The original Kata of Shotokan Ryu Karate-do Introduction of Junro Katas(1-5)
vimeo.com/ondemand/jks1d
Why so many all Japan selected Karate atheletes have appeared from Shoto Federation? Because they train Kata and Kumite based on their own Junro Kata.
Junro Kata is based on the method how to bring one's maximum power from his whole body. It was created by Tetsuhiko ASAI Shihan, the last legendary master in Karate history.
This DVD introduces the Junro Kata and "complete stepping maps and movement" as a supplement.
Edited and supervised by master Masao KAGAWA 9th Dan of Japan Karate Shoto Association, the director of national team of the public foundation all Japan Karate-do Association and the chairman of the Developping Athletes Committee of the same organization As an athlete he had become the top of Kumite/Kata tournament and later as the superiser he had raised Karate-do club of Teikyo university as a winning team. He also has raised a lot of all Japan selected Karate athletes from his students.

Great training! Thank you for posting! Kagawa is a legend! 🙏☺️
Very good
It likely has to do with the JKA being the first into the universities, the first to be recognized by the Japanese Ministry of Sports and Education (or whatever it was called), the largest organization, and the establishment of a real instructor training program at the Hombu that did produce, between roughly 1970 and 2000, one or two genuinely qualified instructors every year or two. In the early 1980s there were probably eight or nine world class instructors all clustered together at the Hombu, including Asai, Tanaka, Yahara, Kawawada, Osaka, and Kagawa. I know that's a while ago, but no other organization had that kind of depth chart, or that kind of reach within or without Japan.
Oss like they time waits for no one truly the hell training in the 80 was Dynamic then again the evolution is inevitable advance technology and open communication has made karaté of sensai Naka and Andre and Jesse kamp more knowledge on two hand n two feet art of karate more interesting expanding our horizon .every one is hero.Oss to karate ka community one world one destiny.☯️🥋☮️🈂️🈳🌐👋❤️💛💚😅
Typical Shotokan response. You need to look around.
@@munirmukri2872 What are you talking about? Have someone translate you message into readable English please!
Pretty cool techniques of karate. Requires quick response like solving a math problem.
Nice
4:08 really nice Kanku Dai!
As author of the only book on WKF karate and ex-coach of 3 national teams, I can vouch for the deep corruption in karate management at the WKF and National Federation levels. A long time ago I left the politics of style karate (shitoryu since 1965). They all think they are the best.
Lol i just watched a shotkan guy doin kata 2or3rd dan and it comments a dude was like oh i practice shotokan and am brown belt but get my ass handed to me buy muay thai fighter aka kickboxer
@@scherieisho5840 Karate is not a sport my friend. It was developed as a form of self-defense. It can be modified but it is not meant for sport. If someone pulls a knife in a grocery store who do you want to help you, a kickboxer, or someone trained to disarm that attacker? Please think about it
it would be better if we would keep in mind that there are restrictions in the techniques, as a result you will not witness the full effectivity. Fighting isn't always using fist elbow, hands or feet, it also uses grappling either stand up or on ground so in a situation with no rules i'll still bet on karate than anything else
How true Sensei. I once read that 'practising karate and being a karate expert does not necessarily make one a better person'
How true unfortunately Oss
@@scherieisho5840 Why do you bring up the subject of muay thai? What is your point?
The subject of this video is traditional karate. Go find someone else to annoy.
Класс! Спасибо!
Oh how I miss that style of training I wish I was there
Here in vineland nj.usa okinawan goju ryu karate is the most popular.
That Kankudai demo was VERY GOOD!
I've been working on Kunkudai for two years now. This kata segment was inspiring
Can you do it like he does? 🙂
POLITICS- thats why
I like Naka Takuya Sensei's videos on the origins of Karate
*Tatsuya* Naka
You should checked out Jesse Enkamp's two web series on Okinawa and China.
@@barrettokarate Jesse bought into the idea not only that Karate originated in China, but that is now an essentially a watered down version of White Crane Kung Fu. This idea is espoused primarily by the "Bubishi" people who generally ignore the Okinawan and Japanese influences, or at least don't give them much credit at all. His videos are excellent, but the historical context must be taken with a grain of salt.
Im pratice karate in the 80's good times!
Great fundamental training. Suprised to see some of the black belts looking around at others instead of straight forward.
Agreed, I have seen better kyu grade students than these dan grades here!
It may be due to belts given at a time frame and kata. Rather actual skill/strength shown. Ik at my kyokushin dojo, you can be a brown belt for years if you don't have the ability to move forward.
Good trainer trea
Greetings from Ghana, that was a wonderful kata performance.
Everything works so well in the safety of the dojo!
@@spikefunakoshi5667 Sorry, you just miss the point completely. What I am saying is something entirely different, namely, that techniques which are apparently so effective in a safe dojo (not those that you apparently frequent) do not necessarily work on the street in a real situation. That is the myth of modern karate which is designed for the dojo rather than real life.
@@johnnyryan7939 Then go and do boxing.
@@johnnyryan7939 The point of traditional karate is not simply to run out to see if it works in "the street" as so many wanna a be's" call it. It is meant to be a lifestyle of mental preparation for living a life seeking harmony with those around us. It is not a sprint to an imaginary goal of turning into a combat ready soldier but more appropriately a good citizen with a calm and focused mind. The fighting techniques are intended to be a last resort and they take many years to become proficient. I'm now in my 36th year as a sworn police officer and traditional karate formed the base of my training which allowed me to survive many deadly force encounters. I went on to work for many years as a nationally recognized police defensive tactics instructor. Many of those needed skills did not come from Karate. Karate taught me how to learn, how to remain calm and how to recognize what works and what does not in an uncontrolled environment. Almost all traditional martial arts can provide that basic framework as long as the student put in the work over many years.
@@grnhrntskato Thank you for your kind reply. Different people may have different reasons for training karate. Mine is to provide self-defence. In Japan, there are many police, there is little violence. Other parts of the world are not so fortunate. It is a fact that most karate practitioners are unable to defend themselves effectively. Modern karate does not train them for this. It looks great in the dojo, great in the arena, but it does not work effectvely in self-defence. Which is unfortunate, because I believe that the study of kata (directed toward self-defence), provides a highly disciplined and effective training in self-defence. Your mind-set is no doubt admirable, but if karate is not focused on self-defence "in the street", i.e., in the real situation where the assailant does not stick to dojo rules, karate students will end up going to MMA or Bazilian Ju-Jitsu where the necessity for these real-life skills is recognised.
@@johnnyryan7939 You are right in that sense. I am also a long time practitioner of Judo (until covid shut us down anyway) and Arnis de Mano. Judo maintained it's traditional roots until recent years where an overwhelming concern for the safety of the players during competitions has pushed the organizers to prohibit many techniques. Of course Arnis is more concerned with what works in the practical sense however it is not practical to train with a machete or balisong. I don't teach traditional karate anymore as my efforts are focused on being a student of judo and the delivery of police defensive tactics however I firmly believe traditional martial arts training produces some of the best people one will meet. I do not always get that impression from many who join the pop up MMA gyms, slap on a stack of tattoos and enhance their performance with illegal drugs. Their goals are not the same. Best Regards.
Super karate.. sense
We (Shito-ryu) also do this Kata Kankudai - we call it Kosokundai I actually prefer our Shito-ryu Version, however I do wanna learn this Shotokan version too, its very rigid but powerful, may suit me better. The Shito-ryu version is more artistic and smooth. But then again it depends on the practitioner

