I value the episodes that explore the intricacies of "old" or authentic karate styles and the application of body mechanics. The comparisons made between these styles and the Tai Chi I practice, set apart from the more typical park demonstrations, are truly intriguing. It's captivating to witness the alignment of movements that generate optimal power with minimal energy across various martial arts. I extend my encouragement for you to persist in exploring and producing videos on these topics. Best regards, Jaro.

Much respect to the human punching bag that was absorbing those shots. No easy task even at 10-20% Thank you sir.

These techniques are what I learned from studying boxing technique, could’ve been the coach, but when he explained how to shift your energy, and where power truly comes from mostly emphasized with grunts and growls and dramatic facial expressions, it was life-changing

Same here, what he is teaching looks a lot like what my boxing instructor referred to as the "pro-shoulder" where you can see the energy ripple from the body through that relaxed shoulder. My instructor said he was never taught how to do it but that he eventually figured it out after years of watching older pro-fighters. When he asked them how they would just say something like "You got to stay loose man," so he was left to figure it out on his own. Unfortunately, while he could demonstrate it and talk about it, he never really found a good way of teaching it other than pointing it out and letting us learn the same way he did. He did recommend this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bKaumHmqZ8mFe5o as containing some examples (slow it down and look at the light-skinned fighter's left shoulder around 0:45-0:49 and the dark-skinned fighter's right shoulder around 1:22-1:24).

Katsuya Izumikawa has a great book about this called “Karate no Aiki, Aiki no Karate.” He looks into Naha-based methods and the many similarities to aiki techniques. You should check it out, Yusuke. Recently there was a video collab with Sensei Seth, Jesse Enkamp, and Icy Mike, and Icy Mike referred to karate as the “universal adapter of marital arts,” meaning it actually encompasses at least the basic aspects of nearly every other art. So, a practitioner can in theory see karate elements in every martial art.

The first looked like a Systema punch. This one looks like an Isshinryu punch.

500 hmmm so daito ryu had a history going 1200 years back. I wonder where this guys style branched off if hes claiming theyve had aiki that long. It wasnt even called aiki till the late 1890s. I think some research on this ryu is needed.
