Team Kata + Bunkai UNSU by JAPAN - FINAL 21st WKF World Karate Championships 

Most difficult thing in Unsu is 360 degrees jump and they have done it beautifully!!

That movement of holding one guy and kicking the other one was my favorite...

one hell of a performance! i wonder how long it took them to perfect it like that! a kata that require that level of skill and body condition..impressive

Why do people think that Katas are used in a fight? Clearly they never tried to learn the art. Kata translates to form, which means "formation". The point of a Kata is to teach you to practice footwork, a combination of strikes, blocks and kicks, in FORMATION in order to train your body to do it naturally as second nature. It's NOT meant to be used in a fight. Do boxers draw a line in the street with chalk and shadow box with their toes touching the line in a fight? Do soldiers use sim rounds in the battlefield? NO it's a form of training to make what you learn become second nature. By the time you become a 1st dan black belt, you will punch straighter and faster than you use to, your kicks will be direct and quicker than they use to, and your blocks will become instinct, and you will know which parts of the human anatomy to target to survive a dangerous situation. You won't dish out a kata to survive. You make the art second nature, embed the knowledge and training into your sub-concious mind that way you won't think to use it, you will simply do it naturally.

Great art work and pretty good timing.... Lots of discipline and practice....

So much style in this kata.

karate do of japan team is the top of the world' karate-do.

I like to read the comments about people whining "Karate kata is shite! it's useless! people don't act like that on real fights!" It just makes me laugh they forgot Karate was once called "Bloody Sport" and was changed to be more safe. Those people forgot how hard is it and how amazing traditional Karate is.

Goosebumps!!

Amazing! Great Kate and Bunkai demonstration. Oss.

Very Nice job

It's so amazing! "Good job".

The performance is very impressive, so much control and grace, however, I feel that the bunkai is not within the realms of realism... Too flashy.

Jesse Enkamp? Aren't you the Karate Jesse guy?

is that yori ashi before the final jump correct (2:05)?

Good

bravo God bless!! osu

supper

When is the movie in theaters?

Suggest that Olympic karate look at this for their sport competition. Entertaining skilled application with traditional performance Unify the sport, teach it in camps, select a team from different countries

2:05 😱

4:56 😱😱😱😱❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️

восхитительно, посмотрел два раза

XMA bunkai, execution is great though.

I know unsu kata from orange belt now. I know unsu kata

Krl essa foi demais

You are not allowed to need more than 5 minutes so it’s perfectly

Josss

What about shotokan karate master gichin funakoshi

Bajigur keren

very god

what is there names?

Jesse Enkamp does your website sell black Gi’s

I never really understood mainland karate - I mean don't get me wrong its beautiful and powerful in its own right - but Okinawan Mastubayashi Ryu, Shorin Ryu, Goju Ryu and Uechi Ryu have a more practical application - but thats just my opinion.

OSS

Anjirr kompak banget

Is that Wado ryu style of Unsu ?

2:02

oke

dat play dead doe!

I am the USA karate champion

Ooss

Rather too insulting but you can't really blame those who do criticise as 'shite' 'unreal' and 'delusionary' . This nonsense is trotted out year after year. The attacks are delivered in such a basic fashion, and like automatons, the defense so often uses the advanced techniques available in these advanced kata, in a depressingly step1 step 2 step 3 type format and then continuously compensates with wildly gymnastic manoeuvres that are nowhere in the kata, bare no relation to it and would be completely unnecessary if the kata were to be applied with some thought as to what the techniques available could actually do. And to top it all, the one truly visually spectacular manoeuvre that Unsu is known for: the 360 degree jump/kick let's call it, is treated in exactly the same way as for Kanku Sho: a 180 degree jump/ kick. Of course there is a lot to admire in the the athleticism and the technical excellence in both the performance of the kata and the bunkai. It takes time, effort, and dedication as well as a nurturing of natural physical ability, to achieve such a level as is clearly shown. Such a shame then, like so many of the kata performed at this level in this type of competition, that the bunkai as such, is limited in vision and a appears a slave to theatricality rather than an insight into the potential lethal practicality. Just one example: being picked up bodily and lifted over head, the attacker flings his legs as high up as possible, this making the throw look even more spectacular. Competition has it's plus points, but take it for what it is. I can see Olympic flag waving in the none too distant future and then we before we know it, it will have gone the way of judo; sport only. Then further down the line teams being awarded points for artistic interpretation as in figure skating, gymnastics, or synchronised swimming..... What's martial about that?

@Jim Little Was it really made to be serious? It's a competition, and it's impossible to win without making some cinema. You need to impress everybody in the stadium, not only the judges. Technically, a well placed one-shot is by far more effective. But not visually impressive at all. You need to replace the things in their context, right man?

360 degree "jump" has never been in that kata. Aweful.

osu

Not for me.

Amazing!!!

yes!!! best male bunkai!!!!! go!!!! im a JKA member in phil cebu U.C chapter.
