  • well i train goju ryu karate and i have never done such silly things :D 

  • Somebody please tell me this is joke or something; I really hope those people aren't paying that clown to have them stomp around like palsied morons.

  • so u just have the choice to where either a white or black gi, whichever u want?

    not like other karate, where u have to be a certain belt?

  • What the hell is this?

  • not okinawan goju thats for sure, looks like a decendent of USA goju..... their basics arent in anyway related to goju basics, there is no goju kata being practiced, what makes it so goju? a name,,, ha!! package poop and call it goju and someone will buy it and it will therefore be known as poop when in reality, it was just poop and has nothing to do with goju.

  • One. Two. One. Two. One. Two. This is not Goju Ryu. Look like poo.

  • This makes me ashamed that I do karate. What the fuck are they doing, don't they realise this instructor is having a huge laugh at their expense?

  • crushing flour with foot training

  • thats that crazy spanish guy

  • This IS NOT Goju Ryu...

    Lol, looks like a whole bunch of confused moves to me...

  • really shit

  • Kiai, super Karate

  • Hmmm I see that you just like to go around talking shit about Karate...but if that floats your boat...its best to do it...afterall this is only youtube...anyways. Are you a true practitioner of Karate?

  • Stop being so sensitive, this video is bullshit. It is not Goju, you should be mad at this video yourself.

  • They are practicioners of their style...why should I be mad at them...we are the ones gossiping on the internet not them...We should be mad at ourselves not them...im a practitioner of the martial arts...are you?

  • They are practicing a style from a man who most likely didn't stick to any style for too long. Their instructor is definately athletic, I saw some of his videos. Like I said this is not Goju. I practiced Goju and Tae Kwon Do for 31/2 years, I still train some with my old goju sensei.

  • Truth be known, Calasanz/Shadowind quit the practice of goju at a green belt level, when he figured he didn't need to learn any more. He still falsely claims to have a black belt in goju. Too bad his ego exceeds his learning capacity. This is not goju, it is calasanz bullshitziu.

  • Lets get a few things straight before we go on any further. When you speak to Shadowind, you are speaking to a variety of staff members who work for Calasanz.

  • He is too busy teaching and running a successful school. As far as your assessment of his credentials, you are extremely incorrect regarding his rank. If he were such a bullshitziu practitioner as you so disrespectfully call him, his teacher, Tameyoshi Sakamoto, father of Goju Ryu in the Dominican Republic, would have turned his back on him a long time ago.

  • does not look like goju

  • do agree with yr comments: nothing tradional here..

  • Careful!! "this man claims that Morio Higaonna was a direct disciple of his teachings" after beating him in a match for respect!!! Go figure

  • This is not traditional and it is definitely NOT Goju Ryu. The color of the Gi has nothing to do with tradition either. Hokama Sensei wears a black gi and he is an Okinawan Bushi - as traditional as they come.

  • what form is this????

  • traditionl????? in sneakers and blck gi's??? hardly...i do traditional goju-ryu...if hanshi caught me in a black gi I WOULD BE DEAD!!!! none the less training in sneakers....

  • Traditional Goju Training? In Sneakers?

  • american krotty

  • not goju-ryu, not traditional anything...maybe van clief's version or a form of his 'chinese goju'

  • This is a highly untraditional dojo and untraditional workout. Traditional Gojuo Ryu practitioners do NOT wear black Gis. Peter Urban instituted black gis into his form of corrupted GoJu as a rebellion (and ultimately sign of disrespect) against his master.

  • Corrupted.. LOL!

  • This isnt traditional Goju. Its a form of it. And traditional Goju practitioners DO wear black gi's. I have been training with Goju for two years now and I have worn nothing but a black gi.

  • That is correct sir, just listen to your teacher, if he wants a black gi use it. My teacher did that too, today Calasanz wear any source of gi, but understand Calasanz went beyong just Goju Ryu

  • Obviously this guy has had very little REAL training in Goju.

  • I have been doing goju-riyu for 10 years now and have always worn a white gi

  • @Latinabuffy1217 Actually, white gi's were much more traditional. As karate went into the modern world, various aspects of it were changed (an example is the coloured belt system). Although wearing a black gi is not incorrect, the white gi is tradtional and was worn by the fathers/founders of karate.

    Various clubs/dojos also have their own systems in regards to traning syllabus and uniform.

    Hope your training is going well!

  • @KrumpIsMyEscape888 No argument there I know for a fact that white gi's are in fact traditional. However, for the system that I train under, World Goju/Urban goju, there have always been black gi's. I will eventually enjoy the privilege of wearing two toned (white and black) if and when I promote/earn my black belt.

    Thanks very much and I hope yours is as well if you are in fact training!

