Spent his life studying an art that remained an art and was never really used. That's the only thing about martial arts, you can't or hardly ever use it, but you put so much time and money into it that you wonder why bother? Yes, I know,,,I love martial arts, they are fascinating and good exercise, but in the end they really don't do much for you...
I practised this style when I was younger. The core principles are still with me and have helped me exceed. Footwork is focused on balance, the core is held firm and upright and use your body's mechanics to deliver power where and when you need it. Theres also the emphasis on turning an opponents attack into a weakness. Theres a lot of good stuff engrained inside the art.
Could you do break boards with the fingertip strikes and big toe kicks? That stuff in insane ! Those big toe kicks, man...I can't even watch guys practice that stuff...forget about doing it myself. I'll just use the ball of my foot, like the rest of the non-psychos lol just kidding. I've always found it to be a fascinating style.
Great video!!! God bless the soul of Sensei Gushi. I've had the honor of training in the art of Pangainoon for 12 years. Gushi was an inspiration to us all
@lolxldoubledouble It favors smaller people, but I've seen both big and small do well in Uechi Ryu. The term "ripped" is often used incorrectly. Many believe it to be mean big muscles, but physiologically it simply refers to muscle definition, which you can have at any size. This gentleman, Sensei Guchi, is certainly a good example. Watch him do the kata Sanchin, or better yet, "Uechi-ryu hand conditioning 2." He's definitely ripped for a man his size.
Uechi Ryu is based upon the crane, the tiger and the dragon. Kyohide sensei says, mythical dragons do not exist but rather the dragon represents hurricanes & tornados in Okinawa. Uechi Ryu relies heavily upon strength conditioning of the fingers, the nails, bones, tendons and ligaments. The penetrating tiger's tooth, index knuckle, punch. The seizing tiger's mouth strike. The ball of the dragon strike. The finger jabs and spear finger thrusts. The penetrating toe kick. The baseball bat breaking shin kick that resembles a muay thai roundhouse shin kick. The ball bat breaking, radial bone, wrist bashing strike to break the neck vertebrae. Elbow strikes. And soft tissue, flesh tearing, seizing attacks. All Uechi Ryu empty hand weapons.
Traditional martial arts represent much more than fighting. Whilst I have been a fan, and trained in MMA, at my current age there is no future in a young persons type of training and I have returned to my traditional MA roots. There comes a time when we all begin to feel the ravages of aging. However, Shinyu Gushi sensei remains an inspiration even though he passed away a few months ago and I believe was training shortly before his death.
@@Supermomo2007 may I suggest beginning with what you are interested in, the traditional route is a life long gift, it is vast and often includes mma, for example many karate styles today feature elements of mma
I agree with you 100% Did Muay Thai and traditional kung fu, went back to kung fu because I kept getting hurt in Muay Thai, not eventfrom sparring but just too much bang on the body. But traditional kung fu, at least my studio needs to pick up the pace of the workouts.
Brad Thibodeau i know nothing about this am extremely curious. how did you arrange the training? and how much did it cost? maintaining a dojo as nice as that must have cost a lot
A ooint missing in all of this is that these techniques are for self defense not fighting. Yes you are correct that these are not meant to go against boxers , MMA or competitve sport. These techniques are combatives, designed to defend yourself and escape not go toe to toe. I trained with both the late Mr Gushi and the attacker( the attacker is my current teacher.) Uechi is for self defense not sparring and these are 2 different things.
Idk man i believe you but even so what happen when you need to defend yourself from a boxer or a muay thai guy seems a little lacking. Idk i would have like to see the attacker resist a little more tbh.
It's less so that these techniques are 'dangerous' (Shaolin, for example, is very peaceful) but moreso that these represent a different type of fight. In sport MA, your body is warmed up, prepped for encounter. You're there to fight block then attack then block again, etc). Old styles aren't built for the fight, but are built to end. Thus, the training built around simultaneous attacks and defense. Once you've understood the principles, the techniques flow into one another. The reason why you don't see them in televised fights nowadays is because the fights themselves would appear rather boring to the uninitiated (ex. people would think that the opponent was just a bad practitioner). But occasionally you would see someone using the principles of older styles while keeping the techniques you're used to seeing in modern styles (Machida, for example)
+FoieGras I always say this when people say Uechi isnt a great style. Its not meant for a back and forth fight. Someone comes at you, you defend and attack in one move and traditionally all the moves end with a kill strike. This style was meant to quickly dispatch opponents. It would never work in MMA, but thats not whats its for.
shaolin is not peaceful. this style doesn't seem too different from shaolin kung fu. the only difference is rather than block then attack, a lot of kung fu is block while attacking. attacks to the eye, throat, and genitals are extremely common.
I've trained in Chinese Gung Fu for 32 years now. I am not a Karate Ka. However, the conditioning makes great sense to me. Whether soft or hard, the conditioning of our fingers, arms and body over time creates not only a barrier between us and grave harm, but power. I'm sure we use different techniques to condition, but in attacks we have the same aim. And when you're hand becomes a spear; your legs become as granite columns and your chest becomes like iron, you don't worry about your opponents attack as much as the timing and execution of your attack.
These techniques are highly practical and are designed to end a fight in split seconds. For a long time, the only loss Fedor Emelyanenko suffered in MMA was after receiving an accidental elbow cut. Imagine how devastating a purposeful attack would be. The masters train their bodies and minds to hit small moving targets with extreme precision under stress conditions.
As you well know, the karate is learned thru kihon, kumite and kata, inlcuding bunkai. The more realistic training is, the higher is the risk of injury, so you gotta draw the line somewhere, and most instructors play it safe, rightfully so.
I think what happened, was that over time Kata's and forms were over emphasized, especially when karate made it to the USA. When karate became a business all of it's practicality went out the window.
i dont practice this stuff, but im sure in a real scenario they wont do it exactly by traditional form, but by some sort of application. Kinda like how knowing how to transfer your center of gravity can be applied to several sports. I myself, would do something similar to 2:25. I have no doubt in my mind that is an effective move to use on guys. Combine that with whatever steel fingers they have. Oh god, the pain that will cause lol
Many masters make modifications and have their own styles, to prevent personal injury and serious injury to opponents as well. I’ve trained under two sensei separately, both of which have received training under the same master and it surprised me how differently their integrations and interpretation on things were, these were both well respected Sensei
