Exactly the way I learned them, move for move with just a bit of variation to Gojo Shiho(which has alot of variation!). Good to see a solid old school Okinawan presence. No overly exaggerated kime hip swivel, kia's or tempo changes. My sensei said going to Okinawa to see the old timers was like watching dinosaurs in a museum. Nothing fancy, just rock solid. Love it. Now for the Bunkai please.
I learned most of these as a teenager in NYC in the 90s. Our dojo was in a basement of a church. Our amazing sensei and his team were able to teach and pass on these forms to dozens of students. I feel honored to have taken part in this style.
Thank you. This is great. It is the same as our Shorin-ryu kata through the Pinan kata, which is exactly what I am working on. I appreciate this very much.
Very interesting to compare with the Shotokan versions. Changing to sports karate, kata had to change from "technique instruction manuals" to "technique management proofs". Yokogeri, jumps, and so on. Neither of them is wrong, just different. But to see the original is quite interesting.
Amazing video! Thank you so much for sharing. I train in Ohshima sensei version of Shotokan karate, and I've noticed that Ohshima sensei changed some elements back in our Shotokan katas back to the original Shorin ryu version, for example, the kicks in Chinto (Gankaku), using Mae geri or yoko geri keage instead of yoko geri kekomi. Still, the interpretation of most of the moves in the katas seems to be quite different. It would be very interesting to see some bunkai of the Shorin ryu katas. Very impressive performance by sensei, anyway. Thank you!
These are all various black belt katas? Because they don't look like any of the kata below black belt that i recall. I was on the verge of brown belt when i had to stop training. 😔
"In Shorin Ryu there are 2 Kusanku... Dai and Sho..." This is not correct! There are about 12 variations of Kusanku! And the oldest and perhaps most important version is Chatanyara Kusanku (not the Chatanyara that you see on tournaments, as this is a modidied tounrament version of it. The verison i speak about is known to some people under the name Kuniyoshi Kusanku. That is the original Kusanku.) And another very important Version of Kusanku is Matsumura Kusanku. It is well known among the masters but not widespread among the average Karatepractitioners. Kusanku Sho is also know as Chibana Kusanku to some people. Kusanku Dai evolved out of the Matsumura iteration. Versions of Kusanku i have heard of are: Chatanyara Kusanku (Kuniyoshi Kusanku to some) Chatanyara Kusanku (the one you see on tournaments) Matsumura Kusanku Chibana Kusanku (aka Kusanku Sho) Kusanku Dai Kanku Dai Kanku Sho And there are about 13 iterations of Passai. Versions i have heard of are: Tomari Passai (one of the oldest versions of Passai) Matsumura Passai Itosu Passai Koshiki Passai Chibana Passai Ishimine Passai Passai Dai Passai Sho Bassai Dai Bassai Sho There are also different versions of Chinto. Tomari Chinto with a diagonal Embusen (see Matsubayashi Ryu) Matsumura Chinto (not sure if the version shown in the video is Matsumura Chinto or not). And finally Gojushiho: It has also several variants. The original form is called Useishi This version here in the video is quite close to Useishi. I know another Gojushiho, that has the exact same name (Gojushiho) but looks different. And of course some Ryuha have Gojushiho Sho and Gojushiho Dai.
Thanks for sharing this valuable knowledge. I was not aware of these variations and oldest Katas. It makes all sense given Matsumura being one of the founders of Karate.
@@chrisvac My pleasure. If you are interested in some good literature: "Empty Hand" by Kenei Mabuni, "Koshiki Kata" by Roland Habersetzer and "Bubishi" by Roland Habersetzer.
@@chrisvac I almost forgot: there are 2 different kinds of Shorin Ryu. Version 1 is based on Seisan and version 2 is based on Naihanchi (some say Naifanchi).

Hello, I am very sure Sensei Uema was under Nakazato Sensei of Shorin-Ryu Shorinkan in the 90's at least. I remember him coming to the US in Virginia for the winter camps hosted by Doug Perry. If I am wrong someone please correct me it seems all the upper rank have their own systems after Shugaro Nakazato passed. I hope this helps.
@@Supermomo2007 Motubu-Ryu isn't Shalion King Fu. It's the style of the Motubu royal clan of the royals.of the Ryukuan Empire.

