For the viewer's information: the speed she puts into her arms is like a double edged sword. meaning ,it shows incredible speed but to stop that speed the ligaments and tendons are suffered to sudden pull. Further more use of such speed results in arm dislocation and tendon tearning. She has told this in her interview.
yeah but after training and practice wouldn't be the ligaments became much stronger or something?
@@mohamadserhan9581 only if you can keep breaking the tendons and ligaments im bare minimum. Because for example more you break your ankles, more likely they will break again in the future when you start to be in age of 50-60 if you dont keep working out to make your muscles to keep your tendons intact.
It doesnt mean exercise and practicing is bad, just dont over do things and keep a good eye on your body.
That's a good point. We are told to keep our arms and legs relaxed when doing kicks and strikes, in order to avoid this very possibility. Having said that, I've met any number of very high ranking black belts (6th degree and higher) and none of them have complained of arms being dislocated or having tendons torn.
@@TheTewjr im not expert or anythign but i read somewhere about partial training which increases our tendons and ligaments strength, maybe they did those?
@@jackbizare84 I would assume so. Strength training is a usual part of martial arts training.
This girl looks like she can perform the 8 Trigrams 64 Palms technique in real life
Deep down we all know , Rika Usami is reincarnation of Hinata Hyuga
Nah... Hyuuga Clan Not Using Karate Style (And She's Fast ,, But Not As Fast As Hinata or Neji 😅)
lmao
The just had to say something about Naruto
Weeb. But yeah Guy sensei would be proud.
I know nothing how this is supposed to look, but I'm awestruck. This probably has taken years to perfect. Absolutely amazing.
As Sharp as a knife.
Well you chose the right video... This is as close to perfection as it gets
It does, it takes months if not years to master this level of discipline in those movements, I did Taekwondo as a kid till middle school and believe me, the poomsae/kata are the hardest stage besides basic training exercises.
@@chaiyaa2times622 Believe me it takes 5 years minimum to get this level, if you are gifted.
@@bogse Ik, I myself practiced 4 years of Taekwondo and barely made it to the blue/green belt, wasn’t gifted lol but it made good memories and learnt to surpass myself physically. Never forget those moments.
She's so hypnotizing... The response of the crowd makes it even more emotional.
Actually the crowd is quite annoying
@@Kimijun78 mind your words ... how can a idiot understand the love and respect understand given by the audience.
The crowd are awful be quiet
Nah rather annoying. They should've stayed quiet
Annoying crowd
The sound when she moves is just so satisfying
Woshh wossh wosh)))
Yup all those ligaments and tendons getting stretched.... Why cuz with that speed when she has to stop it strains the ligaments and tendons
Its the cloth as well.
It’s the clothes, I have a shureido gi and it makes the same sound if I run
@@lekolmizikfolklolabowi1212 It's not ligaments or tendons, it's the uniform snapping. The judges listen for that sound as a way to help judge speed. Some of us even starch our uniforms before a test or tournament to make the snap more noticeable.
Rika Usami be like:
"They told me to clean my weapons, so i washed my hands"
Absolutely
Wow that's feels like a dialogue from some historic movie by the main character!
I am 100 % stealing that line. :D
LOL
LOL!
This is kata at its absolute finest. Pure, precise, clean.. I mean her posturing was absolutely perfect the entire routine.
Absolute top class.
its this kata shotokan or shito ryu, thanks
@@luisgarces5949 This is shito ryu.
I realy consider myself a stoic man but Everytime EVERYTIME I watch this I cry coz how beautifuly she did this kata.There is no pefection in martial arts,you can always do it better,But even Sandy knew It here that was the closest to perfection.O M G cant hold my tears how beautiful she performed this kata.
This is literally every kid in their bedroom after watching their first martial arts movie
@@JiangHongrie Do u Do u
Not even kids...

THIS COMMENT
Amazing performance but the audience clapping while she was doing her routine is annoying.....
