watched this video 4 times Before my first class. My karate sensai told me. Have you been trained Before ? good job he said. Thanks SENSAI
Sensei - Thanks for this has really got me back into my Karate, i studied for 10 years and got my brown belt; then i stopped have always regretted it and this has inspired me to start my lessons again and continue learning.
As much time as you can. If you are busy and only have 20 minutes, it's still better than nothing. Do 5 minutes of stretching and 15 minutes of kihon, kata, or kumite. Rotate what you practice each day and then review at the end of the week if you have a day off from work.
Do you need some ideas on how to practice karate at home? Join in with this video.
Hi, I looked for some videos about Karate on google and I bumped into yours. I would like to share my happyness to see it. Its a good idea :-) congratulation for this action.
Totally agree, +100000; too bad I live so far from your dojo (Europe).
Thank you very much.
you are welcome.
And if you want discuss about this practice, then don't hesitate to contact me.
Good Morning. I am A JKA Brown Belt holder. I like training at home. Am satisfied with my achievements so far for I believe Belts are for the Dojo and true karate lies in the mind of the practitioner. Any advice for home training please.
Thanks for this informative video,I had a question,its gonna be a little big.I like shotokan,fascinated by it,wanna take it soon,I am currently a muaythai kickboxer,with a heavy emphasis on boxing.Now I like shotokan because it is known to be a very effective art,it builds quickness and real life self defense skills,and most importantly pin point accuracy(lyoto machida has always said that shotokan has gave him a great accuracy and defense that no other MA could),but i also hear something a lot,which is that it does not build toughness,and many shotokan karate practitioner do not fair well against full contact strikers,which is according to many due to the fact that shotokan program does not focus on hard sparring,thus does not build the mental or physical conditioning to endure punishment,or the skills to knock your adversaries out,however there are many exceptions.But other than that I beleive that it is an outstanding style.
So,what I would like to do is study shotokan seriously,but also to train it and spar in a full contact or realistic way,that way I will maintain my full contact toughness and become efficient in applying shotokan in real situations.But as far as i am concerned,I wont be able to spar shotokan full contact,or like a knockout game,no shotokan place is going to allow it,and also it is gonna be hard to find shotokan partners to spar full contact.So,according to me,the best thing to do would be to mix kickboxing and shotokan somehow,I mean doing both,while ripping out the benefits of both of them,the accuracy and quickness of shotokan and the skills of realistic MT striking game.My question is how do I go about it,do you have any special suggestion about this?Will crosstraining in both arts prove out to be effective,or are there any other more effective ways with which will I be benefitted,thnx for reading this far,anyone with a thought feel free to reply,thnx in advance.
I haven't watched the video yet, since I'm at work, but seeing your refridgerator in the corner reminds me of one of the best reasons for home training: having an ice cold craft beer just feet away from you after finishing sweating your butt off!
lol
Standing upright allows you to focus solely on the mechanics of the punch, however there is nothing wrong with doing the punch from a horse stance. I use that training method too.
I can use the kiba daci for training the punches?sorry for my lenguage i am italian
I love karate training and its philosophy,im a very busy travelling man,so i thank you from the bottom of my heart,these videos help a lot for training purpose at home for persons like me who are always on the move. thank you sensei. jamshed karai
Phil ippe I am also far but maybe one day we all can have a training session. We can all take and share as lead instructors. I workout in a bar before I open and sometimes at 4:00 am or 5:00 am. We can pick a time that is good for everyone. We can train via Skype one. I am in Puerto Rico right but have train on Japan time which is 13 hours a head of my current time zone. New York is one hour behind my current time zone. My Skype is jeffmbx.
Another add on to the toolbox, thank you, Sensei Walker, HOOAH!
Sensei - I am a 44 yr. old man who started studying shotokan with my 8 yr. son 5 yrs ago, we are testing for black belt next March. You're videos, guidance, knowledge and incredible teaching style has helped me through it and my appreciation is endless. Thank you very much.
Unfortunately the basic punches are exactly what this gentleman says you shouldn't do. Elbows are out to the sides which create flicky useless techniques.
Thank you sensei for taking the time to share your knowledge. It is greatly appreciated.
