国籍も老若男女も関係なく、理の道を共に歩めば我々は皆、天と地と人と調和出来ると信じています

土曜日は9:25amから道場稽古が始まります。まだ眠いはずが生徒たちは遅刻せず集合します。今朝は生徒たちの成長を感じた瞬間がありました。形の稽古中に私は生徒たちに質問しました。
「練りと腹圧の共通点は何かな？」
挙手したのは8歳児や9歳児たち。彼らは答えました。
「自分の姿勢が良くなる！」
私は続けて質問しました。
「練りと腹圧には違いがあるの？」
彼らは目を輝かせて笑顔で挙手し答えました。
「練りは、身体の上と下が逆方向に回転してる。雑巾を絞ったような状態。その絞りがもとに戻ろうとすると速い回転が生まれる♪」
幼い子供たちが次々発言する光景を見学していた保護者たちは私と一緒に驚いていました。
国籍も老若男女も関係ないのです。理の道を共に歩めば我々は皆、天と地と人と調和出来るに違いありません。
On Saturdays, dojo practice starts at 9:25am. Although the students are still sleepy, they gather on time. This morning, there was a moment when I felt the students' growth. During the kata practice, I asked the students,
"What do Neri and abdominal pressure have in common?"
The eight- and nine-year-olds raised their hands. They answered,
"It improves my posture!"
I continued to ask them,
"Is there a difference between Neri and abdominal pressure?"
They answered with shining eyes, smiling faces and raising their hands.
「In Neri, the upper and lower parts of the body rotate in opposite directions. It's like wringing out a rag. When the wringing returns to its original position, a fast rotation is created ♪」
The parents, watching as their young children spoke one after another, were amazed and delighted with their children's growth, just like me.
Nationality, age, gender, etc. are irrelevant. If we walk the path of reason together, we can all live in harmony with heaven, earth, and mankind.

Dear Tomitaka Sensei, for me there couldn't have been a better or more beautiful final. We didn't fight against each other, we fought together. I am incredibly proud that we fought together and I learned so much in that minute. With deep respect, I look forward to seeing you again.

@@mikestengel4286 Dear Mike Sensei, Thank you for watching my video and commenting. I also read your messenger. I empathize with all of Mike sensei's thoughts. It was a special day that made me realize once again that success is not something that can be achieved by one person alone, but is born from the connection of the hearts and hands of many people. I look forward to the day I can meet you again.

Why it is called "Higashi Geri" 東蹴り? Ossu!

[@SeibuGokokuGakuin]

@@SenseiMaharaj I realized that it was hard to understand because the characters were small. I did not write "Higashi-Keri." It is the character "Soku" which means "to bundle." It looks very similar, but if you look closely, it is a different character. It is the kick of the name "Sokugeri." 文字が小さいから分かりづらいということを私は理解しました。私は東蹴りとは書いていないのです。「たばねる」という意味を持つ『束』という文字です。とても似ているのですが、よく見ると違う文字なのです。『そくげり』と名の蹴りです。

Interesting. いつも. Does Shin kick in 日本語 is すね蹴り sune geri? Why 東蹴り higashi geri? Thank you

Oh yes, now I noticed the different kanji. Thank you for your reply. And which are the difference between soku geri and sune geri?

[@SeibuGokokuGakuin]

@@addeside In martial arts there is a low kick where you hit the opponent's thigh or shin with your shin, but kicking the opponent's shin with the sole of the foot is called Soku Geri. Soku Geri also includes techniques to block the opponent's kick at the exact moment it is about to be delivered.

[@healingworksyesjohnn]

do you do on line teaching?

[@SeibuGokokuGakuin]

@@healingworksyesjohnn I only provide online training for my students when I cannot practice at the dojo. I usually place emphasis on face-to-face training at the dojo.
