Thank you for taking the time to watch, and your patience as we work out our sound issues!
Let us know what you'd like to see or learn next :)
Great useful and instructional podcast., thanks.
Thank you so much for the lovely comment!
Thank you from myself and all the other brown belts!
Thank you for being the brown belt who comments the most!
Will keep working on sound and subtitles - every video throws another learning curve 🤣
Hopefully the mic we've ordered will make things better
these videos are a must for anyone training on their own as they are very explicit in technique, very few videos put out today with exception of a few are this explanatory, thank you.
Hopefully we can all return to full dojo training soon! But for now, we are trying to help everyone who has to train from home and/or alone.
Thank you for stopping by with these kind words 🙇🏻♀️
You are great God bless you
So kind, Ravi! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment, we truly appreciate it :)
Another good video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge so freely. Its great to have these videos available so that we can revisit when we need to.
We all stand on the shoulders of giants - the least we can do is share what we know from those who have gone before. Thank you for always watching, Sensei Davina! - Z
Thank you very mach !!!! It is goed to learn !!!!!
Thank you so much for the kind words! 🙇🏻♀️
thank you,oshh
🙇🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️
Thank you Sensei! this helped me with the technical hand technique in the beginning
Ah, wonderful! So glad that it was useful 🙇🏻♀️
Thank you for watching and commenting, much appreciated 🌺
Greetings, Sensei! As always, many thanks for sharing your knowledge. Shisochin is one of my favourite katas. Even when we may think that "know" a kata, there is always much more to refine and improve on. Thanks for breaking it down into such great detail!
Every kata is a delicious parfait of layers! Always something new to uncover or a chewy part that needs unpacking.
Thank you so much for watching and commenting - always muchly appreciated 🙇🏻♀️
Great video. Thank you so much.

Hai, doitashimashite!
Thank you so much for watching and commenting, Ryan!
Thank you
You're most welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting :)
Thank you for this! Really want to surprise my senseis and do a good job at this kata. Lovely explanation, super useful!
Ah, that's wonderful to hear! We're sure your senseis will be so proud - the student who works extra outside the dojo is definitely black belt material 💪
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre Thank you! Was feeling a little unwell for the past few days, so this comment really cheered me up :) Coincidentally, I have my black belt exam in the coming month, so this motivation was much needed, thank you!
@@aishwaryapotdar1348 Ah, gambatte! We know you'll ace it :) Come back and tell us all about it afterwards. Such a special milestone on this journey!
Thank you so much
Thank you, Kingston! So nice to hear from you ☺️
Thank you Sensi. Nice to watch and see what's in store for the future. Sound wasn't bad at all my side. Thank you Sensi Zoe also for your time and effort
Thank you for the kind words, Barbs! Much appreciated, and I'm sure you'll enjoy Shisochin when you get there one day
I subscribed to your channel because I am a NiDan in USA GOJU, my instructor learned from Master Urban’s Dojo, I believe that you are doing a good job.
Welcome to our blue collar karate channel, Thomas White! We're so glad to have you here with us. We have Sensei Urban's book on our shelf, and we always recommend it to our uchi deshi students. It is one of the best books on building dojo spirit. Thank you for the kind words, and we look forward to hearing from you again :)
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre that was a very pleasant letter to read thank you very much for sharing
Lovely kata on Shisochin, as always.
Thank you so much!
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre Nice to see details like nukite pointing downwards, being talked about, as well as the snap back focusing on thumb base. The four direction palm strikes: OGKK / Jundokan does it slowly, IOGKF does it fast. The story behind that: when Anichi Miyagi asked Chojun Miyagi why he was taught to do it fast, but he saw that when others did it, they did it slowly....Chojun replied and said, he demonstrated it slowly to them because he was old by the time they learnt the kata (meaning Jundokan/OGKK lineage). I actually looked at Meibukan Shisochin because of this, and found that true enough, Yagi and Higa both early students of Chojun Miyagi, taught the fast version. Anyway, an interesting variation to the palm strike when done slowly, is to do a nukite slowly most of the way, and only converting into a palm strike at the end.....the fingers lead the strike, and when the fingers touch the target....the hand changes shape into a palm strike - hidden meanings that were lost when this part of the kata is done quickly.
It would be *amazing* if YT would stop eating all the super-long replies I write! Sigh.
Thank you for this fascinating insight - I definitely learned something new! We often forget that karate is influenced as much by the health and abilities of those who teach it. Sometimes there's no obscure secret - Sensei was just old, or ill, and was doing the best he could with the body and health he had. And karate should never be reserved for the strong and powerful, because then it would lose its efficacy and global appeal. So it is always reassuring to read these snippets, and always such a delight to hear from you, good sir!
Thank you for taking the time to watch, and for sharing your knowledge with us. How wonderful that we can do all this now!
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre You're too kind. I watched all your videos, but I was locked out of my account and could not comment for some months - the new youtube security system could not confirm that I was me because I had changed devices !
Thank you sensei im going to my karate class after 1 year because of the lockdown thank you sensei for the kata analysis
So happy you are able to return to your dojo! No doubt your Sensei will be so happy to have you back on the mat! Wishing you a wonderful, safe and rewarding year of training 🙇🏻♀️
Thank you for watching, and leaving this kind comment 🌺

Hello. You can use a lapel mic to record your audio - they're cheap to get and easy to use - they may not make the audio quality mega professional, but they'll still do the job well enough. You can use that mic to record into your phone and then use that audio. You'll have to do some googling on how exactly to do it, but it shouldn't be too difficult. I'd love to watch the whole video but the subtitles are out of sync hahah. I'll still be trying to learn as much as I can from this. So, thank you.
Hello!
Right after this video, we did get a lapel mic - our regret is not getting it sooner! It has made such a change to our videos. It took a little bit of effort to learn but well worth it.
Those subtitles got so broken, somewhere along the way - after many hours of trying to get them to sync, I gave up. But I will try again some day!
Thank you so much for taking the time to comment, and we hope you will enjoy our newer, better videos 😊
Your comment inspired me to fix the subtitles - they are all in the correct place now. Please enjoy!
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre Wow! Thank you so very much! I was checking out the anatomy of Sanchin video and was enjoying all the info there and decided to subscribe! Thank you for taking the time to teach us all these things. I really appreciate it.
We love making content, and meeting people from all across the karate world in our comments - we look forward to sharing more knowledge for years to come 🙇🏻♀️
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre as I hope to soak that knowledge from you :)
*Rei*
Funny though, I've seen some US Ranger or green beret training manual from Vietnam war times and this hand position with slight variations was shown as their main fighting stance and not a boxer stance that anybody would expect. I wonder if their have over-trained in Okinawa before going to combat. :)
Can't go wrong with a hand in someone's face, or to their throat! But definitely could be a link to the GIs who trained in Okinawa after the second World War ;)
In 1945, as World War II came to a close, Okinawa was placed under American rule, and until it was reverted to Japan on May 15, 1972. US Marine Corp did incorporate concepts from Goju and Isshin into it's combatives.
We have been very, very lucky to have military men from that time chat to us via email and this channel, about their training in Okinawa 🙇🏻♀️
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre : don't tell us they've found ikigai through awamori! :)))
@@GojuRyuKarateCentre the men who brought martial arts to the USA were primarily military. Pete Urban who established USA Goju Ryu was Naval Intelligence. Victor Buddy Amato my instructor was an army ranger before teaching Goju Ryu in the 1970s.
