Oss Hi. Good video on "how to" of shuto uke. I would really love to see the "why" the movements is like that. I mean, the purpose of shuto uke. Why the pulling shuto hand ends at the belly rather than ends at the waist like other moves hikite. Why the pulling hand doesnt make a fist like other hikite hand. Why the palm facing up, not facing down? Thank you, oss!

[@peterprokopiuk4921]

Because the hikite in this instance is grabbing the tricep, and the reason for it being across the belly is because you're trapping their arm against your torso while striking at the neck; stand too square-on, and they have a much easier time escaping the grip because you're trapping less of them.

You do an outstanding job teaching the most important part,.. the fundamentals. Seriously. My favorite move is when you tossed the mike at the end. Excellent move. Osu!

[@aadarlingxo2670]

A tip for people who feel like there isn't much power in the lower area of the body when you're doing the technique, so basically it comes down to your hip movement, try to think of it as grabbing a pool noodle and twisting it one way, it'll go back when you let go, right? Same thing with your hips, as he says it you pull it down, you're just twisting to one side, and letting the muscles relax to go to it's original form, but when you let your hip relax after you twist, make sure to add power to fully give you advantage in the technique!!

[@pujabhotika6827]

Sensei... Plz teach us how to do proper splits... I am not able to do it

[@Adri18bg]

Thank you for the video 😌

[@markc.jamila3848]

Yusuke in okinawa shoto uke is called knife hand or sword hand technique

[@RaidFizz]

Hi I am in it

[@Markus451]

Nice dojo, Sensei. :)

[@JKDVIPER]

3:07 Hi.. Son-Tsi from VIPER KUEN JKD. “That is a JEET KUNE DO BIJONG STANCE and not a traditional KARATE HORSE STANCE. Or other variation. To your credit of course. It’s a smart way to use our vehicles. 😉🙏🐉

[@aardvarkhendricks6555]

The knife hand is better employed as a strike as opposed to a block. It is also better employed when the palm is facing downward.

[@John-ob7dh]

I blocked a guys arm once with knife hand block ,and broke his arm ,so basically I blocked him and striked him at same time .

[@kbanghart]

​@@John-ob7dhexactly. Blocks are never just blocks, really.

[@marcofc5413]

In shotokan, moving forward in kotukso dachi pivots on the heel, the leg that is behind. Could you make a video about it?

[@justinstuart8382]

Oss! You have a Sub

[@chrisl442]

AT 5:13, the hand doing Shuto Uke is in line with the middle of the body. Shouldn't it be more extended toward the back, in line with the shoulder better protecting the Humerus against a strike?

[@SarojYadav-oe3fy]

Nice

[@m.jenkins8503]

Can you let us know what organization you belong to? And the dojo you film in. Cool background setting.

[@janviermiranda1098]

Hi Mario. Try this site: www.kuroobiya.com/shop/ I live in Australia and I got my Hirota from that company.

How would you break down shuto uke in neko ashi dachi? We usually do that strike in that stance as well as sanchi dachi.

[@vcam7814]

Is it Kyokushin karate

What stance are you using? I'm very new to karate, so forgive me if it seems obvious. Front stance? L-stance? Is it L-stance?

Oh, back stance. Hel-lo!! ☺️

[@almudenaneergaard8232]

What type of karategi do you use? I am looking for a medium weight one which is light but still has that snap. Do you have any recomendations of brands or models?

He has already told us. Hirota.

[@John-ob7dh]

I bought a 15 ounce Tokaido gi in 1974 .It gave me a real crack on blocks and punches .I think it cost me around £45 .Which was a lot of money in 74 . long since stopped karate as now 80 .But still have the gi .
