I find it interesting and practical, even pragmatic. Very energetic, no extra spinning, hands always in close contact with jo. Side blocks are something I like very much. This is real combat jo, no doubt. Thank you for sharing this short but valuable film.
It’s easy to overlook. This drill executes 220 blocks/strikes and takes about 5 minutes to complete. Doing it 5 times takes nearly half an hour and if you are doing it right will give you a great workout and is one of the best ways to strengthen your ukes and tsukis.
For bo, just find a length of iron or steel at a hardware or auto supply. Tanbo hojo undo can also be performed with a good heavy pair of sai or youth baseball bats.
At least this shows more of the versatility of nunchaku than the spinning strike! I know a kata that comes from Fumio Demura nunchaku that shows a lot of blocks and traps that you want see in the movies!
sexy time. getting me all psyched up now. Kyoshi Cline and I plan on getting together this summer and working on this one. Great working with you at the seminar!
Howdy! I am pushing 70 years old and lived in Asia almost 50 years. I lived on Okinawa and studied with the so-called high Masters of Shorin Ryu. One Master particularly disliked Chinese martial artists and had a rabid racial dislike of them! JUMP! After figuring it out I went to TAIWAN FREE CHINA 1978. With Chinese letters of Introduction from my Teachers in California. Then I learned that these Okinawans sneaked off to Taiwan and paid huge sums of cash money to explain to them the kata bunkai that they never learned about and lacked the foundation. Yeah! Watching big shot 6-7-8-9 degree Black Belt Red belt “ masters” getting their asses kicked in GM HUNG’s old Di Wha Jieh dojo was shit loads of fun! Especially because I was a white American who was despite my eagerness to learn in Okinawa, was disappointed and dismissed by the arrogant Okinawan who pretended to know great “ secrets” but got slapped around silly by 2yr green belts in the Old Quarter
I trained in boxing for a few years not competing but to Amatur competitive level I agree with you hitting open hand is safer and Arguably faster I regularly practice open hand on my heavy bag ive also done hand conditioning exercises over the past several years just incase i decided to go the punching my opponent route I just always loved punching which is why I personally cross trained in boxing aswel as Okinawan karate 👊
I can't ever imagen how a looser fist could be safer on the wrists/knuckles... Much rather stick to open hand which many don't know how to fully utilize.. Observe different mma hand striking & experiment on various surfaces & it'll start making sense.. Only fist striking I feel good about are back fists
Whoever is doing the makiwara needs more training. Too extended, lower body and arms not lined up, elbows protruding out, shoulders up, etc. Not being negative just making observations.
It’s good to be skeptical and I understand you have no reason to trust me. I had trust in my instructors. If you don’t trust the technique then take away one thing: every bare knuckle punch you throw in the gym or on the street has a significant risk for injury. When you train, it’s easy for your larger muscles to develop faster than your wrists putting your wrists and hands at risk. Balance wrapped/gloved bag work with bare knuckle work. Hit both hard objects and soft objects and study the differences in your body mechanics. Be technical as well as physical but never one more than the other.
Truthfully Awesome 🔥 I can see so many grappling with strikes bunkai in this style of nihanshi kata Motobu choki considered Nihanshi to be not just a kata within a style of karate but a style of karate all of its own In general terms we karate people do tend to underestimate the importance of Nihanshi ..
Years ago I began studying karate. We were taught by a 3rd degree head instructor and first degree black belt. When the head instructor demonstrated sparing against the first dan, he started bouncing on his feet, throwing jabs and crosses. No karate thrust punches or back fists. The first Dan tried defending with his karate style inside and outside blocks. He was getting tagged all the time. So when it came down to fighting, our head instructor abandoned all of his karate training and used western boxing techniques instead. After that class, I quit karate, bought a book on kickboxing, and started working on a heavy bag. I never regretted it!
I believe you because experienced this too. When I received my shodan (1st degree) I was told by my instructor : Congratulations, you’re ready to begin learning (karate). If you are learning more from a book than from an instructor, you are probably right to leave that instructor.

I practice the nunchaku and I like this concept very much. The catch in that nunchaku vise grip is quite painful. I tried it on a few in class and it was not making anyone happy ... So you did say something in your intro that I really hope you will elaborate on. You mentioned 2 nunchaku kata? Are these from Master Oyata ? I would be very interested to see the second kata if you would be willing to demonstrate. Thanks for sharing this
I miss my RyuTe training. The only reason I'm not training now is because of a series of back injuries, but as SOON as I regain the function in my legs, I'll be getting back into it! In the meantime, I guess it's all videos for me! Thanks for sharing!
Hello, I enjoyed your teaching very much. I am a student of Torite Jutsu, and am under the direct training of Master Tom Muncy, whom trained with Master Oyata for many years. He is also a teacher who teaches without revealing everything. I believe that this way creates a learning process which puts the emphasis on the student. Some strive for deeper understanding and some do not. We do Naihanchi Shodan almost identical, with a few small differences that I plan to look into to discover why that is the case. I have been told that great martial art is a like a cup of strong black coffee. When this Master teaches, some student will have strength and will to practice and slowly the Master will fill their cup with strong black coffee and one day the student becomes a Master with perhaps not a full cup yet but understands that only time, practice and the evolution of thought will fill it. Other students will see how difficult it is to become as your Master is, and will leave. They commonly begin teaching and whatever was lacking from their other training they simply added water until the cup was full. My point is many, many schools teach this watered down version which benefits no one except for the instructor's bank account. I appreciate you sharing some of your strong black coffee, and I look forward to more content to examine. 👍👍
