The Scariest Karate KATA | 最も恐ろしい空手型 | 沖縄空手 | Sadayuki Taira | 平良貞行先生 

Omg those are not sound effects...that whipping sound you here is pure internal power👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾That’s years of dedication and commitment to his art. It’s a privilege to be able to even see this from the comfort of your own home. Thank you so much for sharing this 😊Much Respect

First studied this kata twenty years ago....but am only now seeing it's true power. Thank you uploader 🙏🏻❤️💪🏻

There is some serious Energy flowing through this man. His Aura is even more Amazing.

Thank you very much for this wonderful series. Even though I practice Muay Thai, cant help but to to feel extremely attracted and fascinated by such a beautiful art.

素人コメントです…大会などで見る一流選手の型も美しいですが、平先生の型は手足という「武器を持っている」感がします。

Been practicing Shotokan for almost 10 years and I think this was a great video for seeing a few fundamentals most karate schools practice, put into use by a master. I especially like that you can see the master's relaxed but practiced execution of this kata. My first sensei always used to tell me, "You start off slow and deliberate to learn. Then, you move quickly with power in your kata." The master in this video is, in my opinion, the perfect example of what happens when you apply those in daily practice for years.

Such an honor to get an up-close look at the forms being performed with this level of skill.

I’ve trained in Muay Thai Kickboxing for years. Never really been impressed by other stand up arts, until I seen this guy. Makes me want to train in Karate now.

It's important to point out that what we see here is mostly kata (form) and this is not to be confused with bunkai (application). For many years I thought the kata was the way they wanted me to fight - and I lost fights as a result! But then I understood the concept of bunkai - applications and variations and modifications and tailoring what I learned in the kata that can be applied in a real self-defense situation. I lost the need for "how I look" and focused on "how can I make this work" , and it worked! This is a great video showing the difference between form and application - or at the very least it's a good place to start. Train always and stay safe 🙏

Goju ryu is an awesome martial art style, learn to become a better human and develop in mind body and spirit

I have studied and practiced Hyashi Shito Ryu for over 20 years. I learned and still practice Seiunchin and Seipai but never learned Kurunfa. This video conveyed so much valuable information so succinctly, I am in awe. Thank you to all involved.

I was just gonna skip the video but so glad I watched it. The man is very practical and straight forward. He doesn't try to give how mystic karate is or whatever but emphasises rational way if putting the art in practise. I really respect the man. When he said it doesn't matter if u do 60 or 70 years but focus on doing day by day little by little. And he said not to think of Karate as difficult but the best thing u could do in life. It is kinda true aswell. Exercise is very important. This mindset is so important. Respect. His students are blessed.

These goju ryu guys are hardcore. Respect.

I find it fascinating to see individual movements in the Kata. After watching competition versions of these Kata where speed is upmost key, sometimes you can't see the intended movements or their functions. Good video.

75 kg grip strength at his age is amazing !! And what a scarry performance !! 😅

He's got an incredible chillness and his energy feels very grounded. I really dig what he said about making it part of your life, it's a good reminder that we're all learning this stuff together.

Taira sensei! One of the best! Hope to train with him again. A real gentleman and true Budoka. Nice man, amazing Karate.

every kata done with full power and technique is scary

An excellent performance of true traditional Goju-Ryu. The scariest thing for me is all the ignorant comments.

So wonderful to see how technology today has allowed us to experience the true Masters; thank you so very much.

We have this kata in Isshin Ryu, and I love how rooted and powerful it is. Great video of original goju ryu version, thanks!

9:10 The fundamental lesson, respect 🙏

For a man that's 66 years old he moves very well. I just witnessed the true power of Karate.

The beauty of Okinawa karate, this reflects karateka's image and confidence. Never mess with karate masters.

I love traditional karate. Spent 15 years in Seido/Kyokushin. I only wish they had more grappling. Good thing I wrestled through college. Judo and BBJ were easy to adapt to and rounded out my knowledge base but I still like going back to my old Seido juku for fundamentals and sparring.

I began studying Okinawa style in 1967 and after learning other martial arts styles have always known Okinawa style to be the "POWER" style. It has taken me through problems in flying colors "I Love It"~!

The Kata is a beautiful art lost in this new "MMA" craze. True master, I envy your skill.

Breathing & exhaling true old world chi. Awesome video and purity from a master. 🙏

Excellent technique

I’ve trained Isshynryu my whole life and this was my favorite kata as a lower cue but seeing the Goju Ryu version is very interesting. the first difference I noticed was the breathing wasn’t as intense as our version or they don’t incorporate the breathing rules we do. Also the kata is done a lot more gentle than ours. Love it!