Proof, how about every army in existence? Everyone from the greeks to the romans had to control their training to avoid maiming their men before war, they didnt gouge their eyes out or stab each other with swords with each session. And if you see a grandmaster who you feel is off technically, and doesnt exhibit any attributes you wish to emulate, then you dont train with them, its that simple. But you dont have amazing foresight before then.
Most obviously, these techniques are not allowed under MMA, because they are unsafe. For example, attacks on eyes or the spinal cord are not allowed, being extremely dangerous. In case you refer to real combat situations, combat systems that employ attacks on vulnerabilities, such are Krav Maga, are popular and practical. Just as Uechi-ryu, Krav Maga is not practiced as free kumite, since the techniques are so dangerous.
The techniques shown are obviously shown on at a slowspeed, and actually seem very un-impressive i will agree. but its the knowledge repetition and conditioning of the fighter that usually determins a winner. I can assure you that that old man, is very dangerous. though in this video he is going slow, once again, repetition is what makes ANY martial art effective or even viable. i have seen first hand the effectiveness of this martial art, and the underlying key is lead hand/guide hand technique
@Ariel1Dominguez What the hell is Quan fa? lol... just Mandarin for "Fist ways" or "Fist Methods" ... and is what all Chinese refer to as Wushu.(because PRC has turned wushu into a dance most traditional arts from china refer to themselves as Quan fa to distinguish themselves away from Wushu
Wow! Very different but great stuff indeed. Hopefully some groups in Okinawa will preserve their real karate for the day that the popular karate world awakes from it's coma.
I don't know who you fought in the 70's, but I sincerely doubt it was Shinyu Gushi, who, to the best of my knowledge, has lived his whole life in Okinawa, and has never done tournament competition in the U.S. Apart from George Mattson's Uechi-ryu students in the Boston area, there was very little Uechi-ryu in the U.S. at that time at all. And if you're old enough to have competed then, haven't you matured enough to not be talking about making people "squeal like a pig"?
With respect, that's like asking how one can know that firearms training can work without shooting at an armed opponent who is shooting back. You yourself said that you cannot use it safely in a free fight. Perhaps our idea of a free fight is different from yours. One doesn't train in a free fight with a 1911 45 acp, but that doesn't mean he won't be able to employ the handgun better thanks to controlled training.
Ok, this would be valid if you went around being in a bunch of street fights and taking record, which i doubt you were or was even possible, so i dont see how the comment about not seeing it used in any fight as being valid. And in your state of thinking, i guess national armies and police forces should stop shooting in gun ranges, or training in mimic fights with non-lethal bullets, since it will add nothing to their readiness for combat since they arent shooting a real body.
Lol, every soldier started green, buddy. They learned on the gun ranges shooting at targets and being instructed by words. Yes, competition does raise attributes, but it doesnt mean we stop training in what these sports consider illegal moves. A soldier doesnt stop training with a real rifle in the range after playing with toy guns in warfare simulation games. "the stop dangerous moves because you cant use them in sports, so they wont work"- is always a strange arguement.
this is what the hand conditioning of this style specializes in. for the neck area, you would grab onto the collar bone or muscles right above. if you're grabbing in the waist area, you would grab them by the side abdominal muscles or fat in the surrounding areas. the hands in this style are conditioned for both seriously penetrating attacks and extreme grip strength starting at the finger tips. if you've ever had someone lift you off the ground by your side abdominal muscles then you would know how much pain and damage this can inflict.
You grab on to the person's flesh literally. I trained Karate Karate similar to this 20 years ago. Nowadays now body wants to put the time into learning to fight in this manner.
All these moves are illegal in MMA. Stop asking about effectiveness in MMA against muay thai and such. If every single movement is banned, how can practitioner even fight in a tournament? A nut grab and rip would end the fight no matter how skilled you are in muay thai. There is a reason why Uechi-ryu does lots of grip conditioning. The whole point is to tear flesh and you obviously can't do that in a legally sanctioned fight.
Lol, if you learn karate's rigid and unnatural movements you couldn't even touch a boxer or thai boxer (let alone "teae flesh") in a real fight before they smash your head with proper kicks or punches.
People can talk all the smack they want. Karate and taekwondo saved me in jail where there’s no referees or rules and it’s actually life threatening and your in a confined space where boxing isn’t as effective
Your not well informed, high ranking people such as 7th, to 10th Dans these people are promoted to this rank for knowledge and what they have contributed to Karate. They are of age group of 40 - 70 years or more, obviously no longer of fighting age. Unlike in the USA where you have tenth Dans that are in their 30's, basically a joke. You it seems is the typical american who has probably never trained in Okinawa, if you have maybe a month or so. Knows very little about traditional Karate.
This is still basic technique when compared to real Quan fa... He is still blocking then striking. With Quan fa... one strikes and blocks at the same time in one movement.
lol. the fact that they hold last moment does not mean that they can't , quite the opposite! it's about having Control , with 1phrase: if necessary-unleash i'd call your statement of fault, ill reason, then again who cares (enough) (to even bother)?
+Marko Ivančičević Don't misunderstand this Demonstration in real Karate First comes Right then comes Fast. This is how real Karate on Okinawa is Taught. Also it is taught to React instantaneously to a sudden Threat, Not in a Ring.
Dawn Girard sorry man but I have to respectfully disagree. I studied Uechi Ryu for 4 years in my early teens and have been doing bjj for almost a year now. I gotta say the core principles of Uechi Ryu have really helped me with my bjj. The small stances and crane stances from the katas of uechi ryu helped to centralize strength around the core which has been incredibly helpful with takedown defense. The signature circle and wrist blocks have helped in shedding gi grips around the wrist. Its harder with a lapel grip but a gentle circle block can not only prevent the grab but allow you to establish wrist control or wrap up the arm. If you take Uechi Ryu for what it is technique for technique, I agree a palm strike to the face and mid section aren't going to save you. Centralizing your strength, moving swiftly and blocking quickly however are valuable things. Uechi Ryu is very quick and powerful in nature
Dawn Girard BJJ and judo has no chance against multiple attacks and a thai boxer has less chance against defending from a knife attack. EVERY art has its weakness.

