  • was he doing . SANCHIN kata?

  • I used to train in Goju-ryu many moons ago and when I was a brown belt I trained with Higaonna sensei when he came to the UK. It was an experience I will never forget.

  • This is great. Its glad to see that man is alive and fully healthy today. God bless em.

  • I'm a practitioner of Goju-ryu here in Mexico and I'm currently 8th Kyu. My goal is to become a 10th Dan like Sensei Higaonna and I'm sure someday I'll achieve my goal. Sensei Higaonna is an example to be followed.

  • @monsterhunter891 It is quite a goal to reach. I admire your spirit. Keep in mind though, from 6th dan and above it is all politics. Meaning, you have to prove yourself and move up the ladder. Higaonna sensei was a 7th dan in his early 30's which is very rare. It just goes to show how much karate is a part of his life. If you hope to be a 10th dan, whatever organization you are a part of will expect the same of you. Not to mention that it can get very competitive.

  • @monsterhunter891 Continue to train hard, focus. keep that goal in sight. If you are that serious about it you may very well be there someday. I wish you luck

  • @monsterhunter891 i would wish you good luck on that quest. Im a kempo practictioner, but Goju Ryu is next on my list!

  • GekiSai Dai Ich 5:48 GekiSai Dai Ni 7:40 amazing power, I have just started GoJu Ryu Karate this year, in August, My Sensei has told me a lot about Morio Higaonna, I am 24years old and from Oamaru New Zealand, have my 1st grading is very soon and this video has really helped, although I am not sure of what he is saying, what he does is a fine example of how this should be done. Very Impressive. =-)

  • GekiSai Dai Ich 5:48 GekiSai Dai Ni 7:40

  • What an incredible display. I've never seen such power generation in a Karate kata before.

  • Those hands have large callouses on them- imagine getting hit by that- I think unless you have iron shirt you will be spitting up blood.

  • @computermaster lol i dont think the iron shirt will help much...

  • I like the way the camera shakes when they stomp

  • @teddywinroth this is why there is Tsunami, because Morio Higaonna is fighting or practicing.  The who world shakes

  • The camera shaking during the very first demonstration makes it look so epic!

  • Wow, those knuckles are insane!

  • great video! shows that POWER is made from the ground. thank you for uploading it to us. .. bow .. also the conditioning of sensei's hands is extreme . = Ichigeki

  • can someone tell me the type of wood the dojo's deck is made from

  • AWESOME shows hard blocks and that power is truly made from the ground. is hand condition level looks extreme. BIG OUCH bow thank you very much for the upload!

  • In my youth I learned Goju Ryu for 6 years in Mumbai (then Bombay) ---- under Sensei Parvez Mistry. I had the honour to see Higaonna San in mid 80's. Sensei Parvez was a god. Higaonna was God.

  • Living legend! Ossu!!

    

  • English Translation please?

  • Very nice!!! :-) Who's the other teacher shown in the videos?

  • @jonathanbluestein

    Sensei Terauchi
