- ADEYTO talks to the most dangerous man in Japan, MORIO HIGAONNA 東恩納 盛男, 3rd generation Founder of Okinawan Goju-ryu Karate.
Morio Higaonna born December 25, 1938 is a prominent Okinawan karate practitioner who is the founder and Chief Instructor of the International Okinawan Goju-ryu Karate-do Federation (IOGKF). He is a holder of the highest rank in Goju-ryu karate, 10th dan.
Higaonna has written several books on Goju-ryu karate, including Traditional Karate-do: Okinawa Goju Ryu (1985) and The history of Karate: Okinawan Goju Ryu (2001). Martial arts scholar Donn Draeger (1922--1982) reportedly once described him as "the most dangerous man in Japan in a real fight.

That's a great way of practicing pushing-hands (soft-hard) elements, like in Taijiquan.!! One can see the similarities in both martial arts of Goju-ryu and Taijiquan.
Man is dangerous at a senior age. Imagine in his prime. Motivational. Dedication.
this is his prime LOL
I was fortunate enough to meet Higaonna Sensei last year and train with him. Amazing guy
+Longi1974 I envy you
is it onna sensei or higa sensei?
Thank You for diplaying this, I to am practitioner of Goju Ryu taught by my Uncle Eric Washington. I had been reading posts where people would trash talk karate and say it is not practical in self defense. I have not had much time to make some videos to show that karate is very effective. I am glad to see the true pioneers of karate make these movements practical to show people karate does work. Very great material here!! Even I have seen a few things in these videos.
Brilliant man , love his ways of looking at injuries and other small stuff that we cant control and never mind it
Thank you for producing and sharing this video. I've heard that one of Sensei's greatest desires is to preserve traditional karate for future generations. Since it's impossible for everyone to train with Sensei Higaonna in person it's fantastic that we can hear his words and see his demonstrations through your videos.
Very deep spiritual journey. It is true. It is WITHIN. You can tell this person is very strong not just physically but also mentally. Very powerful video. Thanks for uploading!
My friend... it kinda hurts me to see that these videos dont have as many views as they should. What you have here is gold. Thank you so much for sharing it
Everybody should watch these videos to constantly remind us to be humble and respectful to others.
Sensei Higaonna has always been a pure inspiration to me!!! Thanks for the upload (;
i was just thinking i could take him in a fight but when he made those movements, my instincts fired up saying 'back away'. i always believe its the practitioner not the art but he's both.
ZoroXLuffy it seems as a ritual dancing
I love how he starts with the second basic Kata. Not saifa or seunchin or any of the flashy ones he starts with the basics.
I also loved the stomps. I thought my sensei was doing that to make us kids laugh.
those samurai armors are so freaking awesome. Gotta get one of these in my living room.
right? brutally expensive, though.
I saw some in Japan for about $6000US
Morio higaonna is unique.
Yes, I watched all the masters videos. Very inspiring words. Thanks for the upload and looking forward to future videos.
Thank you so much for this! Wise words from a humble man!
i hope everyone that watches this can see more than the power but THE RESPECT HE HAS FOR HIS ART. That is the one thing we are missing today. Now days everyone wants to show how bad a** they are, especially the young black belts. Please start teaching the ART in MARTIAL ARTS, God bless
Thanks for these videos and the Hirokazu Kanazawa videos, they are great!
Totally agree, these videos are precious.
Master is very down to earth man. I respect that.
Very nice to see application of joint locks and throws , Karate is not only punches and kicks.There is another Sensei who uploads videos here in you tube , you can look for Tom Hills.Very nice demos of basic grappling.
@Whammer79 My understanding is that there are plenty of grapples and throws in kata, even some standing submissions. But, many of the grapples are meant to be taught outside of kata as well. Chin na had a huge influence on Tuite. In real karate training, there's also Tegumi, which is based on Shuai Jiao (Chinese Wrestling) and an Okinawan version of Sumo or Judo. Look up the Koryu Uchinadi guys - very interesting.
