It was a pity he was so arrogant about Funakoshi's funeral and boycotted that - losing his access to the Funakoshi family, his senior instructors and the SHOTOKAN after 1957... his "junior" style never progressed much after that... NHKK/JKA will always be a poorer copy of his senior's technique...

Oshiro sensei is my Master, one off the best Kobudo master in the world. He have visited my dojo twice in India. A very humble & simple character.. Osu..
What Bo Staff opponent is not going to recover after he strikes? Sure, if he thrusts and does nothing else, he just waits to get hit. This isn't realistic. Staff gives you distance and allows you to sweep leg and keep opponent off balance while you set up next strike, block or recover.
I’m def late to this but can confirm. At the beginning, beflre he strikes the voice (that speaks french, which is my native language) tells what he’ll do, "attack to the knee", etc. This is all done with demonstrating and learning in mind on the tonfa’s side.
You can easily defeat a Bo with the Tonfa using these methods correctly.. he's demonstrating a few striking techniques that coincide with the kata. Each master interprets the techniques slightly different, these are derived from Matayoshi style Kobudo and its offshoots. These are just basic blocking and counter striking methods..You can obviously do more too but these are crucial to know against the Bo..
Where did this guy Bob buy his black belt because it was never awarded, what was wrong with KATA, EVERYTHING please stop although I will use this in my teaching to show my students how not to do IATA.
NICE SIMPLE MOVEMENTS ,OR I MIGHT SAY AS SIMPLE AS YOU CAN GET WITH A SIX FOOT FIGHTING STAFF COMING AT YOU.NO SHOWY MOVES AND AS CLOSE TO REALISM AS YOU CAN GET WITH SAFETY IN MIND.
Does Oshiro sensei KNOW that you copied several contents from his DVD's? Ever met him and trained in a stage with him? Or do you just promote him? the music is not the original one - and it looks like being filmed from a TV screen ;-). Little bit poor, isn't it?
