Best Musical forms of all time - Open - 1st to 10th

[@240fxst]

watching this is aching my arthritis and aggravating my vertigo.

[@MrSwaigger]

he mixes his own music:o I trained with him a couple years ago and when he was sitting around, he would be on his laptop mixing his music. he's a super chill dude!!!

[@starhairthetutor3765]

This is why I give people plenty of space when their favorite jam comes on. ;)

[@zippoxl91]

the guy taping matt emig was like jizzing in his pants "TRIPLE!!!!!" haha

[@osonhodeleon]

Spetacular. Great martial arts fighters.

[@OldSkoolKarate]

You know... that might be kind of fun. I'm defiantly considering it.

[@steviek1980]

awesome compilation! someone needs to call paramedic, cause matt emig is so sick!

[@VRJaguarandi]

Super cool compilation My favorites here are Caitlin Dechelle and Matt Emig. lol steve terada ken Street fighter II Theme and Kim Do using Ryu Voice in his form ha ha This guys are really talented

[@jaquelthompson9134]

I love how Matt Emig was on here like four times haha

[@lovemauihawaii]

wow, I just typed in the times (like this: 2:01 ) and KZbin translated them into hotlinks, that jump right to the correct spot in the video. how cool is that!

[@skywalker3X]

I like steve cause he uses all his moves in his Dance crew "Quest crew" They are awesome. Won America's best dance Crew season 3

[@thomascreeley867]

I like Terada and Emig the best.

[@DonovanSheehan]

2nd is my favorite by far. best of all time

[@Joshiboy540]

I really liked steve terada he was pretty sick

[@lightangelken1]

Its called ExtrememMartial Arts everyone. Look it up, its meant for looking cool no traditional values.

[@slygemini]

haha someone is obviously a fan of Matt Emig. I do have to admit that the number 2 form on here is one of the sickest I've ever seen. And that's saying a lot because Im old school, I competed 96-99. Good compilation of forms but oviously i noticed there's nothing before 2003

[@rensloons2293]

Ive been doing martial arts for 3 years and yet I can't do flips

[@DanPorritt]

I've been doing it for 10 and I can't. My school doesn't tend to deal with any tricking sort of stuff

[@DanPorritt]

I mean, I can do a very good kip-up but that's about the flashiest thing I can do. I can sort of do a backflip but I end up going over my right shoulder a bit and I keep putting my hands down at the very last second

[@kieranelson6379]

it just depends on the school you go to lol this is the kind of stuff i do just not at this level

[@vitorojasavila]

Hi! Does somebody have the Karas of Adrian Ulanoff??? In the Super Grands 97 it was the cleanest Kata I 've seen until that point of my life.

[@fyouze]

Cheer up! In all the schools I trained, I could beat the &*$# out of all the best flippers. It's a matter of focusing on your priorities and what works.

[@TheFly123dragon]

i like the music the street fighter mdr !! with Steve Tereda.

[@trulgn]

MATT EMIG WINS!!!.............FLAWLESS VICTORY

[@kylesommerville821]

Trippin kim do killed it

[@christianlegoguy14]

Thanks a lot bro!

[@chiilsonice]

Matt Emig #1 cleanest tricker in the world

[@ShadowKyuubi2750]

It is from the Street Fighter 2 Soundtrack.

[@Vman9484]

Scooter - Nessaja I have it on one of their cds :-)

[@lukasm5301]

1:09 can’t tell if I’m watching a Kata or gymnastics routine

[@CreekDriz]

What is the song in #6????? First person to tell me is the best!

[@cuentanoexistente]

"You may train for a long time, but if you merely move your hands and feet and junp up and down like a puppet, learning karate is not very different from learning a dance." Funakoshi Gichin

[@ShadowKyuubi2750]

Wow... holy mother of pearl, Kim Do's music is also from Street Fighter, haha. Oh, and it's difficult to know the song you were asking for since you can't actually buy it. I only know from the games and arcade.

[@vincentbehrendt9729]

👍👍👍👍👍

[@taekwondomaster911]

i see steve terada in the background at 8:19 he has that white armband on that he always wears

[@malaktus]

i think kim do was the best but they all were nuts

[@flipmac540]

@OldSkoolKarate i agree, the best ive seen thats posted on youtube is chat from the 94 BOA. that beats any trick lol, just my opinion =) but he does do a back tuck in that form haha.

