This is how I believe everyone should be learning Karate, by experiencing it. When you learn this way, you truly get to become intimate with and trust your technique and ability, that's my thinking at least. I wish I could find a teacher that would teach this way as Sensei Asai. Sensei Andre if ever your are in PA USA I would love to host you and be your student even for a day. Osu.
Thank you very much. My father and all four siblings are scattered across the US: Dad In Northern California, sister in Utah, brother and sister in Texas and brother in South Carolina. So I’ll definitely be back in the US at some point: post corona. Greetings and all the best from Oita City, Japan. AB
I am amazed by ASAI Sensei's legs. Not his leg techniques, but the health of his legs, even at 70. What is it? How can a student preserve the legs over time? I am in my late 30s and already I can feel that my knees and hips are not the same. My uncle has trained for his whole life and is in his mid sixties and his legs prevent him from moving with much of the smoothness of his youth when he was fast and explosive like this. Is it genetical? Or what is it? I want to be like that in 3o years too.
Asai Sensei spent a lot of his self-training time working on leg strength and all of his classes featured this training also. One thing that he didn't practice so often in his older years were horizontal kicking techniques. His main keriwaza were mae-geri (both keage and kekomi) ushiro-geri, mikazuki-geri and ura mikazuki-geri. He reserved the 'less natural' techniques -- like mawashi-geri and the two forms of yoko-geri - for 'special occasions' to avoid wear and tear on the body. Also he performed them differently, to protect his knees and hips (there is an article about this somewhere on my blog). About his genetics....... Yes, this cannot be denied. My instructor here in Kyushu, who went to university (Takushoku Daigaku) with Asai Sensei, and graded up to Nanadan under him and Nakayama Sensei, said he was referred to as 'the one in a million' amongst the upper echelons of the JKA.

oss sensei i really liked the video i admire you a lot as well as i also like the sensei asai you show true karate one day i will meet you how is your sensei training going?
Greetings Neill. Asai Sensei did 鶴翼二段 (Kakuyoku Nidan) I did 雷光 (Raiko) nicknamed 'Kaminariarashi' by Asai Sensei, as his nickname at university was 'thunderstorm'. Kindest regards from Oita City
My sensei was Asai Sensei and he had great respect for Kase Sensei. While these masters had very different physiques, the origin of their karate was the same. In saying that, one must optimize one's own karate based on one's individuality. This is BUDO/BUJUTSU karate. Osu and kindest regards from Oita City, Japan. AB
You seem to be a very visual guy. I don't know how, but it seems like you lost a lot of your lightness of movement in the past few years. You look more stiff to me than in older videos like these.

It's a fantasy. That's why there's only compliance from the human punch bag.

I would love to learn this subsection style of shotokan. Way more ruthless and practical for self defense than I'm used to seeing
Asai Sensei's karate was BUJUTSU in his own words. It was and is true karate. Thank you for your comments
What is the name of the beautiful kata ? elements of Unsu and Niju Shiho perhaps? really powerful moves, thank you!OSU
Greetings Neill.