Shorin-ryu is very hard based on Okinawan style and is a clean but strong style. Shotokan came from Shorin. The techniques on Shorin are based much more on efectiveness then in beauty. In Shorin we have many kihons, muuuuch core training and kumite. Shorin-ryu is one of the very essences of Karate-do.
I think that you are very lazy in your opinions, I am only using your owns words. I self know very well Shotokan, and shorin ryu. As the other people so gently explain you. The origen of Shotokan comes from shorin-ryu and this self from the shuri-te. Shoryn-ryu is one of the 3 main Karate styles in Okinawa. Shotokan was developed in Japan-land for more kompetitive issues and was more popularized. I was dive in Shotokan Karate from my Japaner Shijan Katsuya Ishiyama (9th dan). He self lerned to us Traditional Karate. I recommend you to find a good Sensey that can teach you traditional Karate. Karate means, Integrity and Respect. Karate is not a beaty Kata, and that is Shorin-ryu Karate, discipline and is not ideal for lazy people.
...I'm going to get my popcorn as you just insulted one of the most effective forms of Karate ...that comes directly from Okinawa of all places, the birthplace of Karate...and was the father of Shotokan...that rigid, Japanese-imported Karate style created when Funakoshi went to Japan to sell it. In Okinawa, they train the old ways...meaning makiwara, bunkai and tons of conditioning and sparring is necessary until a certain level when the hands are literally restructured and reformed from chopping at rocks and punching into makiwara, their feet alone feel like rocks hitting the leg. The reason they don't exaggerate is because in combat, you are attacked OUT OF STANCE. You are stacked as you stand up or are walking normally so your fighting must match that situation...hence the heavy reliance on Bunkai and Kumite. In Shotokan, they try to promote.the ONE-PUNCH WIN. But in Karate.that has faced tons of combat like Kyukoshin, they know that you cannot and must not be stagnant and rigid. You must move and constantly be moving, attacking and defending. The only Karate.to.have proven to beat all kinds of Karate was called Motobu-Ryu which has been lost to time...an art that embarrassed Funakoshi when Motobu when to Japan to punish him for commercialising their sacred art of Te, he also defeated westerners and other Okinawans with ease bit was horrible at passing his art down. Hence it's loss to time.
@Daniel Romero To make it even more accurate you rather have to say its from Shuri Te because there are many different Shorin Ryu styles/schools. Its said that Anko Itosu is the father of sport or educational Karate. He was the first wo changed it for the masses and take out dangerous techniques. But there are also Shorin Ryu styles that are not linke to him.
Look's similar to our first 3 Black Belt forms in Tang Soo Do, a little different though, good form's though, look similar to some of our forms in Tang Soo Do though
They started as Pinan kata name in Okinawa. When Funakoshi introduced karate to Japan they where named Heian there and used in his Shotokan style. Original meaning was "peace of mind".

I agree that's the way I learned katas. Move for move with kime and solid stance.

Beautifully done! All the kata done to sandan (3rd degree) rank. Focus with the moves speed timing is so good. Thank you.
Thank you. This is great. It is the same as our Shorin-ryu kata through the Pinan kata, which is exactly what I am working on. I appreciate this very much.
Very nice Great stances,. extremely close to how I was taught. Just slight variation to my style Shorin Ryu Matsumura . Thank you for sharing.
Very interesting to compare with the Shotokan versions. Changing to sports karate, kata had to change from "technique instruction manuals" to "technique management proofs". Yokogeri, jumps, and so on. Neither of them is wrong, just different. But to see the original is quite interesting.
I was at work and my left foot slipped out from under me. I instinctively used the sweeping leg to recover my balance. I felt pretty cool.
Remembering my past of Shorin Ryu Okinawan Karate my Instructor, Late Vergelio and Prospero Enrequez, and my Founder Late Latino Gonzales
Esto si es Karate de verdad!
It's good to know the richness of karate
thank you for presenting the various kata of shorin ryu....❤
