@@lh3428 no these are Called bullshido actors that pretend their martial art can stop anyone, my point was any UFC fighter would leave any on those guys in a wheelchair if they fought because the bullshido didn’t work
In `1953, I was stationed in Kadena AFB, Okinawa. I took Judo and Karate then. My instructors in Judo were, the Chief of Police Mr. Yamakawa, Mr. Ohama, Second in command in the Police Department, their instructors of the police at that time: Mr. Tomasito in Judo, a huge man, and Mr. Miyasato, a 7th dan, in the art of Karate. I was priviledged to have been invited by Mr. Yamakawa to continue my Judo training with the Naha police, my instructor then Mr. Tomasito, and then, was introduced to Karate, my instructor Mr. Miyasato. These happened during my las three months of my stay in Okinawa. I was in the Air Force, stationed at Kadena AFB. The reason these people took to me was because I was short in hight, 5'3"" tall, like them and I was extremely fast in my movements. I became a Brown Belt during a tournament in which I bested two American Marines and then lost to an Okinawan young black belt. I got my belt though. I cherish that year and a half stationed there and to have been taught the Martial Arts by those wonderful and professional Okinawans. I am 91 years old and I still practice my Katas. TSgt USAF Retired.
You are what my generation calls "The Real Deal". Glad you posted your story friend. And many more years of training to you.....keep going and don't let anyone every tell you that you are too old. Training as you do it with Kata keeps you young! Thanks again :-)
What a wonderful remembrance! When l was on my high school cross country and track team, a teammate and good friend Steve, was a senior ( l was a Junior) and a brown belt in the Okinawan style. He used to spar with someone from his dojo who was a black belt. He would always tell me, “He kicked my a- -! He would eventually become a third degree black belt and teach nurses the art. Another friend of mine was 6th degree black belt in hop kido. He got out of the federation and formed his own school. He once competed in, l believe, Korea and took second place! He also sparred with Bruce Lee and told me he was average, which was unbelievable to me at the time! Possibly the difference could be that Lee was not known for full contact competition, whereas my friend studied a hard form of martial arts where full contact was an essential part of the art.
I love his reply that "he don't know if he can defeat them until he actually fight". Despite being a karate master, he gives such measured and humble reply. Perhaps precisely because he is a karate master, he knows the limits of his mastery of his own art and that for every mountain, there are yet higher mountains 一山還有一山高。
I think it's just basic self-awareness. Even if you have the utmost confidence in your abilities, you should never assume that you have no equal. There are so many people out there that some of them are bound to be better than you. It is humble, but also logical and common sense.
He is old and he knows it . He wants to say that he can't fight over rounds like In boxing but no one knows what happend if he needs to serious because he got some skil and is for his age really good in form . He can do some moves but maximum 2 minutes maby
@@Spiritcr1jsher there's videos...all pre rehearsed routines lol. I'm a bit of a spoil sport or reality checker. I've boxed since I was 7. Represented uk at schoolboy level. Have since trained in Jujitsu and tried a few of these nonsense martial arts like Akido and didn't become compliant. When an instructor ordered me to go very slowly and with 5% force I asked him why? When he said for training purposes I told him I didn't believe his super slow motion wrist grabs would work. When he tried to grab my wrist I threw the other hand and easily hit his chin the following punches he couldn't defend....this nonsense doesn't work. And will get those trying it badly hurt.. Everything I did if I did in boxing and Jujitsu would have been handled...these people are play fighting. And will get people like the O.P absolutely battered. These people are living in a fantasy world
My sensei was an old man, nearly 87. The power and technique he exerted without force was incredible. Respect to him was not because of his age, respect to him was of his vast knowledge of efficient execution. RIP!
Efficiency of motion....as he said when he was young he used force. Now that he is old, he fights smarter.....Efficiency of both motion and leverage. Strange they don't teach this at first
I'm 64 & out of shape. In my late teens through my late 30's I studied various diciplines of martial arts on & off but mostly on. I have not trained for 20 yrs for various resons. This vidio encouraged me to begin training again. Not the way I did in the day but to do what I can to improve. Thank you for inspiring me to begin again.
