  • ...did i just get rick rolled?

  • fuck I love karate.

  • @MrNickjannini, I have had great teachers that people would have done anything to train under thank you, sorry again if you were insulted but it was you that started the insult. Good day to you also & good luck on your training.

  • @merari2306 In regards to "Tai Chi speed and power", this particular style of Shorin-Ryu (I believe Matsubayashi-Ryu) was never meant to have the speed and power of the other Shuri-te styles. This falls under Migwa-te, developed by Chotoku Kyan. The speed and power is intentionally replaced with slower, circular moves. If you're familiar with Chan Migwa's history, you can see why.

  • @ShorinRyuRonin To add onto what you posted, I believe it was Miyamoto Musashi who said "If someone is skilled in this Way, he does not appear to be fast."

  • @merari2306, You should have respect and know that this is how he was asked to perform. It is not hard to find out how much power & speed he has if you are interested, he is in Gardena California.

  • where are you from?

  • one of the nicest(as in clear) presentations of Rohai.....its good to see Ota Sensei still conducting training at his Dojo, and making these professional Videos, Rising Sun is no fly bynight operation(Pun intended)

  • Ota Sensei! Onegaishimasu!

  • Belts dont necessarily indicate your potential. They just help identify who is at what level. That 4th degree belt may be good enough for you at your school. But Ive never considered myself good enough for one in the presence of real karate practitioners. You should be in peak physical form second and second to none for your potential before considering a black belt. Demeanor also has a lot to do with it, and you should work on that aspect diligently.