Love this. Traditional HARD STYLE.

Great video, I especially loved the part when he talked about relaxing the body when punching.

I see how now - basic core of all useful art's do have similar roots . It's been an honor to watch this kata with extreme joy ,awe,also respect!!!! I sincerely thank you.🇺🇸🙂

Goju Ryu is the most beautyful style. Seienchin is the most beautyful Kata.

7:29 transferred power with gripping feet...the whole ground shook..even the camera

MMA and REAL unbastardized martial sciences are not comparable. They have nothing to do with each other. This translation of the kata is masterful and awesome. People stop comparing apples and oranges they're both just GREAT ! 🐅

The advice he gives just prior to "Kururunfa" is extremely true! I had a point where I had not practiced for a month or so and it showed in my day to day well-being.

Okinawa karate is badass

I just recently picked up Karate, and even though I try to keep my motions sharp, if I punch or thrust at full strength, there's definitely a recoil that bounds back. But the way he performs his kata, there's no recoil at all. Just imagining the force he could channel into a target of his kata... Insane.

So powerful you can hear every strike. Good example of how karate and exercise help with health and age.

Perhaps the title of this video is wrong but the criticism of Okinawan karate is wrong. It most definitely can teach effective and strong striking techniques as well as balance and discipline. As a foundation it’s an excellent way to learn to fight. Once proficient learn Jiu Jitsu and be creative with karate! Later in life it can be used as a recreational activity much like Tai Chi for the rest of your life.

Real Goju Ryu ....OSS 💪

I hold a San Dan in Goju- Ryu and I will say that some of the Kara's are very different!! This Kata was taught before Purple Belt was achieved!🤔 The System was Changed into Shorei Goju years ago.👍

I appreciate seeing more traditional martial art videos. MMA has been an very important part of the development of the martial arts in the last twenty five years or so, but it has come to overshadow the value of traditional arts, which is about more than success in the Octagon.

I was in Go Ju Ryu full contact karate, it was very practical for street fights.

I am constantly amazed at what some of these old school masters can do. It takes a real martial artist to appreciate and visualize this form and how it is applies in an active scenario. The details are in the subtleties of each move where you will only feel it's true power when you are on the receiving end. 2nd DAN tkd black belt with mma and Muay Thai experience here and I'm always looking to learn and share knowledge with others who are open to learn and share. We need more people like him to teach the world.

Both beautiful and intimidating! Daniel Son does this Kata Seienchin in one of the movies. We always used to laugh that he was doing it wrong. arigato gozaimasu

Excellent sensei, old is gold traditional is always traditional Goju ryu

I love this kata. It's beautiful.

Beautifully deadly demonstration.

the sound of kimono during movements is amazing

Awesome performance and form. Thanks

same kata performed in karate kid 3 in the ending tournament

A great Sensei who enjoys being a student!!

Looking Strong Taira Sensei 👍🏼

I am a Shotokan man,,but I LOVE this Gojo-Ryu

66 years old and he has full power! I was very impressed.

Lmao at "No, we have the same structure as a human" clearly an alien 1:34

I study Wado-Ryu, so the underlying principles are very different from what we do. I would like to understand kaisetsu for these kata. The Sensei demonstrating obviously has a deep understanding of his art, and seems like a man I would like to have met.

kata is a demonstration of concept, one practicing kata to capture that concept to absorb and adapt for his/her use

Прекрасный кихон традиционного каратэ мастерство вдохновляет к познанию пути с началом и в стремление к бесконечному совершеству .

Whoever edited this, this kata uses changes on the back foot(cat stance) to support the weight when stepping back or to the side, in the the future please leave out the close-up shots as they detract from a very crucial part of the kata.

Insane power. Very cool.

Hide balls and holes. I SAY PERFECT thats the best quality self defense shotokan has a gojuryu kata in one of the belt tests......i studied shotokan and i remember this kata

Taira Sensei is pure strong!!

Pretty amazing 👍

As a practitioner of Okinawan Isshinryu , we do a similar kata ( dervived from Gojuryu also ) called Seuchin, created by Tatsuo Shimbuku. It's the only hand kata that employs no kicks.

I love seeing all the little differences in the kata, but I really want to see the bunkai to see why they are different... would you show a few of the bunkai and how they differ?

What explosive execution! I have never seen this form demonstrated before, exceptional!