Totally
It is EXTREMELY annoying, and disrespectful. ...and that clapping at 2:50 ?!? It's not a f***ing football game!
She also clapped to make this sound, so it's draw ;)
Totally agreed. My people are ignorant, please forgive this french Audience
Maybe the audience is formed by experts who understand every single steps of the karateka 👧 ( trd Google translate)
That was amazing. So much strength, beauty, and focus. How she got emotional at the end; you can tell she is extremely dedicated to this.
I return to this performance time and again because it's so crisp and inspirational. I don't understand why the crowd doesn't hold their applause... it's so intrusive.
I was captivated by the intriguing sound of karate performer's attire made with every move. Could you share how that captivating sound is achieved?
@@__skywalker__ awesome speed and power and a special type of gi that enhance the effect, but you first need to get the techniques right, no special gi can do that. I've seen people wearing those stiff gi but lack fundamentals and they end up creating annoying russling sounds instead
They were so excited with that performance that they just could not hold the aplause and the cheers
Thank you RUclips algorithm. Now, at 31 years of age, I'm mad at my mom for never putting me in karate as a child.
You can always try doing karate, the age isn't really important. The important part is the discipline and the effort you put to learn. I hope you'll consider the option of doing karate!
Chuck norris started at 33.
My grandad started with 60 years old. Today he is black belt. Is Never too late.
Why it’s an ineffective form of self defence anyway
Just do it right now
When she visits you, you are the guest...
Sound like russian but no it was JAPANESE
Stupid
Wow.. are you always this original? I've totally never heard this joke before!
@@mishikokenkebashvili879 nice one bro 😏
I've seen plenty a kata in my life both live and on screen and I've never seen anyone do it the way Rika Usami does it. It's poetry in motion.
Hello ! Excuse me for giving a little presentation of Islam, because it is very misunderstood nowadays, especially on those « Antichrist's » times, where media and politics are mixed to distort history and truth. Thank you.
Islam is an arabic word that means the Surrender to God the One and Only one, our Creator, Protector, Provider, who gives us life and all that we have, we are safe and sound by his will and grace, we are His and to Him we return, and we have to thank him in this trial life by submitting to him by our free will, or later in the Day of judgment when it's too late to save our own skin. Islam was the original Religion descended to earth from heaven with Adam and Eve (peace and blessing be upon them) in the beginning of humanity. and was passed to people with the succession of the 124 000 prophets and 315 messengers of God to all nations and civilizations since, passing by Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Ismaël, Joseph, Moses, Aaron, Joshua, David, Solomon and Jesus (Peace and blessing be upon them) during the history of mankind, the last replaces and completes the previous, until the succession of the last messenger of God fourteen centuries ago, Muhammad (Peace and blessing be upon him) to complete the noble morals of all mankind, to bring humans and jinns out of darkness into light, and to purify people's religion and belief from corruption and polytheism, and return it to purity and true monotheism, like it was in the times of the prophets (Peace and blessing be upon them).
Many Religions that we know nowadays, at their beginning were true and under Islam, initiated by one of the prophets of God, but their original teachings, history and scriptures have been corrupted over time with falsification and polytheism, or lost and replaced with false ones. That's why Islam is the only Religion accepted by God nowadays, which consists in bearing witness that there is no god besides Allah (God in Aramaic, the original language of Jesus and the Gospel), and that Muhammad is His servant and messenger, just like Jesus and Moses and others are His servants and messengers. Never a messenger of God said he was God or literally son of God, it was the people after him who changed the words of God and corrupted the Religion. God is unique and absolute, He does not need to have a family and sons or to associate anyone else with His kingdom, He can simply create whatever He wants, everything belongs to Him, and to Him everything will return. Allah said in Surah Al-Mu’minun : “God has never begotten a son, nor is there any god besides Him. Otherwise, each god would have taken away what it has created, and some of them would have gained supremacy over others. Glory be to God, far beyond what they describe. The Knower of the hidden and the manifest. He is exalted, far above what they associate. (91-92 / Translated by ITANI))
Allah means the one and only God, the God of all prophets and creatures, the creator of the universe and mankind, and the Master of the Day of judgment, where our destiny, Hell or Paradise, is decided based on our faith and deeds in this trial life, and above all, Allah's mercy.
