not exist in traditional kata. They are continuous, with formalised timing that of course differs from actual fighting. Though movements are sharp, they are powerful and meaningful, too, rather than just focusing on speed in an empty way as seen in so many competition performances. There are no "moments to reflect" because that does not apply to real martial arts for actual situations. There is no thought; no consideration. I presume you aren't talking about evaluating bunkai "during" a kata, because that would suggest a person would be thinking about the techniques, while they should actually be visualising the meanings of each movement and overall technique as they advance through the entire form continuously, already knowing the applications, and therefore not considering what they might be whilst actually demonstrating. For every formalised technique, the practitioner should reach a level whereby they can easily see themselves actually fighting during individual performances, without struggling to recall the meaning of each movement. Though, I think what you meant was that you study the applications constantly, and then visualise them during kata, to make it meaningful and to aid progression.
I apologise, I thought that you were referring to the American Martial art of Karate Kenpo (I forget the founder). I think picking on specific issues with the Romanji is essentially quite petty, as transliteralisation of a language that shares no history with the one you're translating into is hardly an exact science - most people know the term as Tode. While you are correct that many masters referred to their martial art as "Karate Kenpo" it very quickly died out when Funakoshi removed chinese elements from Karate in the increasingly nationalist culture of 1930s Japan. My point was that, all direct lineages of Karate teach Kata this way - the current heads of my own organisation (Shito-Ryu, specifically Shito-Kai, including Mabuni's son and Mabuni's student Mr. Iwata) teach Kata this way. Karate has evolved from its Okinawan roots. For better or for worse is not for me to argue - but what you are viewing is not Karate Kenpo, just as Karate Kenpo is not Fuijian White Crane, and just as White Crane is not 18th century Chinese martial techniques. The pauses are not just in sport karate but how I am taught Kata, to aid in appreciation of the Bunkai and reflection on the techniques. Unfortunately (or fortunately) things will naturally change over time
Right. That's okay. It isn't Romanji, it's the Kanji - the Chinese characters, not those for foreign words (though they are Katakana) or the Romanisation of Japanese or Chinese. The masters I mentioned, as examples, used Chinese characters that are Romanised as "karate kenpo" or "kenpo karate", when pronounced in Japanese. Kenpo is the Japanese for the Mandarin Chinese "quanfa". Chinese martial arts use the suffix "quan", which means "fist", as does the Japanese "ken" when using the same ideogram. A quan (pronounced "chuan") is the same as the word "kata" (the word used in Japanese and Okinawan). Each quan is a kata, because each kata is a system in itself.
That doesn't support a reason for calling it a name that combines languages incorrectly and with no real benefit. It is more correct to say "todi", if you want to use that term to name karate/karati. But I was simply pointing out something minor. I really don't mind what you call it, because it makes no real difference to anything. Unless you're writing about it, or teaching it.
It did die out quickly, but that certainly does not dictate what it should always be called by every individual in the future, which is now the present. Why conform for no good reason? The changes made many years ago served their purposes at the time. They were good ideas, then. But that does not mean they must persist for the rest of time.
Yes, they mostly do. Does that make it right? From what I've seen, I would say no. The only exception is when individuals choose to practise properly, regardless. Then it's more about the individual's style rather than the common way of performing. It can have meaning, but it just doesn't relate to actual situations if it pauses for too long. Slow movements are one thing, but long pauses are completely wrong. It is Japanization, not evolution, because Okinawan masters still practise in the old way, with some variations, but with plenty following the unaltered route.
Well, you have an opinion - I don't see why you can't argue your point, if you have one. Why not? I saw that I didn't like the modern version, so I stopped practising it. Everyone's entitled to follow their own opinions about things.
No, it isn't karate kenpo. I merely used that term in that instance, rather than just calling it karate. It is modern Japanese karate, as opposed to traditional Japanese karate. They changed because people made the changes due to the time, and events and their effects. Now, the Okinawans, for example, can recover their culture entirely from when it was a kingdom, including attempts to perpetuate their own language, after having been forced to conform to Japanese ways in the late-1800s. Things changed, but that does not mean they have to remain different from what they once were. Of course, that's my opinion, and if you maintain a different opinion, then that's fine.
Boii not tryna be rude but if u do sports karate without a timing it will look like a mess, rushing too much, they do this so they can look better and not too slow or not too fast
Oh My Golly!!!!