I feel sorry for the guy that isn't Higaonna. The man is a legend in his own lifetime. I wish I could train with him some day.
EPIC!!
thanks for posting!
ありがとうございます!!!
I almost cried :)
Such a great man!
強くなるのに苦労された方なんだな。
尊敬します。
Man that old guy can move
If I could have a tenth of his power through my practice of taekwondo at his age, I will be very very happy
you will if you practice.
Truly AWESOME! Karate for all LIFE!
Thank You , Respect and Honor.
07:23 Higaonna knows how to throw a vicious body shot.
5:00 and 5:07 those kicks in the balls hit the target and hurt ... The guy's grimace at 5:04 and 5:07 says it all
3:55 that engagement felt like watching a battle in an anime
The title of this video series is absolutely misleading. This guy is no more deadly than a nine millimeter hollow-point...
This guy is a genius who has pursued a craft with a devotion which is his identity. He can connect with another person in a fight in a way that is utterly intimate. In fact I suspect that any real fight would leave him with a deep sadness. The violence is practically irrelevant. He might as well be dancing.
This is true Karate.I only trained in Go Ju Ryu for about 2 years before getting green belt and blowing out my knee.This will toughen your body and mind like no other Martial art.
Impressionnant dans sa simplicité! Peu importe la voie choisie, l’important c’est de la suivre !
The dude playing the crash-dummy was in some real discomfort!
Sensei Terauchi (Sensei Higoanna's training partner in this film) is absolutely as hard as nails and I'd say pretty much every bit as tough as Higoanna. IIRC, Sensei Terauchi is 8th Dan and IOGKF Japanese chief instructor.
Why do I feel like your comment is disrespectful? "The dude" has a name and a lifetime of experience in karate...
@@David-ku7mt - no disrespect intended.
@@tonioyendis4464 I am sorry then, thanks for the clarification.
inspirational man so talented but modest
3:55 the old guy moves very fast! You don't want to mess with him in a real fight for sure!
Bro he is legend of karate , legend are not born everywhere or every year
im in awe of the callouses on those dude's fists. they suffered alot of pain to make those fists of steel
***** its called hojo undo or power training, and you get hard hands like that from punching a makiwara board for many years, as well palm striking and chopping at a rather large and old shapen rock for the purpose.
the pain from hojo undo lasts for about 2 weeks before you deaden the nerves. After this you keep doing it building a layer of callouses.
***** punching a lot the makiwara board or get a lot of news papers and put them on concrete wall and when you do push ups do them with the knuckles. Osu
despite Master sensei ages, he is 10th Dan,so his movements,precision and chi power still giving goosebumps,i mean look on their last minute spar 5:20.at the end looks who's out of breathe and lost of chi's energy.
i ever saw 4th Dan sensei in my Dojo doing Katas practice and sparring with 3rd Dan, this is Far beyond painful.
.if i'm not wrong,sensei Terauchi is around 7-8th Dan.Cause i saw a pretty big gap power,breathing and balance between Master Sensei Higaonna & sensei Terauchi.
ありがとうございます。
Their hands and forearms are conditioned every day all day!! to get such thick callouses they could punch through 1" thick glass without getting hurt, and even break through 20+ cinder blocks using inner force and/or Chi techniques. It's about channeling your natural bodies energy into the part of your body to strike with deadly force! Grand Masters of any Martial Arts can kill anybody in any multiple pressure point techniques in just a single move. I trained in Okinawan Shorin Ryu Karate Do! which is very close to this style of Goju-Ryu Karate! I also took this style for 2 years! the other one for 5 years! Now I don't do either, and have a brain disease which i am loosing control over my neurological motor movements! I have not done anything much physically for 20 years now. I'm fat, tired all the time, and always pull muscles when I do even the simplest of basic exercises.
I dont think it was intended but I like how the camera shakes when they stomp
Holy front kick!
great to see some techniques that exist in Aikido here
i don't think the 'young guy' was enjoying that :)
It's how you train in Gojo-ryu. Look at their two front knuckles, that's from doing thousands of pushups on them. Literally everyone who does this style has knuckles like that. The training gets rough in the higher belts but that's no different to sparring in boxing... train like you fight and all that.
