@robertvoice - We do... SOME of the kata are Chinese origin and others are Chinese influenced. The Chinese don't even take the full credit. I just wish people would stop associating karate with Japan. It is Okinawan.

[OkinawaShorinryu]

@ronin752 Ok, right, Itosu intoduced the modified karate to the Okinawan schools but Funakoshi introduced that to the Japanese school systems. Right?

[Koryuhoka]

@tommotomt - Sure. I have to stop wasting time on people who choose to accept inaccuracies.

[tommotomt]

@Koryuhoka i wouldnt worry about it too much. why should something have any more or less value according to where it is from? yes, guam and hawaii are in the us, and okinawa is in japan. maybe you are confusing "is" and "was". to say "okinawa had nothing to do with japan" is a bit silly; and to say karate should not be associated with japan is like saying cheese should not be associated with america, because it originated in europe. there is cheese in america, and the cheese is GOOD.

@tommotomt - really? Is Hawaii in the US? is Guam? NO! They are a US State and a US Territory that at one time independent, having nothing to do with the US. But through conquest and military strength was taken by the US government. The Hawaiians and People of Guam had no say in the matter. In the same way Okinawa had nothing to do with Japan. It was INVADED by Japan. So something that is invaded, all of the sudden is "in" Japan? Educate yourself in the history of Okinawa.

@Koryuhoka okinawa is in japan mate

[shftyswtchblade2]

Very similiar to the Pasai Dai we're taught here in Okinawa (Shorin-ryu Reihokan)... footing is a little different, as are some of the punches. Very cool though.

[gojuryukarateka]

Looks like a hybrid of Bassai Dai and Tomari Passai ... and done well.

@OkinawaShorinryu

It really wasn't Funakoshi, but Itosu who created the school system karate. Japan took off with it without seeking to understand the original okinawan art.

@MrNickjannini You don't think I know anything about Matsumura Karate and it lineage and history. You're the one not knowing my friend. I've been in this business a long time and had talked with some of the older masters pass gone. Either someone has pump you with the wrong info or you have read someones BS. I rather help you with this than argue like you say. You seem knowledgable on much of this but there is a lot of misinformation and speculations in books or by folks with little clue.

[MrNickjannini]

@OkinawaShorinryu I have nothing to prove by arguing with people that have no idea what they're talking about.
