Tomorrow is my championship... And i am a recent orange belt... I m so afraid what am i gonna do tomorrow.. My mates have belief in me... But i am like oops i can't! 🥺And today i hurt my shin, it pains... But i still have to go to participate.. May God bless me! 😍
This is exactly what I need as I'm only 5'4 so everyone is taller than me when I'm in kumite tournament, I'll definitely put these techniques to work 🥋🥋
You're the best 👍, thanks for teaching us how to improve our kicking technique in a special situation like a Kumite. I hope you keep growing and helping other people around the world to keep training and improving day by day along this beautiful road called Karate 🥋
sensei oss ! I'm a karate student and my height is 5 ' but my opponent is taller than me and I also thought about how to fight with her but I really inspired from you. You are my hero and I really like your all technics .. oss
@@hoodlum4511 ive read general chois books and memoirs over the years, I know quite abit about tkd history including its roots to taekkyeon, calligraphy and traditional karate, its a pretty interesting story for sure, I think I did watch the video you mentioned awhile back also and was very informative
The kumite dachi in Kyokushin (which I do) is quite different. Also we prefer using a lot of Gedan Mawashi Geri. Though our style focuses mainly on knocking out.
Amazing video!! A sincere request, Please make a video for the bigger and tall guys too, As of how they should effectively use their height and reach to win the fight. Thanks.
I just was in a tournament yesterday and had this exact problem, height difference was about the same as you 2. Lost my match, damn!, should've seen this couple of days ago, would've been very useful haha. Keep it up!
Thank you so much. I needed to learn how to beat taller opponents. All the bad boys that mess with me are ALWAYS taller than me. Smaller thieves are too scared. They keep threatening me with their size.
8:50- this reminds me of a rear hand straight counter I used. The timing is tricky because I have to move forward as I am doing an inside parry with the lead hand and get my feet set to really drive with a palm heel strike to the abdomen. Ideally, they are still moving forward when the palm heel strike lands and their movement will add to the force of the blow. The risk is missing the parry and my forward movement adding force to the punch I am eating. So I didn't use this all the time. Only when I felt I had a good read on my opponents timing.
I have been learning karate for a little over 2 months. Tomorrow, I am going on a tournament. I know it's early for me and I have lost most of the sparring in my own dojo so I am not expecting to win the tournament but tomorrow I will return and write all the things that I will learn in the tournament tomorrow so it will help me and other beginners. Cheers.
Thank you sensei,when I was 16 years old I did karate 3 years and I stopped, now I an 28 and I do karate on my own, with TH-cam I learn "Jitte" and " Heian Godan" and maybe in September wil go in a dojo with the masters, I love this beautiful discipline! 🩵
In 5’4 and this was very helpful I spar a lot of people that are my height or taller so I needed to watch this plus I’m getting tested for my next belt hopefully soon
@Karate Dojo waKu When you do roundhouse kicks, in karate, is it okay if you drop what becomes your lead hand? Such as at 3:25 and that series of kicks, the right roundhouse kick causes you to drop your right hand. Or is that something that you need to improve (keeping your guard up)?
I instinctively do most of these. I'm the shortest male in my dojo at 5'6 and I have to attack the lower body and link to the midsection or upper mid section since we can't punch to the face in Kyokushin type sparring. Two combinations I use are gedan mawashi geri, gyakuzuki and furi uchi or a chudan mawashi geri, furi uchi and ushiro geri.
@@honigdachs. This combo is normally done later in the match after I have a rythm because my opponent shell up and leave the hidari side open. I start with the migi mawashi geri and follow up with the hidari furi uchi. The furi uchi is near the liver area. They hunch to the side stunned and leave the chudan open. This gives me a chance to adjust my foot work for the migi ushiro geri.
@@honigdachs. if you're going to try it pay attention to foot positioning and the timing. It's very awkward to pull off. In fact I came up with that combo after getting drilled with a liver shot during my mukyu promotion. Yep tons of hip work goes into it. Once I recover from my injury I'm focusing on aligning my technique for my chudan furi uchi. I'm not generating enough power in the punch because I'm not using my hips effectively. Then again I also have to drastically work on my leg strength and flexibility.
Im usually taller or sane height as most people at my belt or higher but this still taught me a lot for sparing becsuse I only do the basics and for bigger opponets this is good because i havent really done bugger opponets because i moved up to advanced classes which is based on belt rank so i had no clue how to attack as good.
Sensei you are amazing. The general idea of this strategy is very interesting, I really like the way of thinking. But I have to admit that these technics are only designed for Shotokan style of pointfighting tournaments. Please keep the good work on. Do you have some tactics for real street-defense or streetfighting. I really would like to see some aplications against larger opponents on the street in one of your excellent future video projects. I think the real Karate spirit lies in kata-bunkai street- real- life applications. Thank you so much for your efforts Sensei.
If your opponent is taller than you with a longer arm reach, would they also not have a longer leg reach as well? Would not their kick distance still be farther away from you like their punching distance is?
your arm = shorter than his arm and leg. your leg = shorter than his leg. 1st instance 100%shorter, 2nd instance 50% shorter. This is just relating to distance and not other attributes like mental (fear, motivation, killer instinct, etc.), speed in movement (closing the distance, sideways, backwards, etc.) At least odds changed little bit more to shorter persons favour...🤔
@@Princeyy_editz lol fortunitely karate in my country are going back to the oldway, so more harder/longer to raise belt rank, and the kumite competition became more hardcore, theres going to be a national competition and rules are in the middle of full body cuntact and point kumite, ya know like the old days.
I sparred many times over 8 years in the 70s against many guys taller and bigger than me. My fav against them was Ushiro geri. I practised it a lot. A real powerful kick.
I like to use the "troll kick* where I step forward as if I'm about to kick, so he lowers his guard to block it, then punch his face nice and fast instead. It mostly works for karate or Teakwondo. Not so much in MMA. It may only work once or twice.
i had my tournament today and unfortunately lost to a 5’4 person and i am 5’2 because she was towering over me, i have another tournament in november. I will definitely try this! ❤
I'm 6'3" and im not into karate, or any fighting sport, but i still found this very enjoyable. Thank you, keep up the good work

Thanks.
great video! helped me very much!! also, keep it up!
背の低い人には右構えをお勧めします。前足の右足を相手の前足の少しは外側に置くと間合いがずーっと近くなります。蹴りを突きよりも遠い間合いと考えると危険なことが多いです。相手も動きますから突きと蹴りの間合いは同じと考えた方がよいと思います。因みに僕は60歳を越えてから左構えで右手を前に出す逆構えで相手に肘を殺していくようになりました。
Love this video mate

Second one sounds difficult Do you land the furi uchi with the same side hand as the mawashi geri, or is it right leg kick, left hand punch?
