SHOTOKAN - The Art of War

http://store.legendtv.co.uk/
Dynamite - Shotokan as it was - hard and fast, and very often brutal. See for yourself in this trailer from Legend Productions. www.legendtv.co.uk Four volume set, professionally produced and containing hundreds of carefully selected clips, digitally enhanced where necessary. You will never see this kind of action again, savage at times; but always inspiring. The final volume draws a sharp distinction between the original JKA - FAJKO - kumite rules, and the current 'sport' rules. Later version also available - 2 DVD 4 volume set - re-edited 2005. The clips you see here are a random series, we didn't simply pick the most exciting bits, no - the entire four volumes are wall to wall pulse racing Shotokan power.

THIS IS NOT KARATE! A warning from a JKA life member: I spent decades training and teaching this activity. Because of many contradictions I saw and heard, I began a study of karate from it’s beginning; what it really is, why it was developed, how it was taught, what it’s general syllabus was. The JKA has eliminated much of original karate and invalidated it as a martial art. They teach a punching, kicking tournament sport, not karate. See comments my channnel, study the facts, it is obvious.

@IEKUKATAKA - Well although there are many who will no doubt disagree with you, I for one, completely agree with you.

@IEKUKATAKA put cc on and listen the white range in the world >:D

@iekukataka YES, THIS IS KARATE. All the punches and kicks in the video above are in all karate styles, not just shotokan. Eventhough the rules in modern shotokan might have evolved you can't simply say shotokan is not karate. You might hate shotokan and consider your own style is the best, but don't promote hatred of shotokan or other styles. Why we should hate each other? Shotokan respects all styles of karate and other martial arts. We are all brothers. Let's respect each other.

@IEKUKATAKA unfortunately, I must agree. Karate was never Japanese. What we have is Japanese kickboxing.

@IEKUKATAKA You're wrong.

@Roca15 If you fight, you fight .. not sleep.

[Jozsef86330]

@Rintozone For example, I am certain that Bruce Lee here fast and acurate and he didn't did Shotokan ... I think you're wrong about this ...

One thing that every martial art aught to teach that Shotokan teaches is a fundamental that will help a person bridge the gap is the constant moving. By doing that you essentially start the process of constant state of awareness if you stand still even for a moment u leave a gap. I.e. shotokans foot work look how they never stand still.

[Roca15]

Wow! Those guys are QUICK!

[pastropmal]

@IEKUKATAKA So it's still a martial art, even if you don't like it.