Beautiful performance ( the camera not showing all the movements , omits legs too often ) . and what I wish to ad is to underline how rich is the assortment of combination movements. In the reality of fight the instinctive reaction should bring the automatic response . Than the response could be devastating . This maybe the reason that in many so called tournaments the real masters do not participate . Basically the kara-te is NOT a sport . It is too deadly . The kata is not fighting . It is practicing , exercising. Of course we 've all known that , but I have had to say that . Sorry.

These guys spend the entire life practicing martial arts and I which I have the time. The performance are incredible.

It was very interesting thank you for sharing

3 minutes in and I was already too scared and I could not continue watching this video. It was so scary! This kata is very scary.

Νever seen in my life such a strong Seipai kata . Oss.

Fantastic

Beautiful stuff, making your body into armor. That's why it takes a life time, this is not sport, it's a discipline.

Kata powerful punches I wouldn't mess with him.

The Karate Kid Part 3 Kata, Sensie Miyagi teaches Daniel's first kata in the mountain..

Très intéressant, les vidéos de cette plage ; merci.

I have low imagination, so I hoped I'd see the bunkai of the katas

That clenching thing, that is a VERY EXPENSIVE tips back there. Clench your stomach and just swing. Thank you Sensei!

Goki/Akuma of Street Fighter.

I’m still studying this kata on my dojo with my Sensei crazy stuff the movements are too perfect and I’m having a hard time gasping them all, I’m sure I’ll figure it out

I was fortunate to learn old school Okinawa karate. I am now 38 my body is hard as a rock. I remember when I was 11 crying limping home training was no joke. You would get sued if you trained students like that lol. I will train my son in a few years. He is now 5 and doing jujitsu but when he is 12 I am gonna pour it on!

沖縄空手も本当に凄いですね。 自分の父は空手師範でしたが、和道空手の故鈴木辰夫氏に師事し、貫手からあらゆる鍛錬をしていたそうです。 当時の組み手は和道では「フリー」と言われ顔面、金的等、ルール無用の何でもありの攻撃だった為、 落伍者も多かったそうです。

Dang! That is power right there

Those techniques need years no a lifetime to master ... It's very beautiful movement and deadly

I love how the kata is slowed down. I can see the power of every move very impressive

Yeah, this is actually the Grappling Kata of Isshinryu Karate. I think the name literally means "Grapple and Destroy" in English. There are several devastating throws and standing grappling techniques hidden in the moves of this kata. It's very good for teaching basic throws to light green belt students.

I love these videos but the angry guitar riffs are annoying.

I notice the difference in speed of combinations in the Katas - I started to learn Shukokai Karate and the katas are very similar, just the combinations are faster with only slight pauses between each to re-centre. Thanks for a good video! Oss!

Every karate video ever, have an intro with people dong some moves, sparing, or being hit with something, a few minuts of talking about how tough some old guy is, then the old guy being hit with blunt object on a piticular ariea, followed by more talking and hitting old people or their students. Non of this is in any particular order but you will see similar patterns in these videos

鬼

Stop editing every5 seconds so you can see the kata??

took reg karate when i was a child but never made it past my yellow belt. then later when i was 19 i found parker chinese kenpo and got my 1st dan. and then years later when i was 27 met this military man that was a neighbor of mine back in utah. and he started teaching me some aikido stuff. then we moved on from that to this program he had bought called rat system by vunak. rapid assault tactics for short. and then i met another buddy that started teaching me to box. and started teaching me muay thai. but never finished it yet. but i am getting ready to in 1 month going to start my martal ats up again. and this time im going to get a 2nd black belt in a different style called seibukan jujutsu. and then after i get a black. ill start krav maga. and work towards a black belt in that. and then planning to move back into muay thai. and do shoshin ryu and thinking when i finish those styles im thinking about adding 2 more panantukan. and white tiger kung fu.

I can see a lot of grabs, arm manipulations and breaks in the form. He's very powerful.

Yeah, this is good Gojuryu technique. I like this video. The demonstration of the Ox Bow strike is neat. I've seen in from my own Isshinryu Sensei years ago. Spear Hand is good to the throat or maybe solar plexus if your Gojuryu/isshinryu fist can't reach the target.

well they might be scary for some, but they sure very exhausting to do. keep up the good work!

Lovely video. Karate will always be timeless. We sometimes put it alongside MMA in discussions but they are different things all together. Both can work equally well in self defense. A dog is good on its feet where it can move and bite very effectively. A cat maybe less so but it can still fight well even on it's back.

studied Shotokan in college club