Te salut omule, și eu am 64! Am avut și eu traseul meu în viață și am învățat câte ceva! 🧘 Și am obținut o centură! Doar că pe alt continent și cu alte norme și limite! Un gând bun! 👍 Super tare maestrul! 👍👍👍
I’m 69 and never stopped training which got me through illness and injury including covid pneumonia ~ I’m continuing and always changing up training to prevent covid & injury - like the master says: I cannot love like I used to, the years developed ingenuity ~ the basics are always the basics & foundations to work from & develop
Wise man once say "pre rehearsed routines against non resisting opponents is useless" lol any local boxing gym or MMA gym will teach you 1000 times more than these fake pre rehearsed routines play fighting clowns
Love how he refers to tai-chi, and other forms of kung-fu. Great masters like Wong Fei-Hung, Ip Man or Bruce Lee all understood the value of various styles of martial arts and not to be bound or stuck in a pure doctrine of a single style. Fascinating.
It's gentlemen like this sensei and the respect and friendship shown by the students which make me prefer traditional martial arts over current popular disciplines. The wisdom and life philosophy are much more important to me than anything.
Only thing you can learn from these pre rehearsed routines is what doesn't work. An amateur boxer would smash all these clowns. When are people like yourself going to grow up and realise these pre rehearsed routines against non resisting opponents NEVER actually work? Do you not think if these pressure point strikes for example worked UFC fighter's earning millions wouldn't be using them? 🤔 all this lad is doing is play fighting. It's fake
He is like those ancient sages that we have read about in our sacred texts. Powerful yet so gentle. A great master, yet so humble. He simply commands so much respect. 🙏🙏🙏
This is rare. Getting wisdom from a master, that's intended for real encounters, sharing applications you don't see everyday. Highly practical, thoughtfully done, sincerely given, secrets from a master, selfless.
That's a genuine practitioner. No fancy movements, no promises of a win but certainty on the technique and the preparation of it. This is a wise man. Martial artists ALWAYS practice every single day.
Honestly the old guy didn't doo anything spectacular. Slapping a kick away with your hand? Um.. sorry that wouldn't work with a hard fast kick. He's just another phony
@@joereidy5732 Yes it would, clearly you know nothing about martial arts. He's not slapping it away, he's deflecting the attack, or parrying. A lot of karate is defence and countering.
@@acurisur its a common theme across martial arts to advise against parrying with the same side arm, as it could leave u open to a wrapping the strike around the parry and to the head though. Case in point, faking a jab for the opponent to reach out to parry and coming in with a hook, or in this case especially faking a front kick and going up top with a question mark kick in which case the parrying technique shown in the video leaving u absolutely flatlined. So yes this sensei who may or may not be a phony is certainly passing down outdated knowledge that wouldnt help you against anyone who has a decent amount of training in mma or any more modern martial arts gyms (of which there are a substantial amount nowadays)
You missed the most basic Mr MMA the blocked kick by the hand was a strike ,all relative to the force of the kick, results the damage to the leg, geez how do we learn anything try not to criticize if you don't understand, maybe you know all of what we strive to learn, every day
This teacher is authentic, and I can tell he has had sparring/fighting experience. Respect to him. I hope people learn and share his experiences. Some observations: 0:46 is the same concept as Muay Thai's use of the shin. Same as using the shin on the opponent's thigh. 2:07 works because you are jamming the kick, and not allowing the full momentum to hit you. The same concept is true for all strikes against you (including non edged weapons). Either get out of the way, or jam it up by closing the distance. In Japanese terms, this is known as maai 間合い. 8:32 "The reality often does not go according to theory." So true. That's why all martial arts used for self defense or fighting need to be pressure tested by their students. You will only learn by doing. This realization can only be discovered through moderate to hard sparring, full contact sport, or real fighting. This is why the way you practice matters just as much or more than the style you practice. 8:45 The blocking attack is seen in western boxing, too. 9:26 is off balancing. Control of one of the four corners of the torso (2 shoulders and 2 hips). This breaking of balance is a core principal in judo, too.
