You know what western Karate is missing? compassion, intelligence and love, good vid however.

i realised that most traditional karate like goju ryu uses a lot of circular movements while japanese karate uses linear movements . in goju , we performed our gedan barai using a circular method . also , when we move from stance to stance , we also uses circular movements .

@555hansy That's because Okinawan karate is closer to its Chinese roots than is Japanese karate.
