In a nutshell, the art of creating pauses in the opponent. www.kenshukai.org/about

Kind of the downside to a 2D representation of a 3D world. My point of aim is just above the Femur Lateral Epicondyle and angled slightly behind. My ankle or instep impacts depending on the angle I am able to achieve (how far outside I can step). So the Common Peroneal is my intent. Really hard to see unless I somehow make my leg translucent. I do not usually kick higher than that, though I suppose if the opponent was smaller than me it might happen. But everyone in the entire world is taller than me. :) As I cannot put images within this post I borrowed one from Cleveland and put a dot on my intended impact and slicing point. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/wah9ri7iqpmf7fo72u43r/Impact-commonP.png?rlkey=4z1kv16og07j5ne1r5i0zy3gv&st=on6rm8ok&dl=0

This video was neither made for you or Dennis. This video was made for three people who specifically requested it and specifically requested the in-depth discussion. Ironically enough, one of which used to train with Dennis. This channel was made for my students. I did not force you to watch this short video, nor did I send you the link, nor did I post it in any place other than my personal groups. I do not feel that explaining five of Oyata's principles in a short time is laborous to my students, nor did they. If you do not want to watch my videos, feel free to be an adult about it and do not watch them by merely hitting any other button in your web browser that takes you laway from said video.

​@@KCRyuShinKangracias por ser tan explícito en sus videos señor . Cabe en la persona que los ve , el que los ponga en cámara rápida , lenta o no los vea por último. Muchísimas gracias , son buen material .

Neither of us are making any money from this. :)

And where do you live?

Thanks. Tai otoshi can be done both ways depending on a lot of variables. Weight of opponent, hip connection, calf intent. Distance of throw or trip is also more a philosophical decision. Our art, we tend to want them in most cases to stay near us so we can keep in contact and pin. Other styles primarily want to throw the subject away, which even with us there is a time and a place for that kind of decision. And of course when stopping to explain things 'in the middle' while talking to the camera and also looking to my right (where the monitor was), all these little feelings and variables change.

I have a setnof 3lb baby Sledges in the dojo, and a set in the car. :)

No problem.

It is never too late to get back into the mix. :)

This was an impromptu discussion we recorded and the microphone was messed up at certain points. So it wasn't KZbin that removed the audio. This was recorded back in January and a student requested I upload it even though some of the audio was messed up.