Yagi Sensei - the venerable Okinawan Master - A fountain of knowledge , philosophy and physics of Budo Karate .. Thanks also to Naka Sensei for exploring styles other than Shotokan , tracing the deep connect with Okinawan styles and passing it on to us .. both are true Masters - humble , articulate and technically brilliant. Osu .. respects from India
I’m 69 and never stopped training which got me through illness and injury including covid pneumonia ~ I’m continuing and always changing up training to prevent covid & injury - like the master says: I cannot move like I used to, the years developed ingenuity ~ the basics are always the basics & foundations to work from & develop
Нападающего тяни Падающего толкни.. Выверенные движения,знания- сила!! настоящий мастер не бьет людей и истинное мастерство заключается в отсутствии тебя при боевых событиях.
Un verdadero MAESTRO.... muyyyyyyy buenos sus consejos 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻...sigan subiendo vídeos de éste gran maestro,mis saludos atte desde la Patagonia norte Argentina 🇦🇷💪🏻
That kick stopping by kicking the inward of thigh near to the knee joint is almost exact the same as what muaythai fighters still doing so often nowadays. Very practical. Great stuff.
Кстати говоря, этих японских мастеров единоборства уже неоднократно разоблачали в видеороликах. Где бойцы кулачного боя, втечение пары минут отправляли в глубокий нокаут этих горе мастеров. Так что не будьте наивными и не витайте в виртуальных облаках.
Phantastic. Being several decades in martial arts, I can see even in his (slow) kata the potential how fast he could be. After such a long life being in MA it comes always to the point you know that there will be some one that might be better, but you don't know as long as you are in the fight. What a wise man.
After 54 years of practicing Goju Ryu, I finally got too old and arthritic to do more than use it for exercise and stay as limber as possible. This man reminds me a lot of my first Shihan.
This guy sounds like a real life Mr. Miyagi. That is so cool to know that he is just as focused on spiritual enlightenment and healthy personal growth.
@@IdentityCrisis1581 only if you’re off your meds. This person has worked very hard to get where he’s at and he should be respected and compared to real people.
@@rwfrench66GenX Respectfully Sir, Chojun Miyagi was the Founder of Okinawan Goju Ryu, not a "fictional character". The Gentleman shown in this video, Mr Yagi, was one of the sons of Meitoku Yagi, who began his training under Miyagi Chojun in 1924, when he was 14. He trained with Miyagi Sensei until his passing in 1953. The Miyagi Family gifted Meitoku Yagi the Gi and Belt of Miyagi Sensei. The Yagi Family Heads the Meibukan Dojo in Okinawa. There were of course, other Senior Students of Miyagi Sensei who started there own "Branches" of Goju Ryu. There is the "Shodokan" Branch, started by Higa Seiko, who began his training with Miyagi Chojun Sensei when they were both studying under Higoanna Kanryo, Founder of Naha-Te, and continued under Miyagi Chojun (Higoanna's top Student) after Higoanna's passing, and like Yagi Sensei, trained under Miyagi until 1953 as well. The Jundokan Branch was started by Miyazato Eiichi, also a Student of Miyagi Sensei, but roughly a Decade or Two younger than Yagi Sensei and Higa Sensei. There is also the Shoreikan Branch, Founded by Seikichi Toguchi, The Shobukan Branch Founded by Shinjo Masanobu Sensei, and two others as well. But ALL of these Sensei we're under Chojun Miyagi, a very "real" person, and a very "real" Master. Please note that this post was in NO way meant to be, or to sound "demeaning" in ANY way at all. It was only meant to explain that Chojun Miyagi was more than just a "character" portrayed in "The Karate Kid" by Noriyuki "Pat" Morita. An additional point I'd like to make, is that at a point in the video, you'll hear Yagi Sensei say he "Practices Sanchin every day." Sanchin Kata is considered to be the Bedrock Foundation of Okinawan Goju Ryu. A very long book could be written about just this one Kata. At the end of the video, however, the "beathing Kata" that Yagi Sensei is performing is "Tensho". Indeed, another long book could be written about this Kata, and the same could be said for ALL of the Koryo Kata, as the "Hidden Meanings" of each is beyond extensive. While Goju Ryu is (rightfully) labeled as "Karate", that term, meaning "Empty Hand" has been misinterpreted to only mean "punches and kicks". Goju Ryu is that, without a doubt, but it is also a VERY in depth grappling art. In any case, I'll stop myself now before I DO write a book and bore everyone. I hope that this post is positively received, again, it was only meant to share some knowledge, and explain Miyagi Sensei's "factual life". Thank you if you've read this far.
