HOW TO: MEIKYO - SLOW & FAST | Shōtōkan Karate Kata by Fiore Tartaglia

[@fioretartaglia]

1:25 Strong version! Check out the description and stay in Zanshin :)

Masterful execution. As I have gotten older I have come to appreciate this kata all the more. It's simple but very nuanced all at the same time. It truly is meditation in motion.

[@fioretartaglia]

I know, its also one of my favorite

Hello

Ei

[@StuartMungall-bi7ef]

Never seen Meikyo performed with uchi uke performed on the second turn and age uke on the third turn? I learned it ( and have only ever seen it) with gedan barai on both the open sequence and second turn, then uchi uke on the third turn?

[@fioretartaglia]

You are basically right, this is the classic version and also the most common. But there is also this version. I think it makes more didactic sense, which is why I have adopted it.

[@ОстојаСиметић]

His hips and upper body twisting is great, especially in slow versions. One can understand whta they should do watching these videos.

[@fioretartaglia]

I'm glad, thanks for your feedback.

No meikyo não tem age uke

[@fernandosilva3049]

depende da organização... Em Shotokai e em SKIF de H.Kanazawa tem os 3 níveis de defesa: gedan, chudan e jodan. Mais... Alguns mestres de Shotokan também aprenderam assim, mas sabe-se lá porquê Nakayama, JKA e JKS mudaram isso e fazem só os 2 níveis=2xgedan+ 1chudan. Coisas............

[@dktraining8138]

Tolles Lehrvideo. Habe Dank meines Sensei und unserer Budo-Schule und auch Dank der Videos und Bücher von Sensei Fiore Tartaglia wieder wirklich gut ins Shotokan hineingefunden. Gestern habe das erste Mal die Kata Meikyo kennenlernen dürfen. Zur Ergänzung des Trainings im Dojo nutze ich auch hier wieder das Video und das "schwarze Buch" von Sensei Fiore Tartaglia. Prima, dass der Sensei die Bücher geschrieben und die Videos gedreht hat. Einfach eine große Bereicherung für jeden ernsthaften Karateka.

[@fioretartaglia]

Es freut mich sehr, dass dir meine Arbeit unterstützt - ich danke dir dafür. Weiterhin viel Erfolg auf deinem Karate-Weg!

[@markusklein3423]

OK.

[@christiankranz2774]

Besteht die Möglichkeit den Block und das Entreißen des Bo‘s im Bunkai zu sehen?

[@fioretartaglia]

Im Moment habe ich noch nicht darüber nachgedacht, weil ich den Fokus bewusst auf die Kata und die Beherrschung der Grundprinzipien und der Körperbeherrschung legen möchte. Später eventuell ...

[@Carlos22051989]

Oss! Have Meykio only one kiai?

[@fioretartaglia]

This varies from karate association to karate association. Sometimes it also depends on the region. Personally, I prefer the version with one kiai, because it is the classic version as described in Nakayama's book (executed by Sensei Asai). Does this answer help you?

[@meikyodhion841]

Meikyo is my name

[@fioretartaglia]

haha :)

[@nuneskaratedo2068]

@@fioretartaglia Sensei, I'm a yellow belt in shotokan karate, soon to be red, I'm looking for a kata outside of the "heians" so I can practice by myself, outside of dojo, for myself. So I'll humbly ask you - I've seen versions of this kata with the jump being "1-2", in your case I believe you landed at the same time. I'm absolutely not judging, who am I to do such a thing, I'd only like to understand, you also replied to a comment about the kiai: "I prefer the version with one kiai, because it is the classic version as described in Nakayama's book (executed by Sensei Asai)" - so back to the jumping question, what's the "classic version" about this matter? Is there a consensus? I'm from Brazil, and my school is ISKF, just thought I'd add that. By the way, considering what I said about learning an advanced kata, do you think it's ok? Would this kata be a recommendation from you to a person like me? I saw the "double block" and it reminded me of heian nidan, so that caught my interest too. If you have another recommendation please do let me know! Thank you, sensei, you're really awesome!!