Allah said in Surah Al-Ikhlas : In the name of God, the Gracious, the Merciful.
Say, “He is God, the One. God, the Absolute. He begets not, nor was He begotten. And there is none comparable to Him.” (1-4 / Translated by ITANI)
Allah said in Surah An-Nisa : O FOLLOWERS of the Gospel! Do not overstep the bounds [of truth] in your religious beliefs, and do not say of God anything but the truth. The Christ Jesus, son of Mary, was but God's Apostle - [the fulfilment of] His promise which He had conveyed unto Mary - and a soul created by Him. Believe, then, in God and His apostles, and do not say, "[God is] a trinity". Desist [from this assertion] for your own good. God is but One God; utterly remote is He, in His glory, from having a son: unto Him belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth; and none is as worthy of trust as God. Never did the Christ feel too proud to be God's servant, nor do the angels who are near unto Him. And those who feel too proud to serve Him and glory in their arrogance [should know that on Judgment Day] He will gather them all unto Himself: (171-172 / Translated by Muhammad Asad).
Salam (Peace).
I only studied Karate for 3 months, but even I can see the beauty and perfection in this
If she tells you to wash the dishes...you wash the dishes.
Ha,ha, ha !
Frank Maclow if you are afraid of a person doing kata then you really dont know what fighting is.
@@georgegeorgiou2588 wish!
@Nikeimizhong and never come back.
Japan is a great country no doubt
3:18 that face when you know you just lost, but you're fine with it cuz your opponent clearly deserves it
Yep, much respect to both of them...!
and that's true victory in a fight.. earning your opponent's respect
She looks typical bad girl
Vegeta esque
Isn't she Sandra Sánchez? She is a Hell of an opponent, but Usami's technique, always so pristine, was so incredibly perfect here, that no other reaction would be fair.
I really love Usami's technique... Not a fan of karate but her skills, just as Soke Yoshimi Inoue, are simply mesmerizing... Perfect domination of the body.
More graceful than a ballet. Really so beautiful, loved the emotion at the end where she allowed herself to give in a little bit!
Within the time you've blinked, she's hit you, and you're falling.
I'll be falling in love faster than that

Yeah but my glock don't blink so whasup
@@FrancesStudios there's always that one dude comin with a glock to a fistfight
@@infiniteinfinity18 jajaja there aint no fistfights nowadays take too much time
This is how a kata should be done. Fast, clean, precise, and accurate. No over-the-top screaming, no Haka faces, no weird gymnastics, none of the crap being taught to impress the small minded, that is being propagated amongst some dojo’s and is being rewarded by judges.
Just high quality (Top quality) technique.
Fantastic.
Great athletes awesome to watch them showcase their skills
Yes taekwondo is trash
Over the top screaming that’s remind me of Stephanie Figueroa who love to scream doing a karate
What's absurd is how many American Black Belts don't even come close to being as clean in executing moves.
@@Ranakade most martial arts in America is a joke. You buy your belts and don’t earn them. But this woman is very skilled and you can hear her power. I bet she hits hard for her size!

This was emotional. Very very emotional. She did a master piece. The last time I did kata on a tournament is 20 years ago. She easily beats the men world class.
There should be rules and suggestions to stay quiet during Kata performance. Keep the applause till the end please.
Thank you! That was very annoying. It seemed like every 10 seconds they were clapping. And there wasn't even a spectacular technique being used. I mean, she did great. But, every 7 movements doesn't deserve an applause.
Van Q Nguyen
Agree as this is not a speech to pause every time they start to clap.
