  • Was there Bunkai demonstrated? I must have missed it. Seems a poor form of Shotokan to me with lots of reliance on flexibility, nice posture, bluff and bravado. In other words total BS. To be honest I've never heard of WKF Shoto Kan but if Shoto kan waters down anymore it'll be all but useless. To see good Shoto Kan search Miltary Shotokan & see the Japanese security guys in action.

  • @momo34ful ja

  • Tradition ist das A und O, die Lehrerin ist sehr gut muss man ihr absolut lassen, jedoch ist Karate keine Sport Art sondern ein Lebensstyle.

  • ja kung fu fighting... FAIL!

  • I don't speak German, however, I did recognize that the command "muk so" (mook so) is not pronounced mok su and she needs to know that if she teaches others.

  • ... in japanese.

    But her Shotokan is quite fine.

  • Really? What aspect of her technique would you say was really fine?

  • Her Kata - she competes on international level.

    Im not to happy with the bunkai - but its Shotokan.

    She teaches on a semipro level in the German WKF and on WKF level her seminars are quite fine.

  • @IEKUKATAKA - I can't figure out why people have to change the sound of a simple foreign word, especially something as fundamental to karate as mokuso. It's not as if 'mock soe' (phonetic) is all that difficult to pronounce. Make the effort people. I've got an English mate that pronounces Sensei (sen say) as 'sen see'. Why he does it is completely beyond me.

  • @BelloBudo007 Well, I can tell you. First, Japanese has no spelling as it is a language of ideograms. So, pronunciation varies within the culture if slight. Second, the Japanese language is highly inflected and much of the inflexion requires familiarity to hear. Third, musc of karate in the world is inauthentic so the terminology would follow. Fourth, people are generally lazy and apathetic when it comes to pronunciation of other languages. I try to be attentive but even that fails.

  • @IEKUKATAKA - Well done for offering a good excuse. Normally I'd happily agree, as at my advanced age I've adopted the 'who cares' and 'close enough is good enough' philosophy on many things in life, and besides I'm sure I thrust my fair amount of mistakes on other people. However in the case of this girl (a professional karate coach would you believe) and my English friend (a karate teacher himself), I expect them to make a better when it comes to two of the most commonly used karate words.

  • @BelloBudo007 I have heard the term "muk so" pronounced that way, as mok so, as moku so etc. I have been around and toying with the Japanese language for decades and I am still surprised at times that my understanding of a particular term is flawed in terms of pronunciation and definition after years of use. Sometimes embarrassing, sometimes down right funny. In any event, it is not an easy language for the gaijin to get right.

  • @BelloBudo007 BTW, I no longer consider Shotokan to be karate at all. It has been corrupted by the Japanese in many ways including the elimination of most techniques and the transforming of it into a sport rather than a martial art. Read the comments my channel for details.

  • @IEKUKATAKA - Well in my 40 plus years of plugging away at karate I've arrived at the conclusion that perhaps Shoto Kan never actually started with a comprehensive range of techniques in the first place when compared to other schools (Goju Ryu, Goju Kai, Wado, Shito). But to fair my knowledge of other karate systems is limited to an occasional dojo visit. In my short time I have seen kata simplified to the point that I wonder what future generations can possibly make of it all.

  • Die Fernsehleute ziehen doch alles ins lächerliche. Denn die Fernsehleute haben nicht die Absicht sachlich zu informieren sondern wollen nur unterhalten.

  • sehr schön

  • "kata" auch

  • die haben "osu" falsch geschrieben
