  • Anyone know what this kata is called? I was taught one very similar called "Burning Hands" and I am trying to remember it :(

  • @Jax1108 - in what system were you taught this? And from what art and style is this form? Just curious.

  • stupid

  • seems a bit sloppy but what the heck do i know

  • Hmm, aren't you supposed to end your form at the same place you started? I just know in tournaments they deduct points if your starting and ending positions are different. Anyway, you have good speed here, but you also need to hold your pauses longer at 0:14, 0:19, 0:22, 0:28, 0:35, and 0:49. If you haven't already noticed, your form was less than 1 min, when the guideline for beginners in tournaments is 1:20 (yes, I'm a geek...I read it from the rulebook).

  • nope, thats how the form goes. That rule may be true for wushu performance, but this is a traditional tournament, so im not sure if the rule book is the same. You are dead on with the pauses. The form was under a min, hmm making it longer would have been nicer. funny thing is I got 1st place ,like you , I often times dont feel like I deserve it. Im like that ragedy kid in the back that trains hard all the time, but still cannot have that world-class skill. Iam the successful failure!Thank you

  • I'm just wondering if you have any knowledge of karate. I know jitsu and was wondering which of the 2 (kung fu or karate) I should try out. I have no clue what the difference in fundamental principles are. Thanks in advance.

  • Many schools teach Karate and Jujitsu together. Both arts are japanese. Karate derived from southern White crane kung fu and branched out in a few other styles. Karate is very tense and rigid. They focus on power strikes and muscular power. Kyokushin karate and Shotokan are famous for its full-contact and hard conditioning. Kung fu is an umberalla terms for hundreds of different Chinese martial arts styles. This is a very complicated subject, so I will PM you.

  • i am taking shurin kempo and we learn both kung fu styles and karate styles

    really the only difference that my sensai says, is that in karate, they only changed one position in a kata to make it from "open hand"(kung fu) to empty hand(karate)

    that and they changed the names of the moves and such

    but really, like randys5 said, they are both umbrella terms for hundreds of different styles

    so, your choice, i recomend doing some research on which one you want to learn

  • @FTWpwnCAKES your sensei is wrong. Until the late 1800's/early 1900's, the word "karate" means "china hand", but due to the anti-china climate in japan at that time, a bigtime martial arts master slightly changed the kanji symbol from 'china' to 'empty' while keeping the pronounciation mostly the same( a tweak in the phonetics) so that the art could be called "empty hand", and then he could market it as a new japan-made martial art.

  • @MachinShin0000 hey your right! but i gota question? What in Japanese Karate means "Small Pine Forest"?

  • @11033066099 Sho rin.
