Nothing cooler than a well executed Sai Kata.

[@KenpoKid77]

Poetry in motion. I'm just now learning sai kata, and videos like these give me goals to shoot for. OSU!

One of the best sai katas I've seen,great power and technique

[@kentishtowncowboy]

Really enjoyed this. I've been taught a very similar kata but this is more involved and superbly performed. Thanks for posting.

[@QuickAndEasy5MinuteAppliance]

What an excellent performance . True Kobudo. He looks very effective 👍

[@benjfeb]

I agree. This is the best kata for the sai so far . Thanks for posting.

[@senseiruss]

Awesome kata and performance. I guess I shouldn't be surprised, but I am, that two bozos actually had the nerve to give it a thumbs-down! Regardless of the two escaped mental patients who did dislike it, this is brilliant artistry and power!

[@itz_just_me594]

Excellent awesome powerful performance

[@bigsidable]

I really like using Sai’s in Shotokan Kata. Use them in all the Kata I know. As far as Gangaku.

[@ccthedragon]

superb performance ! loved his strong hip movement ( as it should be ) ,and fast hands.a true karateka. Oss.

[@aiko4321]

Awesome.. Sai became toys at his hands... Thanks for sharing

[@borrux]

Nice. Really strong version of Yaka no sai with superb Kime. If anyhthing, I'd like to have seen it a little slower so I could see even more of the details which I know was there! It was so fast in places I missed it! Excellent. Strongest Sai kata I have seen.

[@karatebuenosaires]

Es el Hamahiga No Sai ,, pero de una línea diferente a la nuestra ...espectacular .. Sensei Mamoru Nakamoto y Sensei Mitsutada Iha son mis favoritos en Kobudo ,,,

[@jokarate7]

Very good kata weapon. Easy to understand and very powerful. I like it!!!!!!!

[@haunter_1845]

A fine demonstration, the only critique I would have is dachi and embison. He seemed to be rushing through a bit which is why he finished a bit far from where he started.

[@KARATEbyJesse]

That’s not a criteria

[@haunter_1845]

​@@KARATEbyJesse Embison and Dachi are not a criteria in Okinawan martial arts?

[@CAStRomain84]

So nice to see a video that's not some kid in his basement doing a flashy performance

[@sergeiboi]

when i was a kid, my mom always tells me never to play with sharp objects...but because by being warned, i became curious about the danger of sharp thing. so as a practitioner of Kobudo, i am learning this in the dojo that i go to. lol and so far, i've been stabbed by my own sai, yet.

[@Yauzu16]

amazing hip thrust!

[@merckey]

Sai is my favorite weapon in kobudo. Great kata!

[@bulbousduckbeak]

Slick... that is very difficult kata.

[@bigsidable]

One thing that I been concern about is that the Sai was just a fishing tool. Was not really a weapon. It was like a Trident. As we know that the peasant society were not allowed to wear Katanas. And we’re at the mercy of The Samurai. Why we have some of the weapons in Japanese Martial Arts. The Sai being use as a hand held weapon against a Katana. There are very important hand placement on the Sai. That I feel are unrealistic. As I use my Sai’s that is my focus. Against a Katana. You have to really understand that or lose finger, hand and arm. Just curios on that Jesse.

[@kentishtowncowboy]

Terrific. Thanks for posting.

[@nedmilburn]

Awesome!!

[@deosullivan3]

Good spirit! Thank you for posting.

[@marcoaoranm]

Este Kata es casi idéntico a Hamahiga No Sai. Es otra version del mismo o se trata como otro Kata? Si alguien puede ayudarme...

[@dennyscreek9028]

Nice

[@crazy8sdrums]

Crisp and clean, like 7Up!

[@SovereignKnight74]

Very impressive skills!

[@rara4]

that's just awesome

[@23018484]

Excellent!!

[@logpos]

I second isshinryuman9's sentiments

[@asd748wsx]

ryuei-ryu?

[@marcoaoranm]

Este es el mismo Hamahiga no Sai?????

[@TheLordSpartan300]

Do we a name of this karate ka?

[@KARATEbyJesse]

Nakamoto Mamoru

[@mrpig6714]

ACE!!!

[@peterbernier5097]

Is this not a version of hamahiga? Looks pretty darn close

[@HeiwaKaiKarate]

I've always thought Hamahiga no Sai and Yaka no Sai were pretty similar too. This was a really good example of the latter.

[@asd748wsx]

@KARATEbyJesse le kobudó français?

[@hanzabass]

great!

[@Olga-cl4rl]

Does anyone knows where to find the tutorial of this kata???

[@DanielCohenSeirenkai]

[@detectivegirl123]

[@samueldickenson2062]