Van Q Nguyen do i go to your job and knock the broom out of your hands I think not...
husserliana I do appreciate people supporting for her. But I think it should be appropriate, at the end of her performance. As the judging components including the sounds from her movements and correct breathing, the clapping do not really help. And btw, at her level, I believe she was so focused on her movements that I don’t think she would even hear the claps. I take it from my own past experience in performing Kata
Ikr
Every now and then, you catch someone at the very peak of what has been a lifetime of preparation, and it is magical to watch.
You said it So well..
Imagine what she would look like if she didn't cheat in her performances by slapping her sleeve before each hand movement.
@@andysloane79 you clearly know better than the judges, right on Andy. Keep it up.
@@thomasbrown5267 Slow down the speed of the video and you can clearly see she slaps her sleeve. Parlor tricks and deceit. I don't need to do that to win.
@@andysloane79 I'll take the judges word over Andy from youtube that whatever she's doing is the best in the world. Cheers for your input though.
She had perfect center and balance. That is the point of kata. Not screaming and doing flips. Excellent!
So much admiration and respect for those who devote their lives to learning and mastering their craft, especially those who study martial arts and excel in them ultimately bringing such magnificent displays of their talent and respect.
The most remarkable moment was how she maintained her composure and reserve as she did the kata and then upon winning, she becomes very emotional and cries. That was a very beautiful moment.
As black belt myself, I've trained in karate for 13 years. Never have I seen such perfection, her form is so clean. Clearly worthy of being best in the world
I was that good at blue belt :D
I believe it's strength and practice which allow you to be swift.
goe5 OMG you have the Blake belt Wish me luck to have it
@Joshua Hull you're so awesome - I wish I could be you.
+Joshua Hull, Your an idiot and you have no idea what true martial arts are. When you say you did Muay Thai i hear. " I was into cardio kickboxing for dudes tho!" Your matches in a ring have nothing to do with real combat or the dicipline it takes to be good at it.
Years ago my Sensei told me in my first day in the Dojo that if the uniform does this kind of sound when performing moves, it means you're doing them right. In her case right here, yeah she absolutely nailed it!

lmao, I'm dying here solid gold comment.
I'm very impressed. Look at the snap in the motion. The speed and the accuracy of movement. And the look on her face. Serious intent. That comes from passion, hard work, and dedication.
The strength, flexibility, time, energy, personal sacrifice, pain, dedication and love that this woman spent to get to this level.... There are no words that can portray how I feel right now as I watch this. Nor are there words to describe a how greatly respect her. Only that, she is an inspiration to all those of us who value the traditional martial arts. What a wonderful demonstration. Wow.... just wow
Bro she's so deadly her opponent didn't even turn up but she STILL fought. A true shadow warrior ninja. Respect from the UK.
She moves so perfectly it seems like the frame rate dropped...... o.O
That power behind the fast twitch is awesome
As a 2nd Dan in Karate, I have to say she is mind-blowing. Everything she does is perfect. Very impressive!

It's all an act, showbiz, so relax.
TLDR: Made sure my little niece saw this 'very serious dance'.
After some time I think I've figured out why this particular display evokes just major emotion in me and clearly others as well. It's the look on her face! It's the proof that this is Rika Usami "Honestly expressing herself" And that honesty will beat proud mountains down.
Anyhoo, after christmas gifts were unwrapped I take my niece aside, blonde curls, bright eyes and all and show her this video. We watch with grandma. 'Little Miss' loves to dance and she was clearly impressed. I wanted her to see someone who was female bodied and wielded power. Just the raw emotion and genuine expression of ability and power is staggering. Floors me everytime. Rika Usami forever.
Absolutely amazing performance.

I am in awe of Rika Usami. Her Kata was an insurmountable work of beauty. Poetry in motion in it's truest sense.
I'm new to karate can yoy tell me which kata she's doing?
