  • great demo, thanks!

  • Awesome bunkai exponent. ossu sensei Lupo.

  • thank you for this presentation,veryhelpful and keeps the KISS concept. thanks

  • I very much appreciate your videos. I consider them to be among the best on Youtube teaching real world applications.

  • Great video! Thanks for taking the time.

  • EXELLENT..oss.

  • The JKA changed the cultural soul of karate, omitted many primal elements, ignored its intention, and altered its identity. Shotokan is called a style yet it is not true karate because it is a sport of their deliberate making. An objective person who wishes to discern what history has unfolded will determine the intrinsic nature of original karate and the nature of the JKA and reach this same conclusion; the moral truth is evident.

  • You are a great contribution to the traditional karate. Thank you very much for the bunkai and congratulations. Ossu!

  • ONCE AGAIN, SOME ONE MAKING UP APPLICATIONS TO SUIT THE KATA MOVE HES MISSED THE POINT COMPLETELY

    JUST A MORE ADVANCED CHILDRENS KARATE

  • @JIMMYBUSHIDO once again a big fat and ugly noob trying to undermine karates image.

    stupid cunt

  • Domo arigato

  • I have to be of the same opinion as all those below me : Very WELL MADE VIDEO, VERY LOGICAL APPLICATION RESPONSES, and the video shows that this karateka is demoing from a well trained perspective. This may be the only "bunkai" video Ive seen on YOUTUBE that is actually teaching bunkai !! Great work !

  • great performances, it really brings me to some good ideas for my training. thanks a lot

  • good job... and repeating a comment I made on Nijushiho, there is nothing said as a "must be" on bunkais. Even so, these interpretations shown here are very good. Again, thanks for sharing

    buen trabajo. repito un comentario que hice en Nijushiho, no hay nada dicho de "como debe ser" en los bunkais. Aún así, estas interpretaciones mostradas acá, son muy buenas. Otra vez, gracias por compartir...

  • really well done. I like it a lot and got a lot of inspiration from that... thank you for posting

  • I love this bunkai! It is different than other bunkai because it is not holding to the structure. This makes your bunkai original. I am tired of these "fine looking" katas and bunkais. Very good video!

  • Muy bueno Didier Lupo. Ahora me gusta mucho mas el karate que antes, cuando no se enseñaban este tipo de bunakis. Si el karate se hubiese enseñado asì siempre, mucha gente que antes practicaban karate, no se hubieran cambiado de estilo o abandonado su practica

  • Excellent bunkai !

  • Excellent video!

    My only suggestion would be to control the knife hand better (and then the knife!) in those bunkai.

    Otherwise, one of the best I've seen.

  • At last a well made shotokan bunkai! It's better even than some so said "okinawan karate" bunkais...

    Naihanchi is the best kata for street fighting.

    In short, the rule for good bunkai is: if your kata analysis and practice is giving good results/realism, it's fine.

  • OSS

  • complimenti bel karate

    difficile da trovare in italia a parte tammaccaro

    e in sicilia

    ferrara e di blasi

    un saluto a tutti gli appasionati di karate

    oss

  • un trabajo muy bueno

  • bunkai should match the structure of the kata not stray from it. your kata is done well try sticking to naihanchi structure and use only the moves in the kata for your bunkai.

  • I sense this is more of bunkia to practice the moves in tekki.

    I suppose if this guy is experienced in S/D he will later teach improvisation.

    All in all not bad .

  • excelente

  • Good Thranks :)

  • Amazing, The real Shotokan Karate, Thanks Sensei

  • The first technique leaves the defender getting kicked between the legs.

    The others are ok

  • really good info, my friend, keep up the good work,

    excellent.

  • muito bom!

  • impressive

  • I'm sure there is one form where you can break someones neck with a twist. Aidan Trimble's kata applications are different to these ones.

  • Congratulations, with this bunkai you put Karate again in the self defense field and not only in the sports arena. Your Bunkai proved that, with real training and real knowledge, Karate is a serious martial art.

  • otimo!!!!

  • Excellent bunkai. In real life, don't depend on this technique against a knife attack - you'll get badly cut.

  • You should always assume the other person has a knife, and that you are probably going to get cut in some form or fashion. The important thing is surviving the encounter.

  • Ous. We have a saying in our system (karatejutsu / jujutsu) "Everybody get's hit."

    You're going to get hit, you're going to get cut. The question is how severely and do you have the "nuts" to keep fighting.

