Champion Eyes Yamashita Shorin Ryu Karate * Progressive Bo Kata Skylar

[OkinawanTemple]

This young man performed 2 separate Bo Katas in one performance. Why?

Hi I am a Sensei: Just wanted to say this is very hard work put into these kids. They are training true martial arts... not that flashy gymnast stuff you see so much now. I bow to their Sensei for such a good job! Oss!

That's great for his age! I study Shorin-ryu (Reihokan) out here in Okinawa. What is the name of the dojou out in Oceanside?

[sdgrasz]

@shftyswtchblade2 The name of our dojo is Champion Eyes

It's amazing to watch his progress. Children should learn self defense. This is giving him self confidence, discipline, concentration, and a belief in himself. This will carry over to academic subjects also.

they say the students are a reflection of the teacher. this a prime example. truly hope he is continuing to stick to it! osu!!

[MenachemUltimater]

wow just wow... *thumbs up*

[KunibaKaiPensacola]

Very nice...I know shodans that have trouble with a Bo kata very similar called Matsu Higa No Kon...so I am very happy to see young kids interested in Kobudo...more traditional Kobudo that is, and Shorin Ryu keeps Kobudo pretty traditional from what I know of!

very nice

Very good progression with handling the bo. He's definitely shown a lot of improvement. I do Shorin Ryu Karate as well, but that looks like Bo Shodan and Bo Nidan put together for one Kata.

Better basic stances and form then I've seen in the fast fancy dances other more mature competitors have offered.

Good for Skylar to keep training, and working towards improvement. You can see the progress.

Keep up the good work.

what belt is this kid, green or black i couldnt see properly

[championeyes]

This video shows his progress in several belt stages. He is currently a blue belt. Thanks for your comment.

[OnlySinner]

he does very well for a little guy, for an adult even. You are not far from Sensei Yamashita to help you if you need him. Skylar's instructors must be so proud.

[YamashitaBudo]

That is incredibly.Lovely! I have not been seeing such work with children

Bow for the teacher. You are from where.

[championeyes]

Our school is in Oceanside California. Thanks for the kind words.
