@@gm-kenshitousen-blindartst5030 I, do karate am I valid?

@@gm-kenshitousen-blindartst5030 ok sir

Cool story.

@@bUtMyRiGhTs you jealous?

You are very much right sir, the black wearing kid is doung a freestyle and the while gimono kid is working a traditiinal bojutsu, so im with on the fact that its not fair

2nd guy was a baton twirler. First guy traditional 2nd guy Hollywood!

Sorry but there is nothing traditional about any of this. Traditional bo kata does not require you to "power up" your arm before starting. 01:29 Frankly all of this is a disrespectful americanised caricature of traditional Eastern martial arts. It's like taking a temple and slapping a Mcdonald sign on it.

It’s never too late. I was 10 when I started and just got back into it at a blue belt level at the age of 35. I’m learning bo staff and escrima now

I can advise tang soo do if it’s in your area it’s the traditional and overal better version on taekwondo do combining Chinese Korean and Japanese arts in one

The "robot moves" were part of a traditional form, with proper technique. The second kid was doing 90% showmanship.

now put someone from this competition in a sparring agaisnt someone who doesnt train nothing at all to see if this is not an art of combat

Combat? I didnt c no fight

☯️

I think this is an XMA tournament. (Extreme martial arts) it is based off intensity, technique, and difficulty

its a dance

That Is Not Kata it has no relationship to Ryukyu Kobudo it all fake frauds

dude. the first guy! camera right, watch his family. as his...i gotta assume uncle, walks in MID SHOWCASE. and then watch the rest of the background. everyone here, reading this. it exists outside the fight. everything is everything. you can watch as the 2nd guy has a completely disorderly family, except they arn't there.

2nd: I cannot believe you all watched this and didn't recognize it. the background. situational awareness.

3rd. If you didn't realize the background before this. Well. Good luck with your fun fight games.

You’re right this isn’t kobudo. It’s xma and it’s pretty dang impressive. Kobudo and xma are both amazing arts but can’t really be compared because the focus and purpose is so completely different.

Very true bro. The bo’s they have are very light they wont be able to do much and spin around with the thick and heavy rokushaku

What im sayin

Yes

Nope

The Duke of the Skull awwww someone is jealous awwwww

@@TheInfantry98 Noooo, I am not jealous. I may have been too harsh, I have studyed for over 40 years and I am trained in the old ways and don't enter competions. I don't agree with the throwing weapons up in the air, in a battle that would get you killed really fast. Even though I don't agree with the "light weapons" used and the "CONAN" TYPE yelling that holds no purpose.I might go and watch a competion if it was in my area. MAYBE..... I COULD LEARN SOMETHING NEW ABOUT THESE COMPETIONS, AND IT MAY ENHANCE MY TRAINING. ( It still takes hard training to get to where they are). 👍

The Duke of the Skull bro it doesn’t matter if someone throws a bo staff cuz nowadays people use guns that fire bullets at over 1000-2500 FPS. Sorry bro but no one fights the traditional way anymore. It’s antiquated and boring AF

@@TheInfantry98 very, very, true!! In battle you use your best option, you want to be the one that lives. Just imagine if you could go back in the past and offer someone like a Samurai the choice of a staff or sword OR pistol or rifle ( and he knew how to use it). He would give you a stupid look and take the pistol or rifle 😀.Your life is on the line, you use the best option! I read years ago of a black belt in New York that carrys a pistol. He said it stops the fight right there and then. You don't get sued in court for defending yourself. I also like to read about and look at gun catalogs (even though I know very little about guns 😀).If they are going to practice with martial arts weapons, they should be real techniques and weapons or at least authentic weight weapons, since they are suppose to be doing katas that represent real fighting. M. Angelou the poet said once that someone broke into her house, she was in bed with a pistol and asked, " Is it worth dying over? " She said they left quickly. I am 100% for the rights of gun owners, gun control is not working for them in England. I take it that you were in the military. From the deepest of my heart and for my ancestors back to Scotland, thank you for giving your time to serve our country and to protect it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

how are they entitled? just because it isn’t traditional doesn’t mean it isn’t cool or amazing
