  • ROCKY, Where is this clip from? (What video?) And what is the setting? i.e. location, competition, year. Thanks.

  • I am sorry I do not have that info. I found the clip while searching the web and do not have the website anymore.

  • All the others mentioned here (Valdesi, Milon) are, or were, great sensei. But for me, Yahara is best. His technique looks more real, more raw, less refined, less contrived. It seems like it was distilled only recently from an actual fight. That, to me, is more authentic. Just my humble.

  • Never seen Unsu Shotokan style this good !!!!!!!! Mind blowing

  • @DMWH That's true. But the thing is, put Yahara Sensei in a modern kata competition of good level and he probably would not go through the first round. From a WKF view, Yahara's kata lacks controll and finesse. Yahara was one of the greatest in traditional karate, just like Valdesi is one of the greatest modern kata competitors. Both deserve respect for reaching the top in their respective organisation.

  • @AmrFekry stupidity = you

  • @ghazals99 Then you obviously live under a rock.

  • @thefanaticx ,no man we can not compare small valdesi with japanes yahara , the japanss they are the father of karate ,and kanazawa was the teacher of yahara ,and kanazawa by himself was the student of funccushi the fondator of karate , valdesi i am better then him , you know what the last japanes in karate is better then him .....................

  • yahara means karate

  • This is a real traditional dude the real unsu is THIS!!!

  • Unsu: Luca Valdesi vs Mikio Yahara... Yahara for traditionalists, Valdesi for Liberals (my opinion)

  • This is a real kata, not that stupid XMA stuff. though its cool, its taking the traditional discipline out and replacing it with performance rather then self control.

  • ghazals99, Yahara Sensei is one of Shotokan's greatest legends. And Unsu is his favorite Kata. He performed it at hundreds of tournaments.

  • Did this video come with the music? If you added it, what is the song called? It fits perfectly.
