My aging Rhodesian brain is able to follow along. Arigatogozaimasu sensei for the tutorial!!!!!
Haha, you are most welcome! All brains welcome at GRKC 🤣
Thank you sensei, this really helped with my 2nd kyu exam
Glad it helped! Getting within sniffing distance of black belt now 👏👏👏
Many thanks, Sensei. I do not think I could have recalled this kata without this video.
You're very welcome! This is a beautiful Kata in need of much effort to get right. Apparently it was Sensei Miyagi's least favourite Kata 🤔
Another clear and informative video on Sanseru kata. This kata is quite asymmetrical as a substantial part of the kata is executed with the right side of the body ( kansetsu geri; mae geri , empi uchi ; chudan uke. I have seen some schools trying to " balance the kata by extending (thus modifying) the kata and performing kicks with the left leg also. Thank you and Zoe again for all the effort.
Another awesome follow-along, thank you Zoë-sensei and Ché-sensei
I think you will really love this kata when you get to it - it suits your build 💪
Realy perfect explanation! It must be very very formidable to meet and learn in that way. You are obliged to understand at once this difficult Kata. 👍👍🏆
Truly a difficult and amazing kata - it takes many, many years to get even a basic handle on it, and a decade or more to master it, as much as anyone ever masters anything in kata.
As I listened to your explanation about the moroto ko uke I laughed at myself. Seems like the time I spent on nikyo and sankyo exercises I worked on my wrists and tend to be comfortable at awkward angles. At least I will just have to remember upward middle finger, sideways second finger.😂😂😂
Nikyo and Sankyo never go to waste! Loved both of those in my Aikido days!
There will always be arguments between styles over which fingers must touch, but the important thing to remember is that the ko uke does a great job of smashing jaws lol!
I am a Nidan , training Go-ju Ryu karate. - From Centurion in South Africa. The variation from our style is that we do a Yori Tobi Geri (jumping for distance kick) if possible, alternatively we do the double mae geri's like yours.
Hello, Jessica! So nice to hear from a fellow South African karate woman!
So nice to hear about the variations from other dojos :)
If you're ever in Roodepoort, come drop in and say hi!
Just starting to learn this Kata, Many thanks for the very clear instructions
Nice to hear from you again, Fox! Glad you are finding the video helpful :)
Thank you Sensei Che. Very easy to follow. Will use this when I need to learn the new... thank you Sensei Zoë. Nice editing as always.
Always a pleasure, Barbs!

Brilliant teaching. Thank you Sensei.
Any time, Sensei Nicky 🙇🏻♀️
Thank you, great videos. I moved to a province far from my Sensei and I live a remote island. It's been difficult to keep up with my kata. I really appreciate OGKK videos. I hope my next trip home he will be happy with my progress.
I'm sure your Sensei is proud of your efforts 👏👏👏
Thanks, Sensei! This has always been a tough kata for me. You explain it well enough for even a slow guy like myself can follow along and refresh. :-)
Too kind, Sirius - you have it all within, it just needs a little dusting off 💪
PS:Thank you for being the first member to take the third tier - we are immensely grateful, and we hope to make it worth your while 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre, ah... I didn't think I'd be the first one in the hopper, but that's okay. As you can tell, I'm already two weeks behind on catching up with your content. It's been busy here to put it mildly. I'm hoping the memberships can provide some support for the stability of the dojo-and we all can certainly use a little extra stability during these unstable times!
Thank you sensei! This helps a lot!
Yay! Senior shodan is coming soon 🥋
Osu, Thankyou Sensei Che.
You are most welcome! Thank you so much for commenting and watching 🙇🏻♀️
Well done Sensei, thank you
Thank you too!
This is awesome and thank you for sharing. Also I can tell you love karate because like myself, it’s apart of you! 🥋🙇🏻♂️
We love it! And we are so glad that this comes across in our videos. Thank you for this lovely comment :D
Very good Shihan
🙏
Yip I made a mistake, with the stepping towards the end, went forward instead of backwards,
Watch the kata at the end it’s correct in that kata.
Kept it in , shows that even I make mistakes, that I need to train, correct and have to keep working. ( a lesson within a lesson)
If you stop making mistakes, then it's time to stop training 💪
Very nice video. I'd love to discuss the koken thumb position vertical and horizontal some time. Osu.
