[@JasurMavlyanov]

She's the best, every single move is perfect.

[@MrFacundo7]

Her katas are pure art, specially this one. She truly is an artist!

[@wallrider73]

This is god-tier kata. Unbelievable. This is what a lifetime of dedication will achieve.

[@tucsonmclean5138]

I have never seen karate so beautifully executed

[@vladturbin7578]

Her performance is perfection itself...Never thought that such an execution is possible. Also speed and power she generates is awsome, as well as rootening, hip rotation, use of tanden, concentration of mind, kime, etc.

[@MusicforMe123]

It's an honor to witness perfection. Thank you.

[@nrusimha11]

It is informative to see that so many of the commenters can't get past her looks. Simply appreciate her virtuosity without coloring it.

[@ronnydjhernandez]

AMAZING, stronger, faster... it is impossible not to get excited seeing this great preformance...

[@shisyamopan]

この人がやるとピンと空気が張り詰めた感じになって引き込まれるのが凄い。

[@scottsummers684]

She definitely represents Japanese Karate very well...Kudos to her...!!!

[@Libertariandude]

I do not practicing martial arts with Kata, but I know enough to discern that I'm watching one of the best in the world. Well done 🍻

[@sg0238]

Pure poetry in motion.

[@arepitagrande8797]

Her technique is accurate fast and precise...just wow. Amazing.!

[@sinnick467]

Chills. Impeccable performance 😍👏

[@terryshaw5503]

WOW...I would love to learn that Kata...I have never seen this one performed in my life till now...Thanks for sharing..

[@seikibrian8641]

Kusanku, also called Kanku-dai in some schools, is common in karate schools that have roots in Shuri-te. It was one of my Shito Ryu sensei's favorite kata.

[@jno8039]

@@seikibrian8641 You right. There is many name Kusanku, Kanku-dai, Kosokun Dai

[@tinacantrill2273]

Incredible speed and power. And her technique.... Wow... Just wow.

[@shaolin224]

the cameraman is breathing harder than her.

Best kata I ever seen

Amazing, perfect and LEGENDARY!! 😍💪🇯🇵

[@UchihaNoMadara]

This might as well be the best Kata ever done by a human being. Kudos!

[@sadiazaman10]

She is really worthy to be a champion......🙋🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇🙇

[@chuckcollins2349]

sadia zaman Im a 6'7 340 bodybuilder, could she knock me out?

[@BeTheStorm]

Great video Jesse, love your channel

[@zachkarate1]

I will miss seeing her perform! Thanks for the upload Jesse!

[@fred_2021]

Constant practice and mental discipline maximizing the potential of an ideally suited physique.

[@justdonsmail]

Imagine performing in front of a crowd and your reputation is such that they aren’t expecting good or great, but flawless.

[@hynad81]

Now imagine being skilled to the point you can deliver on those expectations…

[@joaosawaoandoando1982]

Ela e linda e impecável no Kátia. Perfeita

[@ryguyadventures5830]

The snap she generates is unbelievable!

[@jonathanjoe1364]

Rika Usami has a nice contrast of beauty and discipline that makes her performances incredibly enjoyable to watch.

[@eugeneendres5846]

I would not mess with this woman. She would kick my ass ! I love her. She's amazing.

[@bluerainbug]

And here I thought those sound effects from body movements was only in karate movies.

[@paulp2312]

Stunning, the speed and power is truly amazing.

[@DarqeDestroyer]

What is this sorcery? She moves so fast it's like something out of a video game. Any of those strikes would be instant ko's if they connected with a person. 99% of people wouldn't react fast enough to block them. Even seasoned MMA fighters mostly wouldn't block those strikes IMHO.

[@Fvlkan]

shes world champ for a reason lol

[@JayDaddyRocker]

she's small bro. smaller people are quicker

[@falconetti3152]

His kime sound is amazing. Sandra Sánchez and Kiyou Shimizu do not reach that level of perfection explosiveness and elegance at the same time

[@LuiisLabra]

**heavy breathing**

[@nirupomascollection2118]

MY FAVOURITE KATA

You people are lucky to see and even have a seminar with these people. I hope I can see them too one day.

[@SamohtNox]

that scrisp movement and explosiveness is insane

[@OvidiuPetrescu-c7g]

Incredibil!!! Respect!!! 🙇🙇🙇 Așa arată un adevărat campion!!!