[@braidon2]

does the trick when kim do grabs his legs have a name?

[@christianlegoguy14]

Name of the music of the first performance?????? (with steve)

[@eduardommancillacalles7774]

Wo wo

[@tangoseven70]

As someone who competed in forms in the early to mid 90's before leaving the sport behind, I enjoyed watching Terada and Emig the most. But I don't like watching performers who can't do the basics well, like if Michelle Kwan had just done fantastic jumps but did shit with the rest her routine. Also, artistically, even when done with precision and power, the choreography tends to be repetitive and not to build real tension. Feels more like public masturabation of self, to be honest.Great jumps

[@Undeadepicness]

#6 music please?

[@iTzxMC]

i think number 2 was the best =x

[@bazrun]

kim do that was badass

[@hernannamuche1424]

what's the name of the song of the 5th perfomance?? (with matt emig)

[@Karategirlpro333]

@Feiky I totally agree , I'm 13 and i have been doing Japanese traditional shotokan karate for nearly 7 years . We train very hard and take our martial art not as a sport but as a never ending path ! We respect the founders such as funokoshi and train under his principles ! We do not wear multicolored gi's and train to music and we do not do flashy kicks and spins ! we complete all of our techiques with hips , power , compression-expansion and speed ! This is not karate ....

[@danielriveraayerdi9453]

Whats the music that Steve Terada uses for his kata?

[@JHafichuk]

I think steve terada should have been atleast in the top 3

[@CreekDriz]

What's the song in #6? Someone please tell me

[@taekwondomaster911]

but in any case, does anyone know the name of the song that marc canonizado used?

[@skillsx16]

seriously i think kimdo should been number 2 with the whole street fighter thing going on, that was some crazy stuff

[@shabazzmath]

someone's obsessed with Matt Emig. I'm gonna have to say that I liked Kim Do's the best. However it seemed like he used that form for a long time

[@lovemauihawaii]

Can anyone tell me the names of some or all of the music? 1:08 sounds like the theme from Beverly Hills Cop (?) the other song names I need are at: 0:15, 2:01, 3:12, 4:44, 6:11, 6:55, 7:48, 8:36 thank you!!!

[@dtpark1213]

I take it you're a big fan of Matt Emig. lol, to each his own. Matt's great, but I still think Canonizado's routines are technically more difficult and regularly performed cleaner. You left out Rudy Reynon's kama and Kalmon Csoka's sword routines.

[@Malario80]

Street Fighter!!

[@universaInformation]

street dancer

[@CrazyIemon]

DAMN.

[@leesiulong1982]

Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de video de Jean Frenette à chacun son avis LOL ;)

[@Undeadepicness]

What's Marc c's music called?

[@TheCultureCommentary]

LOL! Do you know how Matt Emig found that song?.... I gave it to one of his friends... I know exactly what song it is.... Redd Square feat. Tiff Lacey - In Your Hands...... I thought it would be an awesome song for a musical form... I was right :)

[@SantanderB97]

1:50 name of the music of kimdo??

[@buffaleen]

kim do has his own trick

[@skillsx16]

whats that mix kim do used I want that mix

[@Alex4124124]

all fantastic artists, but where was daniel sterling? ashley beck and chloe bruce? lol :D

[@carbonfiberkatana]

the order is all out of wack. matt emig is so good though. damn

[@lilkarategirl]

what is this song called?

[@KaGex_ow]

@sebricci i've hung out wit Rudy Reynon, i didnt kno it at the time lol, and he's hella kool

[@junior110587]

ahhhhhhh muito efra kara,os kra são foda o kim mandando um shoryuken que lokura

[@scottyC408]

Cool video, but I think you're a little biased towards Matt Emig. I'm a fan of his too but... I have to agree with dtpark.

[@AOD-tr7nd]

Best of all time? Ever hear of Brice Anthony or William Shelton? Hiro Koda?