It's probably one of the best styles of karate as far as how well it works in a real fight, has some decent ground stuff. Some of it is based on fighting people who have a sword when you don't (think villagers being invaded by armed attackers), so some of it is obsolete.
Being fought is the best way to learn. He might not have been happy but he was satisfied absolutely.
what was that last bit training type & what is it for???.. haven't seen it before
Could u explain?
Is the audio out of sync for everyone else too?
This guy Is a real deal
...that guy's balls...he grimaced til the end
love the fact this man wears a "new and crisp looking" black belt. You can tell he has no ego whatsoever with wearing an old frayed black belt that is going white with age. Most sensei like to "appear" they are experienced and have been black belts forever with this old terrible belts, when in fact their actual technique is terrible.
did you watch our 4 video interviews of Shotokan world legend Kanazawa-sensei, his comments are as awesome as Higaonna-sensei's! you can find them also on our channel...
It would be a honor just to learn one move from him.
Is it just me, or does 5:54 onward look like sticky hands in Wing Chun? Definitely see the Chinese influence there!
The uke probably has tendons so stretch out that he feels no pain. I think I still prefer the firm tatami than the hardwood floors.
I can't help but think of Heihachi Mishima
That hurt my feelings to see that sensei go down hard on those planks
True, true...
he talks about doing the moves "in slow motion"...
what is so funny at 3:31? The interviewer and the senseis laugh. (I dunno Japanese)
Can anyone direct me to part 1 etc?
We don’t see such moves in Goju in USA
good
Everything can be made to be mighty impressive with a willing non-resisting opponent. Unless I see the technique performed under realistic conditions I will keep on calling bullshit.
I believe so...
GOD IS GREAT
Theres no crying in baseball...so theirs no crying in karate...ever...not even if you break your foot sparring and then continue for another hour...lol...ever...no crying.
Wow this old guy is true killer
These are good for general fitness, but people in the real world don't throw punches or kicks like that... Fights are chaotic by nature and frenzied
You must be Grand master level
He just like to beat people up.
Wouldn't it be a very different world.
I would love to see mma fighters try to test him
Me too. however he is 83 years old so the mma guy should be same age, in order to keep fairness.
i would do anything to be able to train with him
i have met this gentleman on two different occasions, and it that is what you believe, then you are sadly wrong my friend
Somethings fishy about the filming. Seems like effects is put in.
I am so fucking busy I can assure you I have no fucking time to put ANY fucking effects...
5:15 Ouch!
Uh, being slapped by that big scary hands from two sides of your face must be painful.
im japanese. but i cant understand what they do. i see they are doing karate. but i cant feel their excerence
It want 0 to 100 real fast 3:57
😶
diamond*
Let's see Bas Ruten and joe rogan talk shit about this man
I doubt it. He's a master of his own brand of karate from a branch that's been passed down locally. And those techniques were a product of their time when they're defending against armed individuals and armored samurai, not boxers, wrestlers, and BJJ fighters. It also has its roots in training and fighting on boats, hence the lack of kicks and more lower, conservative stances to maintain balance.
The hands are low since weapons are naturally drawn from the hip - you want to defend against a weapon going for your gut, not a cross to the face. Tougher hands means the ability to smash wooden armor and resistance to cutting wounds when sticking that hand out against a blade that didn't have enough momentum to be fatal. Double handed strikes so that one parries the weapon, the other seizes the opponent's armor or clothing. Lots of trips and standing shoulder locks to make the weapon user ineffective.
The same shit won't work in MMA and barehanded boxing, but these make sense with the type of enemies they fought historically.
sukotsutoclone do yourself a favor and look up this guys iri kumi video im certain this same shit would work on a boxer or an MMA fighter they train for those kind of punches and kicks also
He's amazing but the spar was very staged
All it takes is one blow from him, yo are dead !
paul wonderley The sparring partner isn’t really sparring, I forgot the name of what that was suppose to be but its to feel your opponent’s movement and strike when the time comes
@@wailee6621 no disrespect meant the guy obviously has spent his life dedicated to something but if u have someone who knows how to fight hes not catching half the moves hes performing against a unstrained weaker man he will catch most if not all
@@ninthkaikan1544 it's like a tech spar I think have a lot of respect for anyone who dedicates there life to to a martal arts I just question how practical they are in comparison to more modern full contact hybrids
So? And?
