kancho shokei matsui
Sushiho kata
it is truly mesmerizing although some people gave negative comments about it , because they want it to look tense , for those people , you should know before you comment that this is the man who puts the outlines of a good kata performance.

  • Fun video. I like how you can hear everything -- his footwork, the snap of his gi. Seems like he holds his breath a lot; is that so?

    People don't realize it's harder to do something with precision and technique than it is to do something fast. This was really good.

  • @2TonTongue

    I see we share two interests .

    well i dont think he holds his breath , its just an expression i guess .

    and whatever he does I'll take to be the right thing to do , you should see his him in kumite , firs video in the related videos.

  • @ahmednabil actually he is holding his breath but only for the execution of the techniques..many great masters believe that you can generate more power by retaining the breath in the tandem when executing a technique. the exhale comes after. its like holding your breath to lift something heavy..more power!! breathing through the teeth or exhaling during a technique is not the only way..

  • @Torontokoshiki i have actually seen most japanese masters do that , and heard one also talking about compressing the breath into the tanden on the execution , im sure they dont put any pressure outside the tanden , whi is very hard to do , when i try to do it i feel the blood pressure in my head and the IOP increase , not a good thing .

  • Very intresting. I'm just about to learn sushiho and we (IFK) do several passages quite different. I'm wondering if there was something lost or forgotten by Hanshi Steve Arneil or if it's simply another interpretation.

  • ofcourse he wouldnt forget that , because he must see it all the time , be reasonasble.

    but the european masters always change the japanse katas and exaggerate the movement and tense the body , which is in noway as good as the original. osu

  • Excellent instructional kata video by the master himself (Not a competitive version). How some people have the audacity to criticize such a man is beyond me. Maybe they should look at his list of achievements.

    OSU

  • perfect...as always when Matsui is involved.

  • I think that kyokushin's katas are ugly to see =//

  • 体操か?

  • i would say in a characteristic Kata is for more to self precision and internal healing power for centering you're self to you're own characteristic Kata and balancing you're self toward life and goals great exercise

  • kenji midori does much better

  • Matsui unnecessarily changed the kata, who created the Mas Oyama. According to me a form which retains Arneil is most appropriate and reflects the original. Even Oyama signed under the book, which he created Arneil. Matsui and the rest some of the masters want to show what kind they are not good and they changed kata. I don't like "new"=worse katas.

  • i am amazed by his balance.... he is always steady through the whole routine....amazing....

  • This is the third dan black belt kata from kyokushin and is my favourite kata

  • someone may post the bunkai of this kata?

  • @H0useMouse Exactly. The 'deviations' not original, not necessary, or they are not helpful. No need to change these things. Deviations just for sake of it, just so they say they are different and avoid being responsible. Like you say, new members don't know difference. There stuck. Best to do is train and try to connect with Sosai's Honbu dojo in time. The sempais are the ones who don't pass truth on. I like your words. Ossu!

  • @joopsnoop Well Sosai based Kyokushin on other MA's he learned and made it his own. I don't know of any kyokushin branch claiming they have invented a new MA, so all they're doing is deviating from the "central line." We forget that a new karateka has no idea of Kyokushin's political mess unless they've done research before joining a dojo. Dedicated Kohai and Sempais go to the dojo to train, not debate politics, so we have a limited say in what transpires in Kyokushin worldwide. We're stuck :/