  • Bwhahahaha!! Calasanz, you're a comedian!! Too bad they don't give out noble prize for conning people believing it is goju-ryu. BTW, you're a SHITBAG!

  • Sir, we love when people just like you give Calasanz that source of credit, but continue watching Calasanz, it is good for you. Don't forget, the Calasanz system is a unique tradional system with the Calasanz own and personal approach. Read about him. Sir thanks again.

  • Probably fucken americans... americans = wankers!

  • Traditional LMAO.

    Yes of course those are traditonal sneakers they are wearing not to mention the rest of the uniform / costumes.

    And isnt that little kid black belt just the cutest thing.

    You have no right to use the owrd traditional.

  • lol I thought the same thing -- traditional? with Sneakers?

  • this is NOT Goju Ryu!

  • no one in goju ryu would wear shoes or a black gi

  • Goju-ryu??

    That is Sumo!

    U see this is why thr r so many schools and styles today.

    Thr's only few styles back in those days.

    Aikigoshindo,jukempo,shin-kyuk­ushin.......

    wat da hell is that?

  • Thats a five dollar black belt school if I've ever seen one.

  • You want Traditional Goju ryu? Go train with Morio Higaonna Shihan. Look him up on Wikipedia or watch the Karate episode of Human Weapon or BBC's Way of the Warrior (Karate episode). My sensei's John Whitby (5th dan) Steve Riley (4th dan) and Ross Harrison (4th) have trained with him many times.

    Calasanz Goju Ryu is not ture Goju Ryu it is complete and utter rubbish. I'm sorry for bashing but this is the plain and simple truth.

  • I agree with "fastafiesta" & "OrionSantos"

    THIS ISNT TRADITIONAL GOJU-RYU

    and it thi is all "GO" & no "JU"

  • I have my doubts on this "Goju Ryu traditional Workout"

    Is this the way to train (funnily)?

    Goju-ryu is about 'hard-and-soft' is'nt it? Why do i see only the 'hard' side? and is its full of stamping of leg. in practical, stamping helps?

    After seeing the video, a image came into my mind, the movie 'Bring It On'. The guy who teaches "Spirited Fingers".

  • This is not Goju-ryu!!!!

    This guy is fake!

  • I couldn't recognize the kata. Been doing Goju for a while now. I saw the instructor in some other vids though. I am sure he's more into other martial arts than he is into Goju. He's a very talented athlete and I'm impressed with those vids. But it was painful to watch his students flounder through that bizarre spastic workout.

  • ok if this is a hoax, youve got me..

    but for anyone who doesnt know, finding this from a search of 'traditional goju', this is not traditional gojuryo karate..

    at best, its beginners dressed in kobudo gi's

    wearing shoes, trying to do someones idea of

    karate movements..

    unfortunately, some of these people think they are doing 'traditional goju' karate..

  • This is one of the worst training video's I have ever seen. And I have seen alot on Youtube. This is so NOT Goju. Please don't insult us with this Shit!! However I did enjoy his Afro!!

  • This is not Goju ryu.flag this video to be taken out... It does not show what is real traditional karate training.

  • OK, gotcha! The exercises here are nothing special and non-specific to Goju-Ryu but the hair-style and the sound-effects are definately not Goju-Ryu.Hahaha!

  • and, what, pray tell, IS the proper training for this training????

  • Kakie(like taichi push hands), nigirigame (finger-grip conditioning), makiwara, ishi-sashi which you throw in the air and grab again. Most of the "traditional" Goju-ryu basics the distinguishes it from other styles relate to finger / wrist / forearm strengthening.

  • Hi Pecherin, was referring to the exercises indicated here. I am aware of the traditional training exercises and tools. I just do not see how THIS relates to traditional Goju Ryu.

  • Gotta agree with Goju108 and riesbuck42.

  • You must indeed be 1.Blind or 2.Dumb if you don't already realise something is seriously wrong about the stuff you posted??? Kickboxing? Yes! Effective? Maybe? Karate?Yes-why not?Calasanz Goju-ryu?By all means! Okinawan traditional karate??No Fucking Way.

  • tsk tsk, if you don't give a fuck, why are you replying at all??? Dumbass, instead of trying desperately to fend off criticisms: 1.Go to Search in Youtube.2. Type Goju-ryu Okinawa. 3.Look at how real 9th Dan Masters do it and Learn 4.Stop posting shit

  • As for me, I won't even call myself a martial-artist-just a regular guy who goes to the dojo and learns stuff, nothing fancy-know what I mean? But YOU - you are the Martial-Artist who KNOWS how "martial-artists" should behave, hell,that's gotta be some knowdlege there!!

  • Ah, risebuck...I don't define martial artists...they define themselves - As for you, you've you defined yourself as a humble "regular guy" martial artist of sorts. But if that were true, your ego would never compel you to comment on You Tube videos. You see risebuck, you and I are the same, you read these comments and want to fuck your 2 cents on the world like everyone else. So take your holier than thou regular guy horseshit and tell it to someone who gives a fuck.