To perform superhuman feats in Martial Arts are going beyond the physical realm now we are using our spirits heart mind and body come together as one however we must also believe and have no fear of failure breaking a baseball bat is a good example with the shin there must be no doubts in our minds ECT or serious injury can happen as Lord Jesus Christ Son of God and Saviour said "Everything is possible for the one who believes" OSU
Pain is an emotion
Thanks so much for the template! You broke each move down into more steps than I'm used to, so I can really improve my technique inbetween classes. However, I was unable to see and fully understand your foot/legwork in the first half or so of the video because of the way the camera is aimed. I waned to make sure I was doing the stances correctly before integrating it together and stepping into them.
parabéns pelos vídeos sensei, esse me ajudou muito para exame de faixa.
obrigado thank you oss.
Sensei Paul - I am 68 years old and in good health. Am I too old to begin learning Karate? With dedication and practice, what are my chances of attaining a Black Belt?
Your videos are excellent! Thanks so much for helping so many "black belts in training".
Jim Richardson Hi, I know I'm not Sensei Paul, and this is three years later but, as someone with several years experience in karate, I can tell you it's never too Late! With regular training and dedication, you could obtain a black belt in 3 years! Oss!
Dean Pullen , white belt 3 months, 2nd white 3 months, blue 3 months, 2nd blue 3 months, yellow 3 months, 2nd yellow 3 months. 1 year 6 months up to now, no fails, and no injuries. green belt 3 months, 2 nd green 3 months. You then have to wait 6 months to national grading to brown, 2 and half years, await further 6 months to 2 nd brown. That's 3 years. Now you have to wait 12 months before even being recommended for Black belt, so that's 4 years, so if successful at all gradings and free of injuries, and you pass first time you are a black belt. This is Kyokushin though. Not many in my time got the coveted black that quick. So if you were exceptional kiss goodbye to 5 years hard training. Personally I disagree with the fast track to Black belt, as this should not be encouraged. Styles that award Black belt in just 3 years are not worth the grade therefore devaluation results.
Sensei do you do zoom classes please ? I need to train in Karta especially please get back to me OSU
Oss master

Sorry, but there is something wrong in your punches, I first noticed that, then after I slow it down, it became more clear: before you punch, you arm that is supposed to punch (and your fist) is dropping down then moving forward. That's WRONG! When performing punch, your arm was supposed to go STRAIGHT FORWARD from your hip diagonal forward to the chest of your opponent. It seems that, before you move your arm forward, you drop your fist, move it backwards and then forward (if you slow it down to 0.25 at 11:00 and further you will see what I was talking about). What you were doing is quite wrong, your punch must go straight forward from your hip, not "down-backwards-forward". Other than this, I like your katas.
thnak you very much sensei it's a huge honor to follow your classe ! you are simplifing Shotokan practise ! keep going please !
Your explanations are the best. All my katas i learned watching your vídeos. Go on. Don't stop 👊. Oss
Thanks sensei, I followed your instructions and I'm going to practice everyday.
Great class to correct ourselves on the basics . 🙏
I tried all this stuff. Still can't perform a Hadouken, though
Nice video, man! Thanks for taking your time to make it. I prefere to stand still when practising blocks though becouse of the limited space you often have at home. I do practise one step back or forward when practising simple self defense applications though.
good workout, I'm learning a lot at home because of your video's.i don't have the time to go to k'classes, you have been just what i was looking for.keep up the good work sensei walker..thx

Dear Sensei: I am very happy to watch your videos. They are full of information and excellent techniques. I would love to be in contact with you through email. Thanks :)
I think I just need someone to count so I'll have the motivation to train, so thanks a lot, I'm drenched in sweat and feeling great now. Also, this might be uncalled for, but are you open to criticism when it comes to the execution? Just one little thing I noticed.

Thank you for this! I am looking for basics (kihon) training. I wish this were longer, but it's still great. Thank you for doing this!
my shihan preferred being called as sensei because according to his theory, he is still young looking to be called shihan, he is 40 yo
Question sir, when practicing your normal punches, why are you standing completely upright and not in a horse stance?
