Another way to practice this block is to swing the nunchucks over the side of your shoulder. Or to use the No staff to make small circles with the forearm.
Thank you for the detailed explanation! For years I’ve been doing it with just the #2 movement and hip rotation. Adding the #1 pulling action of the elbow makes a noticeable difference. 勉強になりました！
That's not really the block! The crossing hand is the block. What you're teaching is a cover/control move after the block. You must've seen this when you trained in Okinawa. To block as you're demonstrating, the blocking hand has to travel across your centerline and then back out to the outside to intercept the attack. The crossing hand can intercept the attack in a single movement across the centerline (twice as fast!) and then hand off to the blocking hand for cover/control. If the attacker is competent at all, you're not going to beat his punch with the block you're describing.

Hip rotation is necessary for sure! I’ll hopefully cover that soon!
I like to do that way and I will practice training karate for protect myself ❤

Nice!
What timing! I just finished my first chi ishi
Niceeeee
Hello from algeria and OSS
Very good lesson. Q; why are you bring the block from across the body?
You need that distance to generate momentum to the block.
@@KarateDojowaKu makes sense, thxs.
Why is it in Goyu Ryu that block called Tsuto Uke? Uchi Uke would be Tsuto for you.
I think you mean Soto Uke. Soto means outside, so it's a difference in seeking the block "from" the outside ot "to" the outside

That's one way to block for sure!
This is for fighting with a weapon.
It can be used for that too!