  • belo bunkai de tekki shodan oss

  • Good applications but should not be used to defend against oi zuki, which is an attack never seen on the street....but for clarity, I can see why he used it. Not bad at all!

  • These are good bunkai. I am very impressed with the Iain Abernethy bunkai as well, but there's no reason to limit your practice to any one "brand". After all, before you can use any of these techniques, you have to practice the techniques themselves a few zillion times, not just the kata (which are really just databases). There are also some pretty cool bunkai for Tekki and the Heian kata in a Japanese book titled "Hidden Karate" by Gennosuke Higaki.

  • This man has the best idea of BUNKAI I have ever seen. I don't think all of his interpretations are what was meant in the original masters design of all the SHOTOKAN Katas, but he has given much thought to them and I wish I could thanks him directly for the great work on you tube. If you are out there my best regards to you.

  • This is a clear display of technique and controlling the opposition with crisp and clean motions. Those watching this video should be reminded that this performance is meant to show what the individual movement can do so distance is necessary for the proper setup. In the realworld, most of the technique done closeup would be so obscure that as a teaching apparatus this clip would be useless.

  • C'est rare de voir des bunkai (ou kata) aussi réussis ! Merci :)

  • Plausible Bunkai, excellent execution. So sharp and clear. Great job!

  • When I attacked in the street from THAT FAR away by a jodan or cudan zuki, then maybe I will believe this stuff.

    Untill then check out Iain Abernethy.

  • This guys applications resemble Chokki Motobus, who used this form as a complete fighting system which he tested on a regular basis on Okinawa in bar fights.

  • @guitarninja83 What's funny is that Gichin Funakoshi and Choki Motobu knew each other and actually had a sort of rivalry.

  • Yes, I agree with guitarninja83. The bunkai shown here is quite practical and realistic, and as good as Abernethy's material. The style is Shotokan-like meaning wider stances, longer distances and more linear movements - but those things are easily customizable to your own preference and do not take away from the key bunkai principles shown here. I think this is a good video.

  • Check out ko-do ryu and zen shorin do for real bunkai to this great kata.

  • Wow... why do you assume nathan has the only REAL bunkai to this form? There are many people showing more realistic bunkai relating to more diverse ranges of combat that more closely resemble the kata. To continue as such in your beliefs is to disregard the karateka who lived on okinawa and trained this form traditionally. Tode Sakugawa, Bushi Matsumura, Itosu, Motobu, Funakoshi.. etc.. nothing wrong with nathans bunkai, but not the one and only answer.

  • very good applications.

  • Very good applications

  • The performance is GREAT!

    A word of advice:

    We all should train Tekki Shodan 10,000 times to show a real bunkai.

    If we don't want to train that many times then; we should learn Jujitsu, Iaido, Aikido, etc. to show a real bunkai of any karate kata.

    Osu,

  • and who said kata wasnt kumite?

  • Hmm. I think this video proves that kata is as different from kihon and kumite as kumite is from kihon. Kihon is karate perfection of itself. Kumite is karate against karate. Kata is karate against anything and everything.

  • That is an excellent way of thinking of it, I think. Ous.

  • that student did not want to stay up. in some of the slow motions you can see him lunge down momentarly after the tecneaq, or losing stability of the leg that was not kicked. good moves though.

  • If people don't like the sound, all they have to do is turn it off while they watch the video. Some of us prefer the video with sound effects, its a lot more didactical for kids and beginners. Another great kata Didier. Thank you for sharing it with the world.

  • Facinating look at different interpretations of this age old Kata

  • cool stuff, I love seeing traditional kata application. I actually think the sound is an encoding problem rather than an effect; happened to me a lot when I used pinnacle for video editing.

  • Agreed. The sound effects make it sound phoney. If you could kiai like that, you wouldn't need the rest! The technique however, is very sharp. Great visual aid.

  • I never thought the applications could be used in so many ways. I thought that it was only when you were confined against a wall, or in a long hall.

  • brilliant, please get rid of the sound effects. please

  • Bunito mas não aplicavel auoiAHiuahiuAH Enfiu Soco u direto e Down ;)

  • THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU - I am really trying to understand bunkai a lot now and this is gr8 - Thanks :)

  • Looks REAL TO ME, I WILL PRACTICE THAT.

    THANKS

  • Magnificant video!

  • Excellent video!

  • Good bunkai. Thanks.

  • Wonderful.  Thank you.

  • Very sharp, very clear demonstration!

    Only the stupid sound effects are annoying...
