  • Just as a point,...

    Do not worry on using so much speed...

  • @brasshandmartialarts : Dear friend, when you progress in age, what will leave you first is the speed. You can keep good muscular strenght, good power in your move, but you will lost speed, because it needs much more neurologic connections. So, after a certain age, we must work to improve or maintain the speed of our moves, more than its strength or power. Thanks for thinking of giving me your advice.

  • @nghoaivan2

    Yes...but your abusing the speed. I was planning on leaving what I said alone...and letting it rest. But because you want to keep this 'set' speed...the form looks bad. Higaonna Sensei is progressing in age but his technique is still swift as it is elegant and graceful in eye sight. Look at Tomoyose Sensei of Uechi Ryu. He is also progressed in age but his form is beautiful. Karate is for everyone, young and old. Forgive me if I offend, but I believe you misunderstood my prior word

  • Thanks for your answer. I am interested but don't mind to imitate the way how practised others persons. Besides, "beautiful" and "elegance" are not major criterions in Martial Ars (unlike efficiency). Anyway, each one has his own feelings, knowledges, interpretations, and, for me, it changes. May be I will tomorrow perform this kata like what you are kindly suggesting me. That's liberty ! :-)

  • PS (to BrasshandMA) : But I think this kata is resolutely the past for me. I am practising the 5 katas newly designed by D. Valera (Full Contact Karate), Pa Pu Ren (given this summer by Tsukada Sensei), and Pa Pu Lian Huan Chuan of Taichi Mei Hua Tang Lang school ...

  • @nghoaivan2

    Osu! This is indeed liberty...but also remember martial arts today is not what it was once used for back then. Elegance and grace add more of a challenge to the practitioner developing one's mind and body in a unification. Whether you do this or not...matters not to me..but it is out of giri to my teacher I pass this on, whether or not one listens or chooses to do so.

    Osu!

  • @brasshandmartialarts : In all case, I must insist, as a MD, that actuel neuro science knowledges encourage elders to develop coordination in rapid (and quite automatic) motions (wich need relaxation), in addition to develpping their muscle mass. These parameters decline drastically with age. May God help them ... :-)

  • @nghoaivan2

    Ju nin no toiro....

  • El ritmo de la kata es un poco burdo, pero esta si es la kata enseñada por Sensei Mabuni. Bien. =)
