Brilliant Teaching - A Wonderful Teacher

[@stevecridge]

Love this guys work. Very inspirational 👌

[@robg521]

Truly inspirational. I never trained with Yahara but had the honour to be taught but Enoeda, Kanazawa, Asano, Kawasoe & Ohta. They all taught this way but in the early days we never had translators so often we didn't understand and missed fundamental rules so felt in awe of their technique that we failed to emulate. Thankfully language skill progressed so now we can learn the finer details and understand.

Yoko Geri my favourite kick in Karate 👍

[@Karatejin]

That's a hell of a training! I got exhausted just by watching! But that's the spirit, after all. There is no shortcut in Martial Arts! Oss!!

[@santannakarate]

[@florian18830]

Awesome workouts

[@RevSteveHermann]

Great video. Great class by a great master.

[@seinundzeiten]

no one can move like Yahara sensei...

[@Maximilian0011]

true, shame we could not see how yoko kekomi is done though :)

[@wadokaratepromotionsociety1450]

I can remember years ago he was know as the bad boy of karate....great, great video.

[@berylrosenberg704]

Until Frank Smith wiped the floor with him. Enoeda was stronger, more athletic and "IMHO" had better technique - more destructive.

[@williephimister3077]

@@berylrosenberg704 can you tell me more about this, where and what happened, I haven't heard this before, was it in a tournament or sparring in a dojo.

[@berylrosenberg704]

@@williephimister3077 The attack on Frank was in a dojo but the sparring against Yahara was in tournaments

[@williephimister3077]

@@berylrosenberg704 thanks for replying. Would be good to watch. Do you know if there is any footage of these tournaments or dojo sparring.

Buen control de la técnica 👍

[@webstrum]

Love ❤️

[@doctor_derecho]

Es bueno el repaso de la técnica del Kiba dachi y el avance para practicar yokogueri. A veces uno cree que las técnicas las aplica bien y es falso, y hay pequeños errores. Por ejemplo allí el maestro Mikio enseña a corregir los errores y a ejecutar el avance en kibadachi con fuerza y prolongación. Oss

Sensei Yahara: simple humple powerful very talented ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️respect from kerala❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@WSCOMPUTER]

Great video!

[@mooseven]

"If you can move like this, your keri will be more dynamic!" - pretty difficult to "move like this" though!

[@rajmiah4040]

Looks good but Not good... Over extending causing inbalance. You can see as soon as they over extend they drop their leg rather than retracting the leg to chamber position.

[@TheManofsorrows]

the man with the stripe sleeves has the best kick.

[@robg521]

He is one of those people who feels the need to make noise to enhance the image of power, so he is very vocal during the kume of the kick. And he is also hitting/slapping his Gi (karate suit) at the same time to accentuate that image. This is very fitting for someone with go faster strips on their suit. Yes he is the most flexible but he is insecure. Perhaps he is feeling nervous in front of Sensei (I know that I would be LOL)

[@Darragh62]

Rob G well spotted. In japan the nail that sticks up gets beat back down. He’d have been looked at like that because of all the things you just said. Special treatment was had for sure off camera

[@Maximilian0011]

well, its a trouble when a teacher can not show the students how yoko kekomi should be done, secondly, it would be proper to see blue belt grade correctly thundering yoko geri like it would be his nature to kick all day long :) got my point?

[@bourbakis]

At 15:00 the blonde guy got it.

[@MariusWM]

Why so small hombu dojo?

[@alainmartin7751]

Marius because it is in Tokyo, a very expansive city

[@Darragh62]

Property in Tokyo is an absolute premium. Seriously expensive to have a dojo. All small dojo’s.

[@agnesSCG]

Parece que o sensei não tem muita paciência com os caras não rsrsrs

[@user-rt5jp1wq2e]

You can work through the air for decades without understanding the meaning of all the movements. So without ever trying to hit the same bag for you, these movements will be sacred, but meaningless. Useless. I am a karate fan in the distant past. And a boxer. And that's why I say: the meaning of any pushing blow is like if you have to open a very heavy door tightly closed in front of you without stopping for a single second. And most of us have done this everyday movement many times without thinking. (Once, in a rage, I almost took out the doors along with the jamb with such a blow.) And in training, again and again, they stubbornly searched for the great absurd meanings of the "secret technique" of the blow. I hope someone understood correctly.

[@johnceni3902]

SO MUCH ENERGY LOST..just to execute that technique ...

[@austingode]

And then the Japanese went to Thailand 🇹🇭.....👀👀

[@doctor_derecho]

Jajajaja jajajaja jajajaja. El viejo Miko, se las pone difícil a esos karatekas. Si no aprenden de el viejo no aprenden de nadie. Jajajaja jajajaja jajajaja 🤣