Thanks that's all
Sensei,
I am a student from Australia studying in a style called Shindo Karate( which is based on Shotokan). I currently hold the rank of Shodan-Ho and next month I am testing for my full Shodan. I just wanted to say that your videos have made a big impact on my training in a positive way and that I thank you for this. You have my everlasting gratitude. Oss.
oss, hi sensei i am 38 yrs old and practicing shotokan karate . I am currently purple 2.The problem is, my sensei told me i am too stiff, like an ironing board, do you have any suggestion for me. How can I fix this, I would appreciate your reply. Thank you.
That’s great. Thanks.
I use this video as a guide for my training. Perhaps you could do one for a little more advanced class works?
Thx for this video. what dan black belt are you?
Thank you for this video. Would you have a version showing the feet?
hi too you my sensei i love all your videos you are my idol. i am now a blue belter because off you thanks alot
Sensei, I have a question . How long should I spend in every session for practicing basics? I am a busy professional and hardly get any time to practice.How much time should I spend every day to master karate?
Oss please what's your name sensei 🥋🥋🌹🌹🌹🌹
thank you! I don't currently have the time to go to practice as often as I used to so this will come in handy
thank you sensei
You are amazing .. I've almost seen all your videos, but you can not adjust cameraet so we can see your legs? 1000 thanks for your educational videos :) From IQ-do Denmark!
Oss!!! Check out my response to MrLordofDub above regarding the test. Absolute life changing, phenomenal moment.
How are you doing with your training and the test? Hope all is well! Let me know, I'm rooting for you!
it seems to me that you completely missunderstood the concept of a tsuki, e.g. a straight forward punch. imho you should not snap the fist towards your target in the last moment of the technique, instead it should be a linear, straight motion of your fist and hand towards the target. Also your gedan-barai looks way to high for me...
+Florian Wiessner seems he's throwing his elbow out instead of keeping it behind his fist. correct me if I am wrong.
Florian Wiessner You've both cut out the hidden short punch inside the suggested tsuki motion (in case the opponent suddenly moves in), and the ability to cut your opponent's skin, by not waiting for the last moment to twist the punch. Goju-ryu does it a very similar way for the same reason.
Evera Outta Hidden Punch??? The snap at starttime occures only With full Speed.
Thank you so much for your videos, Sensei! I wish I could have learned directly from you and do hope you will continue to upload more videos.
Thank you sir
wow I used to do this years ago. I'm 38 now and I only made it half way through the vid. Will try again tomorrow ;) How did the black belt go?
Thank you brother.its very useful to us.
you videos have really helped myself and my daughters understand the various techniques. I downloaded them to teach them at home when they have not gotten or remembered techniques from class, keep up the good work
I love your vids sensei. OSU.
I was looking for this for so long
Please sensei look at mikeslessons, on drums, maybe you could copy that idea for karate
Shotokan karate
Thank u sensei, for ur guidance. I am following ur advice and getting result too.Thanks a lot.
pero si ni si quiera sabe recoger la pierna al hacer mae gueri
Thsnks for this excelent class Sensei.Oss!
Your karate is superb sir! I respect you !
Thankz for the video sensei :)
i believe that shotokan is the most powerfull karate. no one can defeat shotokan
Kyokushin says hi. Don’t get me wrong, I love Shotokan but there’s not enough emphasis on sparring and body conditioning and almost focus entirely on kata. Kata’s good, but you need sparring too.
i wish i can train with u
thank you Sensei for creating this.
Great ! Thank you!!
Very useful. Thank you.
Osu!
os sensie :) thank u
Thanks all the best
Great training!
OSU !
thank you!
Thank you Sensei for this great lesson ! Oss !
You are without a doubt good at your trade and I respect you for that .
I also practice Shotokan .
My problem is practice what you preach .
Do every thing slow and it looks great get speed involved and it all goes pear shaped .
How can you tell me keep your elbows when nearly every punch you throw you your elbow leads to the side .19.03 perfect example .
Please comment
Paul Walker. After so many years now only I've heard your name.
Thanks for checking in. We made it. My son was a champ, ripped through the whole thing...me...at 45, kind of limped across the finish line but I made it. Just the most fulfilling and incredible experience of my life, we did it together. Our test was three days, sparring was the last thing we did and our Sensei ended the test with my son and I sparring...sort of a tribute to us sticking it out together. It was a great moment, the whole dojo erupted in cheers, it was awesome.
