This is not training. The student passed his black belt exam. It was to show the audience that were present that the young man has build his body to withstand blows from a kendo stick. You have to be a life long student and teacher to understand. If you study Karate or any martial arts at that matter just for personal protection and/or fitness, you'll never understand!!
This is shameful!!! The LACK of wisdom in some of these skilled Sensei's is heart wrenching. This man does a lot for his community, BUT; THIS form of training is useless.
very disrespectful these guys. O'Sensei is one of the best masters of martial arts in the western hemisphere> One of many. i tell you what. find out where he is and challenge one of his students. You will bear witness that he is authentic after that.
@kyobukan thats exactly what it looked like to me...like a slave owner beating his slave....what was this demo to prove? where is the Martial Arts aspect? oh thats right! there wasn't one!
