  • in an age where everyone wants to see MMA fighters beat each other senseless, it's nice to see a real traditional martial art.

  • @DavidJosephDanbee Hi Thanks for that! I appreciate your comment. Lots more to see on this channel. Regards Tom

  • is this actually bunkai straight from a kata or have you altered it for self defense?

  • @gojukarate100 Hi This is a selection of self defence moves was done without rehersal one sunday morning while training. Most of the moves can be found in Kata bunkai from Goju. I split Bunkai into three areas: 1 stuff that looks just like the Kata, 2 Stuff modified from the Kata concept. 3. 'Jazz' bunkai that is using a kata principle but in a free form manner. We use Kata a a sort of 'workshop manual' for combat and self defence moves. Hope that answers your question - regards tom.

  • @TOMHILLSVISION  thanks that does help. i recognise some of the bunkai from different kata. but no club has the exact same karate anyway. thanks

  • i love how each lock is just a simple turn of the wrist effortlessly causeing great pain.

  • Excellent bunkai,very few true teachers left that actual understand the true meaning of karate not just repeating katas in sequence

  • Its bad enough to get thrown around but then your dealing iwth the power of a Goju practicioner OUCH he's not even using punches in this video yet when he does its allllll down hill

  • Good stuff this is a true instructor.

  • @ArmyRanger921 Hi Thanks for your interest - much appreciated. Regards tom

  • Some nice stuff in there Tom, not sure about the techniques that involve you going voluntarily to the ground e.g. at 0:21 and 0:37, they look nice in the dojo, but as self-defence applications, I wouldn't want to lie down on a concrete pavement or similar. You don't know what kind of surface you're going to land on. The ground would be for the assailant only. Just my opinion of course.

  • nice grabs

  • mmm kata cual

    it is aikido

  • Impressive bunkai, good application of Kata
