effort was there.. however although my own version had many flaws and ill accept them and try to coorrect them,, i hope you can alter your stances.. they nned to be deeper and lower.. also give the kata some 'hara'
It's little wonder gkr is put down by serious students. In one video they are doing Goju katas (very badly) and in other videos they are doing Shotokan and Shito Ryu (very badly)
this is pure shit pathetic hip movements n far 2 lazy preperation 4 ALL techniques, u really need 2 go back 2 the drawing board on this 1, u probs only got gold cause u were the only one on the ring!!!!!!
Give him a break RockMance it's hardly olympic gold,just a tacky little GKR competition where 8th kyu's in black and white belts give out medals for any old shit.
a good strong kata, however stances aren't low enough.. also, u need to relax a bit more while doing certain moves, as u look very stiff which makes the kata look odd at times.. generally, good. keep it up..!
i used 2 do gkr for about 3 years. looking back it helped me and made me more confident. i got up to blue belt. the sensai was really good. as far as i'm concerned i got really far. the stats show that out of every 33 people who join gkr only 1 gets a black belt
@ezakimakkamikaze um it dosn't really matter at all? hello im a yellow belt in gkr karate and i learnt saifa when i was white belt with a yellow tip & then i learnt bassa dai when i was a yellow belt ;] & i do no them, both self taught as well so beat that ehh .... there is nothing wrong with leraning as many katas or whatever i no the 1st four kata's & im a yellow belt....
well it kata is suppose to look soft/powerful and gracefull,sorry you well too stiff in movements,and ur stances were wrong too,i suggest u get better instructor,coz if u wanna be good at it it be best to do that,but well done any way.
basai dai is probably my fav kata. i got up to blue belt after 3 and a bit years but i had so much going on i gave it up unfortunately, but gkr helped me a lot as a paerson. i'll never forget those times and how much sumo stance hurt
few minor mistakes i saw ...well not that minor they are types of mistakes that could have costed you that gold um ok where to start..
1)on the 11th~13th count your inside shuto the hand was to prepare at the ear not the shoulder and towards the end you were in shiko dachi when the stance was suppose to be in kokutsu dachi and yes i know what im talking about im a sensei for mt roskill new zealand but all and all fantastic work glad all your hard training has paid off for u
Um 7gunblade18 i think you are referring to the go ju basai dai. GKR's does have the hands clasped in fron of the face at the beginning. I look at all styles and i have seen what you are saying in other styles. cheers
what a pathetic black belt you must be to show such disrespect. One msut take into account the persons grade etc etc. So what style do you do?? Obvioulsy humility and respect are not part of you style
effort was there.. however although my own version had many flaws and ill accept them and try to coorrect them,, i hope you can alter your stances.. they nned to be deeper and lower.. also give the kata some 'hara'
good luck

Why is he doing bassai dai when he is an orange belt? Isn't bassai dai for brown belts? Or does his style not care which kata is done.

Don't worry about all these wankers boosting their own egos by criticizing your Kata.
As a green belt, I have found your video extremely useful in teaching myself Bassai-Dai.
I have a long way to go to perfect it, but you have given me a good start.
Thankyou

The guy saying GKR are s##t should give more depth to his response. eg. WHY.
