  • Fantastic however his stances are not very low

  • he comes to my country next month and im gonna train with him and im only 9 kyu but my sensei want me to jump over 8. kyu oh i cant wait training with him

  • @Andreasrantzau It's not about which belt you are, I know alot of people who are white belt, yet they have 5 years of experience, they just never did exams for their Kyu's. As long as you understand what Karate is about and try hard enough, you're good to go. Even if you're a Yellow belt/9th Kyu (I'm assuming you perform Shotokan)

  • I can't stand when my sensei says nijushiho. For some reason he always says "nishishiho" D:<

  • @Insidiousemoboy1 hehe...you want to be careful about that...my instructor failed nidan the first time (about a million years ago) because he didn't say 'nijushiho' clearly enough :P

  • Hadouken!

  • opps,I mean a great legend and not legent(lol)

  • Osu,Kancho Kanaza is 79 years old now.Truly a great legent.His son Nabuaki Sensei 6th Dan wil carry his good work on.

  • Perhaps I have got a wrong impression. Is this kata by any chance illustrative of where Shotokan gets fairly close in methodology and in spirit to Go-ju?

  • @groveavenue Karate is karate. There are no styles,some masters have always taught katas or training methods differently a little but its a the same.

    When you say go=ju ryu,shito ryu,etc it doesnt mean a different martial art. Ryu means school.

    Its just a different school of thought on karate.

  • Everybody join SKIF! =)

  • a great sensei. i respect him so much. this year he was in my country and could not go and see him. i hope i meet him oine day. Sensei respect . iam from jka but Kanazawa expresses real karate . truly respectful and honorable man

  • I wish to learn this kata also.

    (There is no version of Nijushiho in Matsubayashi-Ryu (As far as my studies of various styles show. I may indeed be wrong.)

  • there's a reason this man is a 10th degree blackbelt. if you think you know the right way to do this kata then man up and post a video showing that.

  • The difference between DOING the kata and FILMING it is that hes doing it very slowly so that people at home who is watching understand hes moves...

  • his kekomi's are like whoa!!!!

  • Probably my favourite kata in all of shotokan.

  • Awesome kata

  • love that kata

  • bin ces bien ce que tu f'ai mais il manque un peux de force et de rapiditer mon fils

  • Cool. Nice and clear. Thanks.

  • The legendary - and brilliant - Sensei Hirokazu Kanazawa.

    The way Shotokan Karate SHOULD be done.

  • Osu!!