[@zee3are0]

Yeah, would have liked to see Jon Valera, Carmichael Simon, Mike Chaturantabut, Jimmie Pham, and, well, if you're going to have three by Emig, you're missing the best work by Kim Do, definitely missing Richie Brandon, whose weapons forms were way beyond anything on here. This was drawn from a very limited and very time constrained time period. Take another look at old Team JPM stuff. Then again, we're all free to make our own. Just, so long as sebricci here knows I disagree with his list.

[@christianlegoguy14]

7:43 AW YEAH!

[@omnigeddon]

Wow no Rudy?

[@MaskedWeasel666]

why were four of the top ten one guy?

[@dirtyfrogmann]

josh durbin? sage northcutt?

[@MrSwaigger]

open forms have just turned into tricking with sloppy traditional martial arts. kim, and steve keep everything clean and technical! tricking is cool, but there needs to be a balance of tricking and traditional martial arts. ja feel?

[@kieranelson6379]

yea but like also that's what traditional is for. but i understand the balance especially if your ticking isn't on par enough to just basically do kick tricks the whole time and cant trow more than a backside 9

[@EmpRitz]

Like Emig much?

[@Wacco_Gaming]

ive seen kim perform that many times but he still shoulda gotten first

[@UrbanChino1]

It is ken's theme from street fighter

[@martintumlayen787]

wow

[@sanfour228]

yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssss

[@RadenMan]

7:54!!!! Holy fffffff!

[@Vman9484]

I think #2 should've been #1 ... and vice versa

[@slygemini]

wow someone apparently likes Matt Emig. His forms are good but I'm old school so I just see sloppy hand techniques. He's still good though

[@anthonygrig]

5:50 is it just me or does mat fall and use the splits as a cover up

[@andrewcharlton6997]

wheres MIKE CHAT!!!

[@FaridYM]

& jon valera

[@iflyforsj]

you should change the name to matt emig's best musical forms lol

[@buffaleen]

the kim do

[@johnboy5632]

HAAADUUUKEN!!!!!!!

[@dtpark1213]

focus daniel-san, focus.

[@Kotodon]

No offence but what the hell was with Katlins punches. She just kinda stuck her arms out there, but thats just my opnion

[@trappedforever1388]

Start this at the same time as u put Happier by mashmello and its gucci

[@ricepattylatty6153]

i know right

[@kasselrine]

I miss Jean Frenette.....The real one.

[@whackyninja]

@lovemauihawaii i know right :D

[@FongDongSilver]

@FTADanceCru how in the hell was it sloppy

[@TheCultureCommentary]

Streetfighter 2 soundtrack... Kens Theme..

[@edjralvarado]

Steve treads 10th really? I thought his form and Kim do we're the cleanest out of everyone.

[@64lundyco]

#7 was good but there was no speed so the techniques looked weak

[@FFmaxxx]

haha clearly the maker of the vid grew up in a totally diff age of sport karate as evident of all the top 10's being people who made their names post 2003 bar a few people. its funny u said all that cuz i was lookin at this vid expecting to see some old school people kim and steve are the only ones.

[@theturtlewaspaul]

This isn't what Martial Arts is about, but although we do have them in America it is not a significant part of what we do. I do Martial Arts in America and we hardly do any open forms.

[@itme20]

come on its his own list not the whole worlds thats what he thinks

[@JohnathanSMungo]

This is cool but you are forgetting about the GREATS. Jon Valera, David Douglas, Anthony Demarco, Matt Mullins, Brian Bowles, Jimmy Pham, Anthony Atkins, Shelly Allen, Casey Marks, Her lil brother Butch Marks had a great musical form at the Battle of Atlanta in like 99. Steven Torres not Terada has some good ones. He used to be on KICK team with Marcel Jones. Mike Chat is the TRUTH!!!!!! Check out some of these guys and you will see some better forms crisper technique with flips and twist.

[@OldSkoolKarate]

Boo on this list. What about Mike Chat? Jon Valera? Carmichael Simon? Daniel Sterling? Anthony Atkins? Casey Marks? Jon Su? These aren't the best forms, these are the best tricks in forms.

[@edjralvarado]

Steve terada 10th really? I thought his form and Kim do were the cleanest.

[@zippoxl91]

I seriously doubt you've given Steve Terada a real chance. He may not be your favorite, so you probably haven't seen many of his forms, but there should no way in hell he or even Kim do should be that low on the list, i don't know. You should check out some of his forms.