Bassai dai ,a very difficult kata to do with power and focus!🙏
Does anyone know the name of the karateka at 4:20 doing Kanku Dai? TIA
Found it. That's Koji Arimoto Sensei
Black belt doesn't mean expert or master as many are alluding to, it means you are "supposed" to be good enough to start understanding your training properly. This inaccurate concept has been a sad marketing campaign that dilutes good martial arts training but also gives people something to work towards. It's like a college degree, just because you put in the work and went through it, doesn't mean that person is a straight-A student. Not everyone is doing to be a proper badass even if they come from a good school. Let's all be honest, you need some people who are there because they love it and show good spirit, not just because their technique is A+. I am still frustrated by seeing the improper technique, but good on anyone showing up to train and trying to get better. Also when looking at a more traditional school, you have to keep Karate in your mind as a larger context than just the moves. Similar to yoga, while the physical is a tremendous aspect of your training, that is not all of it. Proper respect for our man at 4:10. Look at his knuckles, straight rocks. Also the belt thing. Some belt fades and run down quicker than other belts. That guy came out of this school.
Yeah agreed.Though as a practitioner i don`t want to look down anyone, many of those karateka don`t really deserve the black belt. And yeah that guy at 4:10 has solid bases.....but as a consolation, it is from Japan. Different mentality and hard training from young age. Also Kagawas karate is really prominent in this guy. It`s to rigid and follows the old application without considering refreshing his karate. It is a big difference how do u give the order for execution. Do u count for the technic or for your breading. If u want to see a different approach to karate , without being biased i recommend to look at Kasuyas or Andre Bertels karate....big difference. PS: most probably this guy would kick the shit out of me.......without being biased :-)
Then there is no reason to withold "black belt" to adult practicioners for 4+ years. Lets be honest, somewhat gifted student could get half decent technique (minus the BS) down in a single year.
You might argue, that belt grade also mean, that the karateka has deeper understanding of the system, yet many dont even understand kata application.