Hi
Please leave your thoughts on that thumb position
I will try get back to you a bit faster
Che
Ps sorry I’m only getting a chance now to catch up on back log of comments
Sensei, I've seen some videos on this kata performed where the punches after the elbows are low as if punching the groin. Is that just their way of doing it or a different interpretation of the kata?
Is Goju Ryu around the world fragmented in a way that shows very different kata variations?
sorry if I ask too many questions
Hi
That’s very much the case, Every generation of seniors tends to split after the sensei dies, then variations occur. Many are very subtle , they are often based on the Bunkai so it also means a wide variety of Bunkai and ideas.
Some schools are however trying to minimise this by creating standardisation documents and videos,
Sadly many karate ka are not great writers so some schools have many interpretations of what sensei said or did.
Personally I love the variety and depth this has developed into
Che
Arigatoo gosaimashita
Hai, dou itashimaste!
I practice shorin ryu karate many years ago, I question myself if your style close to that , because I’m excited to renew with kata that I completely forgot , the only thing is that I don’t want to practice kata that is to far different from my original, can you answer me please! Thank you so much.
Hello!
There are enough significant differences that if you are grading, then it is best to find videos by someone in Shorin Ryu. But if you are just enjoying Kata for the sake of Kata, then our videos can be of help 🙏🏻
Thank you for your question, and for taking the time to watch and comment 🤗
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre thanks for your answer, very appreciated.
Hi Sensei, do you have a video for the Seiryu KATA?
Hi, Tony!
Unfortunately we don't, as it isn't part of our syllabus and we don't know it well enough to cover it, and a quick search doesn't reveal any practitioners that we can recommend, as it's outside our style. But hopefully someone will cover it one day soon!
👍👍
Obrigado!
Very nice
Che is in constant domestic abuse situation and he tries to cry MAYDAY MAYDAY MAYDAY out but nobody pays attention to his desperate call for help! Although he still shows us with his dog/mantis pose at the end of this kata: look, I'm overworked as a dog despite my chest pain (I may guess he's got a serious blow here with some kitchen utensils!) and you know whom to blame (a hint: a female mantis bites a head of her male mantis partner off). Now you know. Now you must join their membership program or he's doomed! Hurry up! I mean, osu!
Regarding history (and on the more serious note but it was very serious above nonetheless), sanseru is a crane kung-fu Fujian Baihe-quan form (kata) coming from the line (Minghe-quan) of Liu Long Gong (Ryu Ryuko), a.k.a. a teacher of my teacher's teacher's teacher's teacher and also the latter's teacher as well. Think about unshu-gata (unsu in Shotokan that was made from Shito-ryu version in 1945) which is a crane (baihe) in a style of arhat (luohan) and such MMA stuff wasn't uncomon (e.g. Sokon Matsumura as predeccestor of Shorin-ryu making seisan/seishan from the crane's seisan). But how tigers named Heihu-quan from Shandong came into a play in Fujian, is beyond my understanding, even they claim being a part of Shaolin (lol, it's Luohan-quan again). But a variant of crane by Zhou Zihe (or Shu Shiwa), who was born in Hunan but practiced Fujian crane (Hunanians claim it was tiger because Hunan and Heihu, right...), is Uechi-ryu now and their sanseru is quite different.
A dog then? Meh, these Brazilians with their form of judo on the beach... :) So it's a crane. Very agressive and hard (i.e. Go) form that links sanchin with suparimpei through seisan (it's good Chojun Miyagi thought about this and made seipai as Ju for us). But enough of my ramblings, we need to help Che!
Bwahaha, join the memberships or Ché will keep getting overworked like a circus pony by his thug wife 🤣🤣🤣🤣
But levity and jokes aside (I don't have any topics to film right now, hence why I haven't appeared on the channel for a while) - this comment is gold for tying together the historical threads of the kata across continents. I love that it sets up nicely for Suparinpei later - the callbacks across the katas never ceases to delight me.
Thank you for bringing a big laugh to my day - I needed it 😅
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre : kobudo with kitchen utensils and a skillet would be a nice topic, too. ;)
Crouching spatula, hidden pan 🍽
It is England or Ireland?
The accent? South Africa 🇿🇦
Muitos falam que os kata não serve para defender, só porque não o estudou profundamente..Oss
You are absolutely right - too many people only look at the surface, and they don't know their history. Everything you need is in the kata, but it had to be hidden so that only worthy people could use it, and not just any thug.
Thank you for watching!