Uechi ryu is my favorite karate style. I feel so fortunate to have found it.

So beautiful. I trained there briefly with master Gushi in 2002. Such an honor to have those memories. He was an inspiration ☯️

Think about it...Okinawa Karate is not used as a sport but more so self-defense.
Yes. It can be very dangerous in sparing through

My uncle fought 4 men with this technique. It’s all about fighting dirty, finger into they eyes, kicking the testicles etc
That guy is v strong he may be thin but he is v strong. Karate is the best thing to strengthen the body and mind as one. How old is he?
it's a holistic combat system. once you take out most dangerous weapons, the rest of the system becomes less effective.
Just now i discover that what i learn from my father style was uechi ryu karate.
Did you see the self-control in the techniques? Inspiring.

Yeah right, remember "boards don't hit back" ? Well welcome to "opponents don't hit back" Uechi ryu edition ! #Mythojutsu #Bullshido
Very good movements but bad applications. As excellent katana with bad cuts.
"inefficient and of questionable effectiveness" pleonasm much

Don't misunderstand this Demonstration in real Karate First comes Right then comes Fast. This is how real Karate on Okinawa is Taught. Also it is taught to React instantaneously to a sudden Threat, Not in a Ring.
Too much ball-grabbing!
unrealistic waste of time. thai boxing. judo or bjj. theres no such thing as magic.
Dawn Girard sorry man but I have to respectfully disagree. I studied Uechi Ryu for 4 years in my early teens and have been doing bjj for almost a year now. I gotta say the core principles of Uechi Ryu have really helped me with my bjj. The small stances and crane stances from the katas of uechi ryu helped to centralize strength around the core which has been incredibly helpful with takedown defense. The signature circle and wrist blocks have helped in shedding gi grips around the wrist. Its harder with a lapel grip but a gentle circle block can not only prevent the grab but allow you to establish wrist control or wrap up the arm. If you take Uechi Ryu for what it is technique for technique, I agree a palm strike to the face and mid section aren't going to save you. Centralizing your strength, moving swiftly and blocking quickly however are valuable things. Uechi Ryu is very quick and powerful in nature
Dawn Girard BJJ and judo has no chance against multiple attacks and a thai boxer has less chance against defending from a knife attack. EVERY art has its weakness.
Lol you have been hit by finger strikes, I have sparring with my brother and they hurt.
