He's incredible. One of the few top masters of Goju Ryu left. He lives and breathes Goju Ryu. How great would it be to train with this guy

Wow its amazing to see Sensei Higaonna on KZbin again, I first discovered him a couple of years ago on a documentary made by the BBC back in the 80s. I would love to learn karate from him, even if it was only for an hour.

It was in the late '70's that friends of mine made a world trip to the Orient. They went to visit dojos in Okinawa.The Goju-ryu school was suffering an internal tug-of-war as to who was the inheritor of the school. The Japanese gov't. wanted to establish Goju-ryu as a Japanese art. So Morio Higaonna arose in the '80s to fill the void. They tried to do this in the late '60s with Gogen Yamaguchi of his Goju-Kai fraud but it didn't work out. Thank God. Incidentally, Chojun Miyagi died in '53 so all these "old days" stories are general knowledge. Regards

@@jujitusuka It is a very long story. Originally, In the late 60's, I was training in one of the few Okinawa Goju-Ryu schools available in PR:The Shoreikan school of Seikichi Toguchi. Allied to the school was Kimo Wall and his colleague Nobu Haru Shinoda who taught in the dojo in San Juan It was during this period, (65-75), when all these rival "schools" of JAPANESE GOJU (Yamaguchi) and AMERICAN GOJU (Peter Urban) arose. The emphasis of these people was on fighting kumite. They had no knowledge of kata or true combat technique. They were in all the magazines of the times. Meanwhile, most of the true skills remained hidden unless you went thru the ranks. You had to train for 10 years to achieve a 4th dan level. Shodans were three years training. As usual, claimants to the "throne" arose in the 70's and 80's. You will have to do more extensive research IN OKINAWA, to fully comprehend the REAL history. Some bogus claims as to who studied under whom have been thrown around so your research is sort of pointed in one direction. Regards

Raymond Frye thanks for that. So is the Goju Morio teaches the one “controlled” by the Japanese Govt (I had no idea this was even a “thing”). Who in your opinion has the most legitimate claim to Okinawan Goju?
@raymondfrye89686 жыл бұрын
@@jujitusuka Let me state that it is MY PERCEPTION ( I may be wrong), that the Japanese gov't wishes to represent Goju as a JAPANESE ART. I will have to edit my previous comment that Morio was "chosen". I have no evidence of this. He is a businessman who dedicated himself to Karate, when I first met him in the 80's. I saw him when he came to Puerto Rico. What I observed was many changes to simplify the katas so that you had to go thru the ranks and learn the really dangerous stuff. It is the "Grandmaster Syndrome" or deification I oppose. There are several excellent, traditional schools at present: Miyazato,Yagi, some others. Regards
@jujitusuka6 жыл бұрын
Raymond Frye it sounds like the teaching you received was quite different to what you saw from Morio which reflects the teaching I receive e.g. through the kyu grades. It’s something we discuss between ourselves at our club , how katas, for example, alter over time because some black belt decides it should be this way or that. I’ll look up those you’ve mentioned in your last post, thanks.