Kanku dai/ kusanku
This is perfect technique for demonstration of Kata. This is really quite special to see, and you can see in her eyes - the intent with each blow is DEATH and had she actually hit somebody with any of that, that will cause big big damage even with her slender lightweight frame.
PERFECT technique on show here, I am blown away with this. I did Karate for 3 years but never seen this level achieved and it was AMAZING :)
Don't be a simp.
@@manchuratt8900 Simping means paying for stuff and worshipping somebody personally and paying for the permission to do it...
What you read here was just respectful attentions, I don't believe that to be simping.
You can see how much Karate means to her, especially in the end when she cries. She is completely devoted to it. It's her religion.
That’s not why she’s crying. You see when she was around 12 her father banished her from her home. The only way she could return was if she capture a championship, but no one has seen a championship for 100yrs. Not letting her discourage her she traveled with her wise uncle in search of a championship and well... she succeeded.

What I love about Karate masters is how they have that "I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to kill you now" look I their eyes.
Specific, and good description.
Perfect and better than many experts, and she's only a beginner: not even 1st Dan.
@@wordeye actually she is a black belt. She only wears blue belt for competition
Yes, it's all part of the performance art they call kata. Karate like this has nothing to do with fighting. I bet she's never actually hit or been hit by anyone in her whole life.
@@HO-bndk then, in what martial art do u actually beat people up?
Gosh, how can she do the kata with all these people clapping and even trying to set a pace?! So rude. Officials should ask the crowd to shut the ef up. She was amazing.
I know. 'like who comes to make clapping hands sound - for Martial Art' !!
I agree, potentially very distracting. BUT I have heard that in some places in Europe they clap in unison to show their unified acceptance and appreciation for whatever is taking place. So to them they're giving her honor... however incorrect the method.
@@sthiel126 Oh, that's interesting! Where I am from Europe it's normally one idiot trying to clap a beat to a music performance and everyone else joining just 'cause. It do is a sign that the crowd likes the performance but I personally see it as disrespectful too, as it's breaking the performers concentration and distracting. It's especially bad when the performer has to listen to background music or other fellow performers/ when others in the crowd just want to attentively listen to the performance or just enjoy it. In western classical music it's even considered a no-go to clap anytime else than the end of the piece.
u guys lack in zen.

I love how fast the judges flags went up, "She won!""
Judge's flags have to and always do go up so fast
Macah Dahma she's been competing since she was a sapling
Is Sean white still the man?........ Oh wait....... Sorry I thought we were talking snow boarding.
Wow! Absolutely amazing.
I never get tired of seeing her, pure perfection
She has killed 500 invisible people, and know one noticed.
No**
I'm wondering if she has any idea what those moves mean. Most people in the sport world have no idea of the self-defense moves in every Kata move is to kill someone. Or can be watered down to a knockout.
Nooooooo
500 Ninjas*
@@Watchdog826 yup, katas are basically a showcase of actual fighting moves but like you said, some people just learn then up and doesn't know how to use then in a real fight... it's just sad
She's beautiful and strong ❤️💪
Totally agree
@Mark Kenny She's doesn't seem like it to me a 5'4 woman is still 5'4 and a woman. You have to sound that way in tournament kata.
Tine
She looks sexual as hell
the Original Strong, Independent beautiful woman who can defend herself
Rika Usami performance in 2012 is legendary. She was competing in Paris, in the final against french player, Sandy Scordo - and yet ge received standing applause from the french audience. That's how good she was. Truly epic.
eu venho aqui todos os dias apreciar essa obra de arte
She looks like an actress, she's very pretty.
I believe she is on a Netflix show "my wife's a gangster"
Thank you! I thought I was the only one who felt that way!