I'm "old school" - 1970's onwards & say this with respect to the individuals = I see a lot of black belts but no Shodan's and no resemblance of a nidan or higher. It is unfortunate.
Zommel Lemmoz it’s fun seeing all these overweight, unfit people struggle with five minutes of drills isn’t it?
I didn’t think striking each other would be an issue... or tossing... in the USMC during training we always start at 70% but we always end up trying to get closer to 100% to see who needs to be paired up with someone else... is it different in this video because the instructor doesn’t really know the students so he doesn’t push them or expect them to really hit each other.. and it’s not really a dojo (the floor isn’t the same as the ones I’ve seen in Japan... ??? I’m just asking...??? You practitioners would know best, I just figured that all being black belts... but it is a full class so no room to actually move...
True..but sad also 'cause somewhere in the back of their minds they think they are capable and dangerous. 😏
@@obrienthebutcher858... issue is the lack of technique and standard = at this level technique should be automatic, the practinioner can adapt to different circumstances, smaller space, surface etc but still generate the same amount of impact = it should not be necessary to think about it and then fumble around. You can clearly see the difference between the black belts and the instructor*s assistant. 70%/100% quite correct...but it is not there becausr they lack some critical skills...which is what keeps your face intact & not the color of the belt 😏 it is essentially the same as being a soldier = married to your rifle, formation movement is there, drills are in sync, you can innovate, switch on/off...all the goodies that keep you alive. If after basic training a dude considers himself to be in the league of special forces he is dillusional. If an officer tells him that he is = it is an evil lie. Be safe in your service bro 👍
I totally agree with you. The form of the students blackbelts was poor. The kata was decent
Kagava sensei Os! Anis Alsafar Im glad to you. Os.
Below the video, it says: Why so many all Japan selected karate athletes have appeared from shoto association? What does this mean? It makes no sense.
Ya I thought they will have a discussion
Might have just been a bad translation on the part of the person who uploaded the video. All their other videos all are in Japanese (titles and description). This title is completely in English and it might have just been phrased badly.
Probably meant disappeared!
Lovely Kanku Dai at 4.10
🥋Kagawa Sensei, OSS!!!🥋
My greatest respect to Master Kagawa´s achivement. But when emphasizin strength directed downward, why didn´the asked his students to hid genan-downaward?
I appreciate his sideways moving in &hiko dachi while attacking with hands and maintaining centre of strength in the lower part of our body -if I understood well!.
Beautiful example of "walking" stance with oi tsuki-first leg moving forward and turning outward, followed by an explosive step forward, ended by an decisive Oi -tsuki.
My 2 sensei trained directly under Hidetaka Nishiyama.
He promoted me to Shodan in 1987. When I was introduced to him that night at the dinner as one of the students he promoted to Shodan, he said "Ah yes, an interested beginner" with a big smile on his face. Of course, he was right.
kagawa's tomoe-nage is pretty good!

Shinji Nagaki's footwork, though... 👀
It’s a very sad thing that all the remaining student of nakayama all forgot what had been taught to them. Over the years, they tried very hard to improve and evolve.. some. On speed, some on damage..
But sadly they had drove away from the original... there were reason what it was taught to them but they forgot the importance why it was in that form.
It’s getting weaker by each every generations.... lol at nishiyama , nakayama, t aso, Kanazawa.. they are true masters...
I m surprised even higher than black belt are practising like as basic white belt.its means knowledge have no limit and basic are very important.
That's all they know how to do.
And people think that black belts are ready to be sensei, it's like an elementary school trying to teach
Some black belts have terrible form indeed!
@AtR that being said it seems that worshipping black belts is more or less a western concept. Back when I was living in Taiwan, I could see kids wearing black belts all over the dojo and they weren't good.
In Japan they say black belt is just the beginning, I feel like it's not the way we view black belts in the west.
I literally spent 10 years getting my shodan in karate when I was younger.

No detail words for training of Karate which makes it difficult to be trained
What is this English? Lmaoo
You don’t need detail words, you just need to pay attention to body mechanics. It might take a couple times, but if you’re moving with purpose( and not just flailing like a dumbass) you will notice the shifting of weight, the footwork, the full extension, the difference in push, pull, or redirection movements, and also the hip rotations within the process of every strike.

some students have great technique while a lot could be sharper, i see they all wear the black belt, at least for me, by the time you reach the black belt your techniques should be very percise and decisive and look as close to perfection as possible, of course while up until shodan you only know so many techniques and katas you can't be perfect and there're still heaps of stuff to learn, the stuff you do know should be honed and sharpened well, at least in my opinion training in a small group of people can help you learn karate better than in this kind of setting.
A lot of middle aged and older karateka there. Should they stop training because they aren’t as sharp as they were at 25?
Somebody please take up a collection and buy the poor guy a new belt
That is a belt of hard work and honor
@@elismith3402 It's a belt with a silk or satin layer sewed on a white cotton base material that is designed to wear out almost immediately. A new belt like this will start to wear out within a month and will look like this in less than five years. The ones that look shredded and stringy? Those have certainly been abused in order to look like that. A heavy duty 100% cotton belt is dyed with color all of the way through the material. It will never look like that belt. Don't think that this somehow represents hard work. It's a shortcut. Do you wear a gi that's stained with yellow sweat and ripped with big ass holes? By this logic, that means years of hard work and honor. Most people will get a new gi when it gets worn out, so why wear a ratty looking belt with a new karate gi?