  • Shadowind31, you are obsessed with the defining what a martial artist should or shouldn't be - shouldn't talk too much, shouldn't criticise others etc, should reply with our own videos or shut-up.

  • Good dance routine, good exercise but not Goju-ryu!

  • Dude, you are delusional if you think you are important enough for me to fly out to the states for. But that's obvious otherwise you wouldn't be posting that crap there. Read the reviews man!!! Tell you what, come to the next Chojun Miyagi festival, and I will personally teach you and Calasanz Goju-ryu.

  • For reference of those who are not familiar, please see Morio Higaonna kata video part 2, after the 3:30 minute part he does chisi(stone hammer exercise) to condition the wrist and finger grip. And yes Goju-ru is 90% open hand techniques, not punches, watch the kata. Don't fall for the con and think any guy who can punch is teaching karate.

  • I have nothing to hide bro...I took Goju forms from Calasanz...I never said I was Traditional...I'm not - Calasanz is though and I'm sure he would be more then happy to correct your karate, I'm sure it needs much work. People who are skilled at something talk very little. You are nothing but an internet tough guy with 3000 miles of cushion between us. Stop by anytime your in the states.

  • Dude, your video title says traditional Goju-ryu work out - which aspect of it is Goju-ryu? & Now you are saying its a mix of Goju-ryu and other stuff - so its not so traditional afterall then? If you think Goju-ryu is about kicking and punching then you are seriously mistaken. The elements of Goju-ryu that distinguishes it from other karate is exactly what you aren't teaching in your system. Call it some other karate because calling it Goju-ryu makes you a sleek con-artist.

  • Don't need to. YOU ARE A CON if you are calling it Goju-ryu.Call it something else and I won't be bothered. Too bad I am on a different continent and too far away, the least I can do is say to all that you are not teaching Goju-ryu karate.

  • Indeed I shall post clips, but it isn't about me proving anything, it is about your "style" and as viewers can all see, I'm not the only skeptic out there, and there are videos enough of Okinawan Goju-ryu karate to expose your con-job.

  • It's not a con-job guy - Goju has great elements to it, but its not enough by itself - Calasanz core back ground is Goju...he teaches his students the parts of Goju that they need, the rest is filled in by other martial arts that he has studied. The Calasanz System is a well balanced mixed martial art, it has elements of Goju in it. If you think we are a con job - it's time to shut your mouth and take action - Come investigate us.

  • For the record, traditional Goju-ryu workout is with Chisi, makiwara and Kakie etc. This guy is not only an idiot, he is a con-artist of the worst and lowest type.

  • Someone should beat the shit outta this guy for the shit he is spewing. It is not even karate, and I am not even sure it qualifies as a martial art.

  • It's been tried before tough guy...and you certainly are not proving you know anything by talking and or even posting any of your own videos...or do you do some kind of top secret death touch karate?

  • first you say to post our own videos to show you up and now you're saying posting videos wont prove anything. you guys are dicks. you guys gave me a great idea though. i should paint a clown on my ass and teach martial arts with it.

  • Where did I say that? But anyway, your a funny guy kakorroto, I like you, you've got a sense of humor...but in the 6 or 7 of our videos you obsessivly commented on today, you've said nothing intelligent about martial arts.

  • last a saw, none of shit you guys put out had anything to do with martial arts either. you got some dickhead grunting to his own shitty guitar playing on a crappy highlight video. you guys are weiners.

  • um wow ok karate is gay

  • oh my, pathetic!

  • And just a question are you certified, or (and) recognized by any specific Okinawan Goju Lineage? and if so who? cause I'll tell you know, that man is just interested in Money for sure.

  • Well this pretty much describes the perfect Mcdojo for sure!

  • Really sad.

  • Buahahahhahahaaaaaaaa

  • This is NOT GoJu-Ryu! I feel sorry for the students who don't know any better.

  • Poor balance, training in sneakers, loose fists, poor chambers. It's a damn shame. This is why karate has earned a bad rep and other styles have come to the forefront. I'd be more than happy to spar their instructor

  • Somebody should beats the shit out of this so called goju ryu sensei..Best is when some real Goju Ryu student does it. That is real crap what he is teaching

  • this is some bullshit nonsense. sad thing is that this guy is probably making some serious cash off of this. i feel bad for his students because they may be dedicated but they are being swindled and learning circus tricks.

  • Not Goju.

  • Speechless. Makes me want to give up trying to teach traditional Goju-Ryu. So very sad.

  • Dear lord I hope his students see this and use the power of the internet to do some research on real Goju Ryu, and  it's associations (JKF, seiwakai etc )

  • This isn't goju either.