Massive amount of AIKIDO in it ?
Karate was before Aikido?
this is GO JU ryu, GO = hard, JU = SOFT.
As far as I know, the root of JUHO techniques comes from Jujutsu.
But this is nothing like aikido, aikido techniques have a lot of circular motions, these ones are more direct
Yeah, you're right sir, i do goju ryu karate
Rizal Djohan So Ashihara karate is partialy based on aikido then? Because there are alot of circular motions in Ashihara throwing technics.
Mr440c aikido has basic of karate , Generaly karate it older than aikido
That poor guy is just being used as a punch bag 🤪
hahahaha.....cada sapecada
WTF is wrong with there hands man that's why you do hit rocks you condition your hands in sand or something that won't fuck your hands up... Smh karate but anyways i like karate and would like to train with that 10 Dan
his opponent's too predictable
octabrain 1 It was a demonstration, and they literally went through what they would do before hand so of course Higaonna Sensei knows what he's going to do, but it's still powerful and it'd still work in a real fight
what, trying to get hit by your opponent?
What? I don't understand what you're saying, what they're doing here is a demonstration of technique in front of people watching, they were running through what they were going to do before doing it full speed, in return to your comment about his opponent being too predictable, they were demonstrating and they knew what they were going to be doing, so yes he was predictable, but his techniques and his responses were still relevant to a real fight.
yes, I know, it was a joke
@@CraigHarrisMusic Exactly 👍
I liked the old man from karate kid better
and he just gave that guys junk a foot rub
he needs someone to fix his floor its all lose boards
I do not agree with this at all. I trained Karate for 1991 to 2000, I trained juijitsu for 7 years. If your teacher or coach is like this leave. Find another place to train.
I took Wa do Ryu from Toshio Osaka my high rank was Blue Belt 10 yrs later I got sucker into a Hawaii vacatio package, soon after received word nobody can make it off the islands natives closed in on tourist with tazers, stun guns and pinapple knives slashing rib cages of the prettiest woman you ever laid eyes on. I pulled over the head cannibol said hey why don't we make this a new Hawaiian punch game you how many of mine and me how many of yours the one with biggest stink pile wins everything ancient Hawaiian no guns me punch & kick tell send your errand boy the message I come to each island I cheat no one everyone has a chance to kill me on my vacation. The message runner disappeared over the hill I said the Hwaiian Punch tornment know begins, push 3 natives against th wall kill all 3 with 1 punch counted out loud 3 then push 2 more up punch counted five hour later 1800 then down the hill to 2000 more. On 1 island I fought for 4 days 3 nights only 2 breaks one 7 minute the other 12 minutes documented kill 60,000 total fist and kick 80,000 plus an additional 40,000 by airwolfing total points 120,000 and I was also blood crown Malta King is that kool or not? And o yes there was a punch trade an Osaka Punch for an Obama Punch!
That's sounds like the biggest load of crap I ever heard.
Their hands are very unhealthy. I bet they both are in constant pain from severe artritis.
+TaijiquanGaoshou Their hands are not unhealthy and they are not in pain; they condition their hands to harden bone structure and skin. Nothing to do with arthritis.
+TaijiquanGaoshou Sensei said in part one of this series "I have never had any major illness"...only one broken bone once from doing gymnastics.....guess that includes arthritis...don't you think?
Most traditional sensei's will make you strengthen your knuckles by punching trees, rocks, etc. when I started my knuckles were bleeding after the first lesson
Actually their hands get resistant to pain.
Iron palm and red sanding palm conditioning prevent this in soft and hard styles respectively
Bad person, no sensei !!!
He don't have respect from the uke !!
