André Bertel - No escape, no taisabaki in Gohon Kumite! 

Yep, I'm agree.

100%

Be no there

Excellent travail OSS Sensei respect 🙏🙏👏👌

Yeah for sure mate. btw, how do u recommend i start my face conditioning journey?

well not knowing your type of conditioning or training methods and how many real situations that you were in, cant really say what is best .. it would need to be a 1 on 1 evaluation.. but i can give you some training tips that can help .. build your neck muscles (many type of exercise one of the best is what wrestlers do) , Jaw Strengthening Exercises, and strengthening your forehead ... thats a start .. of course learning to cover your face to avoid getting hit as well as learning how to roll with the punch and some other aspects .. but in the event you do get hit your chances of getting knocked out lessens.. namaste@@matefx

They get bruises because they don't do the uke correctly. I think he means that uke is not blocking but intercepting. In Japanese uke means to receive and not to block. so if you receive the strike from your oponent corectly you will intercept it and redirect it outward without trying to entirely block it.

C est andre bertel, tu aurais l honneur de t entrainer avec lui... il faut dire ca

So, you don't have a clue then

Thank you very much!

Go No Sen est parfait si tu arrives à détruire le membre attaquant en frappant un tendon par exemple. Ensuite tu n'as plus qu"à "cueillir" ton attaquant...

You cannot understand that Karate is a long term training; so this is kihon; a base; then the other. Centuries ago; martial arts was only couple of techniques repited over and over along 10 years; when that person hits you just killed you

If you attend André sensei's seminars you will notice that he teaches exactly that. ;-)

@@olliwaa He literally uses the 'Upper/Rising block, as a STATIC BLOCK in this very video. He's teaching, in his dojo, in this clip. So it would appear you are lying.

Patrick macarthy sorted this shit out years ago

@@666Havers I know, I trained with him for two years.

​@@Zachorazor1 Você não entende a metodologia do karatê. Para um mesmo movimento, você aprofunda cada vez mais a interpretação. A escola de goju ryu foi a que melhor sistematizou esse processo. Nas demais, você tem que proucurar descobrir quase que sozinho.

What's the matter if so?

Is the way Shotokan is but now is a bit diluted due to the incorporation of children so no more emphasis on bags; makiwara; be stronger etc

He isn’t British I think he’s from New Zealand? We use to have a lot of poor instructors do this in the U.K. bak in the day. I always found it hilarious to see a native speaker impersonating the Japanese. I believe they think it makes them looking authentic because they speak like Japanese instructors with poor English!
