Teaches principles of quick movements against simultaneous front and rear attacks. Thought to be created by a man named Chinto, who was attacked from both directions while crossing a narrow bridge.

[isshinrob]

@Tychosan Interesting comment. Care to explain?

[Kinghercules]

I dont like the Isshinryu way of doin Chinto.

[isshinrob]

@Kinghercules Ummm ok, thanks for the comment?

[isshinrob]

You are absolutely right. Personal height, speed, strength, power, reach...it will all determine personal variations in your advantages and disadvantages. I am only 5'8", so in most cases my goal is to close distance fast and fight on the inside where I am strong. I focus on developing precision in my strikes and make every strike penetrate to the core. I can't risk going toe to toe with someone larger. Drop him fast and move on!

This is the way my style is.

The video is helpful since I'm trying to learn it.

You guys need to chill out though. Just because YOU don't do this style doesn't mean u have to piss on it.

I'm only 14 and even I know better

Nice. I find Isshin Ryu very interesting (but never practiced it). I like your expression of the kata.

[jiggahippo]

@Tychosan nothing wrong with his performance. Better than most I have seen on YT.

[xoShort6]

@isshinrob I agree 100%.

[AcornsAndAntlers]