[@raysmith5639]

Precision.

[@vilislav300]

This is what karate is all about.

[@UchihaNoMadara]

Hey there! Well, exactly that. Speed and precision combined with perfect timing and astonishing control of the body. Thats high speed Karate for you. ;) She understands what part of the body she needs to mobilize to execute the techniques.

[@loyalarcher]

She announced it in a press conference held by the Japan Karate Federation. It's in the JKF FB page.

[@MrHenkfromHolland]

All the people who disliked this video, don't understand nothing about karate. It cost a lot efforts before you can walk a kata. She is great

[@rajindroneel]

The best i hv seen till now...

[@MrBeiragua]

For some reason I don´t understand, I have never realise how powerful and precise her kata was. I´m in love...

[@Sam9Jam]

I like the way she move. Oss! Respect from BJJ fighters.

[@ilham_789]

My favorite karatedo!👍👍👏👌💖

[@dgmario]

Elle a les pieds plats et s'en sort très très bien. Handicap pour le service militaire à l'époque. Vraiment super

[@enilsonjorgino4083]

Rika é um fenômeno...

[@3112alina]

saw it live.. simply perfect!!

[@rickykingi5191]

Unbelievable 😮

[@stefcannon2580]

I practice taekwondo, not karate, but Rika and her amazing technique is one of the main reasons why I’d love to try it someday!

[@gitim1707]

So, try it. I have trained karate for many years (black belt), and Taekwondo for some months... As far as I can judge, I wouldn't make any consideration about what is "best", I think it hasn't much sense, each one has its own approach, its own logic, view, utility, but I can tell you that, in my point of view, they are "similar" only in a first glance, in the sense both of them use strikes with hands and feet, but their approach are completely different, a different mind, different way to consider what is more important in training, in a fight... In short, even using foot and hand strikes in both cases, they are so different ways to approach what a combat is, so try Karate for a while, just to compare similarities and differences that can exist behind the appearances. And have fun!! ;)

[@stefcannon2580]

@@gitim1707 Thank you!! 😃 I agree, that there shouldn’t be any ‘better’ style. I watched a karate class at a school around the corner from my place (ultra convenient!), however I found the teacher to be a bit on the arrogant side. He said more than once how impressed people were with his demonstrations, but I wish he had just let his actions do the talking. I did see him teach some young students and he certainly knew what he was doing. But when I told them which taekwondo organisation I’m with, of which he and his subordinate knew, they started to say ‘I’m not one to say that one is better than the other, but...’ and there was a general air of slight disdain that I detected. So despite the great location, I may not try with them. But I know of another school not too far away, in the Goju-Ryu style, so I’m excited to try that sometime! 😊 Thank you for your encouragement!! 😃

[@Martial-Mat]

Agree with your positive assessment of high level masters. But I think it's sad that kata performance has become about flexilibility and athleticism as much as effectiveness to a certain degree. Not to take anything away from the martial ability of these performers, but when people are rewarded for non-bunkai elements, such as super high jumps and kicks, it creates a broadening disconnect between form and function.

[@endeavour420]

Beautiful

Perfection

Excellent 🙂👍 Very professional

La reina indiscutible Rika Usami (宇佐美 里 香), nacido el 20 de febrero de 1986 es un karateka japonés, nacido en Tokio, más conocido por haber ganado el Campeonato Mundial de Karate 2012.6 may. 2015

[@raymondchew8894]

How is her speed compare with Bruce Lee. I have seen her video during her young age. She must be very discipline all this years and make lots of progress . She is Japan gem and nation proud. I salute and respect this lady.

[@AlessandroTimmi]

There are no words to describe her greatness... thanks for sharing Jesse!!! Question: is "koshokun" the same of "kushanku"?

[@fransiscoalmeoda3476]

Japoneizinha linda .eu gostei parabens pela apresentaçao ...lindinha

[@charliecrome207]

That Kata is very similar to a second Dan ITF taekwondo black belt pattern

[@Martial-Mat]

Hear hear - I agree completely about the romanticism of the old masters. But you can very easily judge the movement of a karateka in some basic areas - posture, connection to the ground, use of hips, etc. Anyone who has been in a dojo a few years has a reasonable idea of the experienceof a person just by the way they move.

[@karatebassa]

perfection
