Welcome to our Youtube site - I'm presenting a variety of video clips featuring various aspects of Koryu Uchinadi, some vintage film footage I've collected over the years, a few demonstrations, some rare historical photos and a little personal stuff, too.

Hope you enjoy your visit here and make the time to drop by my official website located here www.koryu-uchinadi.com
Name: Patrick McCarthy
Originally from Canada but migrated to Japan where I married and spent many years before being recruited to teach in Australia. Been involved in the fighting arts all my life and decided early on, "why not live my dream," and was able to successfully turn my passion into a profession --- have never regretted that decision.

I'm very competitive by nature---a trait reflected in pretty much everything I do. I'm also a work-a-holic and love what I do --- who wouldn't?

I've worked very hard to accomplish what I have and respect anyone who holds the same values.

I'm married to a remarkable woman named Yuriko, and we have two wonderful kids; Bianca [20--- http://myspace.com/sunnyjune] & Taylor [18 --- http://www.myspace.com/taylor_ mccarthy].

I am living my dream...and loving it ;-)

Dear friends,

Thank you for visiting my Youtube site - sorry for the delay in responding. I established this page [and a Facebook page c/o http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=540486245] largely as an extension of my study group [IRKRS c/o www.koryu-uchinadi.com] - and hope that you might also be interested in the kind of work I've done over the past twenty years in an effort to better understand the origins, nature and application practices of Okinawa's fighting arts.

I have had the good furtune to attend your short seminars at our club in Brisbane (SKA Wynnum) over the past year. Although I only began to study martial arts a few years ago, your teachings and classes have made the most sense and made the greatest impact on me to date. The five times I have attended your visits to our club have given me greater understanding than the last 50 standard Shotokan classes.You are a great teacher and a fascinating and entertaining person. Thank you.
