  • I just finished reading Sensei Funakoshi's book Karate-Do, My Way of Life. I wanted to know about the style of walking he called Suriashi. I looked up the meaning and found these videos. I train Tang Soo Do & know many of these same forms. Although there are slight variations in some movements & the names I know are in Korean-I am honored & humbled to view this a martial artist.

  • Amazing Sensei Shotokan Legend Shorin-ryu and Shorei-ryu

  • This is really awesome man! It's great that we see the work of an extraordinary martial arts legend to be filmed and later shown to the rest of the world. Thanks!