@@hrimaahgnizn3942 wut?? No that's shu qi, very famous Chinese actress. This girl here is Japanese
Romes Republic
I was just thinking the same
She is also a sexy hot martial artist bitch that f’cks anybody standing in her way by delivering some crazy karate skill to defeat them asses
This was simply brilliant 👍
ナイフのような切れ味♥️何度見ても凄い‼️
That power, precision. You can see the amount of time she devotes to her training and skill...
Lol...
All show no action !!!
@@nounouphothirath5403 you do realise that this literally is for show...right? It is to demonstrate the "art" part of martial arts...
@@KiraHellhammer That's because a lot of "martial arts" are basically just dancing lol
@@lightswitch1483 again ...yeah...what part of my comments indicated that I am not aware of this. This is like dancing. And as with any physical art, as such I appreciate her perfect control over her own body and her, what I assume to be extraordinary, dedication to practice and train herself to become perfection in the art.
If you want to make fun of this by stating that you would rather prefer to see combat application and that this performance therefore has no merit, you have chosen the wrong content ...and probably the wrong troll 😏
@@KiraHellhammer it never ceases to amaze me how people come to others people spheres to make negative comments. Once they find out it was not to their liking move on to what pleases your thoughts, ears, & eyes. They can't resist the urge to make comments that are out of context. I have enjoyed myself with her performance. All the best to you.
That's how it's done,speed power and technique.
Her tears at the end, prove she´s not a Terminator. Awesome!
Rika is amazing! She deliver it very well!
年齢的に、難しかっただろうけど、東京オリンピックに出て欲しかった‼️惜しいなあ❗️表情、演舞 全てに美しかった‼️🙁
後進に譲ったんでしょうねえ。
金獲れなかったけど。
You can tell she's graceful with her movements even on simple ones like the one from 00:49
that timing is insane she has Ease In and Ease Out embedded on her LMAO
There was a lot happening there and I missed it but..., I still loved it.
Unbelievable. Supernatural speed and power…beautiful and inspiring to see what the pinnacle humanity can become.
For all the people who are saying that this chick is dancing not fighting or spurting out shit like "martial arts is all about fighting" well KNOCK FUCKING KNOCK PEOPLE!!!! There is a good reason why this is called martial ARTS! There is a big difference between martial arts and fighting. When it comes to fighting people concentrate on winning and therefore the art is not present. Martial arts however is all about EXECUTION. Each movement is necesary and winning and losing are discarded concepts. You concentrate on learning how to coordinate your body and learn it through exesive hardships. What this girl has done was exeptional. Why? Because each movement she did was soooo perfect. Fast movement, excellent timing and beautiful execution was the beauty of this kata. Now, in martial arts that is crutial since you need to flow in the exact movement on an exact pace, which is fucking hard to do. Once you do this, logically you become stronger and stronger because each movement becomes fas
+Rhythm Man i like your answer. Good job indeed sir.
+Rhythm Man Good points. I'm not a huge fan of kata, but I must say that when I was getting up before dawn to practice kata getting ready for a big tournie I was probably in the best shape of my life.
Best answer! I agree! I hate when there are people commenting that this isn't martial art even though this is. Usami was awesome btw! She performed beautifully and elegantly
+Patricia Angel could she knock out a large bodybuilder?
From what I've learn in martial arts speed is everything. Size doesn't mean everything. In judo I had to throw big guys that were 200 pounds heavier than me. I can't answer for her but it's not everyday you fight against a body builder. Body building is a whole different thing like strength and power which is awesome. Use body building and martial arts together then that person would be a beast
I can watch this kata again and again my whole life, and always learn something new from it.
She is magnificent and really very sharp.
God bless her my heart wishes best for her.!!!
Beautiful dance!
The dancing competition looks lethal !
I accidentally dislocated my shoulder while trying this.
Hah noob!
Even the pros do too. That's the point of the exercise.
@@arinur2347 Atleast he tried (probably joking) you are the noob you never even dared to try this.
I'm not practicing kata in speed anymore, I've seen enough signs from god
I accidentally dislocated my shoulder while watching this.