@@sandmanCQB8541 that’s a very lucid, well written response! Allow me to retort. I was, and still am, under the impression that the comment I replied to was referring to the fictional character Mr. Miyagi from The Karate Kid movie franchise since the author said he was like a real life Mr. Miyagi. Real life vs fictional. Does that explain my comment better?
Yes, it is best to have an older teacher. And this is not just in martial arts, it can be in problem solving, and mechanics. An older teacher has done and seen so many things in his/ her life. They have distilled what works the best and most reliably. I am this teacher's age, and loved watching the young men marvel at this teacher's techniques.
Although Yagi Sensei stated in the video the he "Practices Sanchin every day", Sanchin meaning "Three Battles", Breath, Body, Posture, or Mind, Body, Spirit, the Kata he performs at the end is actually Tensho Kata, an open hand version which has different meaning than Sanchin. BOTH very important Kata, as Sanchin is the Bedrock Foundation of Okinawan Goju Ryu.
I love the wisdom of karate, aikido etc and the style of fighting. You can also see these guys have so much fun practice it. Its a totaly different approache then boxing or mma etc. The sensei does not look like he is over 70.
👍👍👍Мастер, не только каратэ, но и джиу- джитсу Владеет, и Находится В Хорошей Физической Форме🙏!! ВСЕМ МИРА🙏!!!. ДОБРА🙏!!! Благодарю за Видео, ВСЕМ ЗДОРОВЬЯ🙏👋!!!.
One factor has interested me most with respect to Naka Sensei's journey is how surprised he is with what he has gleans from these experienced Sensei. His personal achievements aside, this may be the first time he has ever crossed the border of his Shotokan to explore world outside. This is true ShuHaRi!
Admirable maestro, Ms gusta mucho la cultura japonesa son increibles y especiales en todo y Han contribuido en mucho a la humanidad sin tanto ruido, manejo un carro japones muy bueno. Buen video gracias.
Костью по мягким еще можно понять, но если он попадет костью по кости, то не известно чья кость окажется крепче. Вообще я пришел к выводу, что если ты не спортсмен и не представитель силовых структур, то и боевые навыки самообороны не очень нужны, важнее навыки коммуникации.
At 78 I'm too slow now but studied goju ryu for some years, hard and soft. Few attacks and many defences. I also practice sanchin as part of my daily exercise routine
Many years ago studied goju ryu. He was supposedly very good and used to teach the younger boys his art. He offered to teach me saying, “You would be good for the art!” I was 5’7” and 138 lbs., and was cut up like bruce Lee, from good genetics and various athletes. I regret not accepting his offer, l was too addicted to handball and other sports. I did get into sparring some time afterwards and absolutely loved it.
@@vincentdesiano4861 it is one of the only disciplines that has few weapons and you can only learn to use them on achieving black belt. The best example of empty hand.
Awesome video. Thank you for sharing. I've taken two different styles of karate and loved every second of it. Its been a few year's and I plan on getting back into it...
Parabéns ao povo japonês! São pessoas que contribuíram muito para o desenvolvimento na agricultura no meu amado país Brasil. Aqui também temos muitas pessoas bem educadas.
The movement is beautiful, as is the wisdom. I recognize the "soft" style movements, though I've only trained grapples and throws. There is a calmness and certainty in them.
There is nothing like good old traditional true to form Karate practiced the way it was meant to be. Thank God I learned from some great practitioners, especially one, Sensei William G. Sligar.
Muito embora o Mestre tenha mais de 70anos suas agilidades física e mental equivalem a de alguém com 30 anos. incrível o que o Karatê pode fazer por Vc.
As a Marine I was stationed at Camp Hanson and you could go threw the front gate and go and learn all the Martial arts you wanted. Okinawa Japan was great wish I could be there now. Great stereo equipment too. God bless you Master. CPL James Heflin Marine corps vet.
