Thank you Sensei, i have been training karate for 7-8 years, but then i made a break from it around 3-4 years, i am a brown belt (a step away from black) i regret making that 3 year break, im looking to get back into karate now, it's good to refresh my memory by watching your videos, very informative content
Wow. Its the first time I fully understand because you explain it perfectly. And thank you for teaching us on line . 🙏 I think your sleeves punched 👊 me .. amazing
Wow! This video is amazing! I am beginner in Karate and this was useful for me. I am some times confusing in the motions, but with this video I understand better the blocks.
One reason is that a strike is most powerful at the end/point-of-attack. Stepping into a strike with a block or deflection stunts the attack where it is weaker. The closer on the arm or leg to the point of origin that you block, the less resistance you will face.
Great video tutorial. If I may point out a correction, that would be to check the trajectory of those Soto uke esp. from your right hand as they look like uppercuts. Thanks for the clear instruction and for capturing good amount of detail in your blocking techniques.
We've always been taught that, in gedan-barai, that the non-blocking arm, which you put forward when the blocking arm is next to your head, should be a little in front of the crotch, so that you can protect a little, while your block is coming. It looks like that when you've made the first block, you just let that arm stay excactly the same place, while you take the other arm up to your head. We've also been taught that the blocking arm, should be about 10-15 cm/5-6 inches, above the knee.
I know THAT bow to be called the "Peasant bow" The Warrior has his hand on the front of his thighs with elbows slightly bent so you can be ready to block anything that comes your way because your arms are "cocked" and ready to block.
this is a good question! 1) You need to turn your head, always the side of you behind leg. 2) Then you put your hand above the opposite shoulder. 3) Turn and do gedan barai. Well. At least this is the way that my sensei teach to me.
KATAS ARE THE HEART OF KARATE -DO- The Okinawan katas are the basis for most modern karate. Without kata there would be no karate- The katas are what makes the martial arts an art. Many hidden movements are contained, throws, takedowns and sweeps.- As far as the Japanese are concerned- supposed the Americans had lost the second world war- Would we be so anxious to teach the invading soldiers the correct way to do anything? The katas are deceptive but when studied their value is found.
I have a question! Please if you could help me out- when you do the blocks for e.g the gedan barai and shuto uke, we actually hear the movement. Even when my sensei does this its the same. Its the only thing lacking in my kata, which makes it appear that I don't put enough strength it when I do it. How can I actually do that? Does it develop with regular practice..or something else?
It's a combination of using a heavyweight gi, and an exhalation of breath. In Korean arts we call it 'shin chook' breathing, or 'ho hop cho chun'; breath power
THESE ARE NOT ACTUALLY BLOCKS- THEY ARE STRIKES- You guys have a lot to learn. When you become aware of this the techniques/bunkai from all the katas become better understood. The shuto is clearly a strike, the ready hand is used to grab. The outside and inside so called blocks will not stop a punch. The upper block fits perfectly under the chin- The lower block is used to hit an opponet who is on the ground and can also be used to strike an incoming kicking leg ..
No wonder the Japanese took their inside knowledge and left people to flounder around. People the trouble with these arts is that they only teach one part of the arts and wrong.
He is a Sensei by nature. I like the way he explains the block concept, movements, positions, angles..

When u do the full one step block do u bring the knees together or 👎
Thank you for the blocks
oss Sensei..
sehr hilfreiches video...
very help me thanks..
Please continue ur tutorials,,,,plzzzzz
Hi your I'm kida new to karate but how long it take to be where you are
Would it be correct, that all preparations for blocking you'd be full facing, and when block executed, you'd be half-facing ?
That sounds like the uniform(karate-gi). The heavyweight ones usually make a snapping/swooshing sound
My Sensei would shake his head about those foot positions..
MUY DIDÁCTICO ES ESTE VIDEO.
ITS SUCH A NICE VIDEO THAT I HAVE GET MY FIRST BELT WOHOO
Thank you for the tip Shorin Bushido.
many thanks ! that's what i need !

Continue com as aulas sensei
Execellent tips :)
sensei what's the differance of chudan uke / uchi ude uke
No koshi or hip action? Full body potential is not being fully utilized - correct?
great master great
Excellent! ;)
I have a question! Please if you could help me out- when you do the blocks for e.g the gedan barai and shuto uke, we actually hear the movement. Even when my sensei does this its the same.

i'm here because my green belt exam is in 3 hours
how do you do that wind sound every time you do those moves master?"
I may be wrong but looks like there are also (at least) partly cosmetic wind sounds added later.

loooooool you block with the bone (no good :))) an good block should be done with the muscles what if someone attaks you with maoashi ciudan???
The blocking techniques are, maybe, good in theory but I have yet to see those blocking techniques actually used in sparing, by anyone.
i actually use that kind of block on fending myself againts a street thug. gladly it helped a lot lol.
It's always a block, then hit.
You won't get an answer because there isn't one.
thanks i can finnaly beat a bully up
CRAZYHYBRID PHANTOM these aren't punches they are blocks
how did it go?
I LOVE YOU SAR MY NAME IS RITURAJ SARMAH
hahahaha!!!!!
Po
😡😡😡
boo
EWRY BLOCK WAS NOT GOOD SHOW WERY BAD
@SphinX FizA you mean "wery bad"
No wonder the Japanese took their inside knowledge and left people to flounder around. People the trouble with these arts is that they only teach one part of the arts and wrong.
Useless and waisting time for students
Kata's are useless.
