Because true randori is mostly cooperative to practice the waza. Don't confuse randori with shiai (fighting). Kata is not real world. Kata is a safe way to practice basic waza. Which some here don't understand the difference...i.e...all the comments about it not working in real life. If uke was actually attacking him, he wouldn't last long because everything becomes accelerated and the falls become almost impossible to take without getting hurt.

Its a demonstration, breaking limbs is not a good way to show basic technique

[6462nightmare]

if they're both black belts, why aren't they wearing their hakama's

@ronin2167 And there are more breaks. My bud almost broke his elbow during a randori on a grading, that was a year ago and he still has to wrap it up.

For me Technique Number 7, 11, 12, 16 and 17 are most useful. I'm only an Yellow Belt so I don't know what I'm talking about right?

[LoLxF]

lol. I've only started half a year ago and I'm a Yellow Belt(my next grading is next week so hopefully I'll get that Orange) and I sure can do better break falls.. I'm not a professional so I'm going to say that it was ok :)

@wishnxg Your right its not practical. But their not trying to be practical. They are trying to practice techniques. Real Randori is fast action you can't get caught in thinking about your techniques, the way to not need to think about a technique to practice it until it becomes reflex.

[CheetaRevised]

@Shonaripa Randori No kata is a training exercise. Its meant for honing technique.

FightingFitnessUK, The # 2 is going above the Uke's arm and # 3 going under the Uke's arm. watch it again and pay attention to the Tori's left arm when he does the techinque. Actually they are the same technique but one is driven from another

@itachi123100 Against a knife most of these techniques are up to too dangerous. Often, before you e.g. get the opponent down, he has hit or so you with the knife. And many of the techniques evade to the "wrong" side as the knife later goes over one's own stomach.

There is something wrong with this Kata. Technique no 2 (Aigame-ate) is either performed incorrectly or technique 3 (Gyakugamae-ate) is performed twice as they appear almost identical. In Aigame-ate the atemi is delivered under the controlled arm after balance displacement has been achieved. Not underneath as portrayed here.

I hear you completely. To me it ould be an ok performance at a mid level. But these look like dan grades and at that level id expect more. Its kata but it should show sound principle and uke should be stimulateing tori. They need to slow down and think is this going to work. Its safe to say none of them would. Number 2 really stuck out to me. It was bad uke was in no way fixed he would have stepped straight away. Stances were to big. No kamai etc. Kata is where we should be sorting this out.
