You're an awesome instructor

WONDERFUL....
I am rethinking my practice trying to incorporate the hips, relaxation and proper technique....
Thank you Sensei.
Deep bow from Australia.
Few karatekas learn the correct mechanics of shuto uke! Using the fist spin to add kime to the end of the move is quite complex.
2:35 student here, try to remember to keep your shuto (blocking/hitting) hand wrist straight, now its almost like 45 angeled extension. From your elbow to the tip of your fingers should be one straight stiff line (at the moment of kime). Keeping your wrist straight is much more effective block and saves your wrist from braking.
Thanks for the comment! I think it depends on where you use to strike. If you're using the bone at the bottom of your hand, the wrist will be bent a bit, if it's the soft side of your hand, then it's rather straight. I hope you can give it a try!
@@KarateDojowaKu When doing some kata with shuto uke kokutsu dachi (which I think this lesson for the student is about but not in kokutsu dachi since he maybe better study the hand cordination first before adding kokutsu dachi (feet work) which is maybe the hardest stance to master in Shotokan) the blocking hand wrist is always straight. In competition you sure will lose points if they see your wrist bended, its a big mistake. Thats my opinion and I doubt there is any sensei that teaches to bend wrist in shuto uke.
Im not sure if we are talking about the same thing here.
How this guys blocking hand wrists is positioned is simply wrong, and he repeats it..If its a structural issue then its fine but if its not then he needs to learn to do it right, that is if he want to evolve as a karateka.
Yes, in some karate strikes ex strike with your side palm from the side to the neck or head your wrist is absolutely in extension, and your finger flexed to make your hand stronger package to the target.
Thanks so much to you and your student for sharing!
Everything is so detailed my sensei said to me good job thank you
That elbow tip changed everything to me, thanks!
Thank you teachers beautiful ❤😊
The student eager to show that he has great exercise plates in his repertoire 😁
Nice
I would like you to do a video on the differences of the Shotokan of today versus the past. I know that in Karate Do Kyohan it mentions that the side snap kick was snapped down towards the lower legs and not upward as it's taught now. Funakoshi used to actually teach in the katas originally a front kick version that is still shown in Okinawa and also taught in Tang Soo Do (but not in there Pyong kata). The shuto uke used to be taught with both hands reaching back and then to their ending position. Your visits to Okinawa I'm sure has opened your eyes up to many new thoughts.
Sounds like an interesting suggestion. I also recall Soto Ude Uke being taught with both arms swinging from the same side, and I've seen that Kyokushinkai still use this method.
Past as in around which time?
@@KarateDojowaKu I believe it was around the 1930s or maybe the 40s. Gichin mainly taught the Okinawan style of karate. Gigo Funakoshi made a lot of changes to Shotokan. Masatoshi Nakayama brought back some Kung Fu techniques from his studies in China that was added. It has been said that some of Gichin's students that came back from the war (WW2) didn't like the changes that were made. Osaawa Sensei mentioned in an interview about the shuto uke being changed. There has also been mentioned of the front kick being changed to a side kick. Some have said that Gichin had once taught the Cat stance instead of the back stance but I have never seen any images of that. If you can check out Gichin Funakoshi's books Karate Jutsu or To Te Jutsu. There is a publishing company that also did another version of Karate Do Kyohan with old pictures and new translation. Karate in Okinawa was taught as a close in fighting art and if you take the bunkai from the katas and practice in that manner then alot of the techniques start to make sense as a self defense method. You do have to consider that what is taught as blocking was often used as strikes and kicks that are taught to aim for higher levels now were once taught as low level kicks which were better for practical street self defense.
Hello from algeria and OSS
I was taught that one reaches for the opposite ear and then strike or receive the attack.
It would be really useful to see how this block can actually be used practically. I've never really understood how it works as a block. Seems more like s strike. Can you do a video on the bunkai?
Check out Didier Lupo and Iain Abernethy videos for some good bunkai applications.
You can figure this out for yourself. Have somebody throw a hook or haymaker at your head, just stick up your hand, voila, shuto uke. Just be aware that you cannot execute the parry by bringing your blocking hand to your ear and then sending it out. That isn't practical and doesn't work because it is too slow to parry anything. Rather your parrying hand starts from wherever it happens to be when you perceive the attack.
@@haffoc Good explanation. Everything is taught in what I refer to as strict traditional "kata" form. And you have to learn it. But the first time you spare in the gym you start questioning kata form. That has to be explained. There's kata form. And there's not kata form. Sparing for example is not strict kata form. It can get confusing.
I will keep that in mind!
@@popcornzbd So true. Kata form is not the practical form, but people don't start to realize this until they start sparring.

Nagano Sensei - Great video! I have a question - does the elbow 'moving to position first' apply to any other blocks? (e.g. Gedan Barai?)
Brother What is the importance of karate kata? Can you explain a little?
This video is amazing i just started karate and could you make a video tips and tricks and karate skills Please ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Check out my other videos :)
@@KarateDojowaKu Thank you so much ❤❤
I never understood the usage difference between Shuto Uke and Uchi Uke and when to use one more than the other
I always wonder where Stoke or Shtoke comes from... is it just a shortening from Shuto Ike >> Sh...to Uke >> Shto-Ke?
The "u" sound in "shu" is often diminished in spoken Japanese making it sound like "sh" only. The "u" sound after an "o" sound is difficult to hear but it is there, believe it or not. Case in point, the word "Tokyo" (the city) is properly "Toukyou" (4 syllables).
Its a block and a strike.
Exactly!
Looks like sensei's knifehand block slowly lost hip rotation.
Could you tell me what you mean?.
Has anyone ever saw somebody really use a shuto uke in real kumite/sparring situation?????
