[@sanesanchezs]

The scream or Kiai is applied in battle. It is not only to encourage yourself but to also frighten and intimidate the enemy. Here it is not necessary, although some consider it traditional.

[@user-cz7wp4jz6n]

Well said, all in the breathing and the control of the body.

@@sanesanchezs There is much more to Kiai then encourage and intimidate. If you are a karateka go back to your Sensie and ask him to explain the beneits of the Kiai.

1. Took Okinawan Kemp Karate in the 70's. Crab Stance was my selected option. Very brutal concepts and mindsets that mostly work in real life. 2. Took several styles of martial arts but wound up to Krav Maga which I considered the best all around form of real life protection. 3. Breaking boards and baseball bats, if you know where and how to strike is not that special, which is why in today's age everything thing like a baton is made out of a metal or of a polymer. Besides that very nicely done on the choreographs. This takes a great deal of proper timing on all parts so much respect on them.

[@Expatriate1977]

This is how it was in olden times. You were not trained for sport but for infallible solidarity in your duties as a warrior. It was more than a job to be loyal to your lord, it was an honor of the highest and it was unacceptable to fail your lord. It’s one thing to be a martial artist and a whole different thing to be a warrior. These men are warriors. It’s what I aspire to in my training. I have the highest respect for those who are true warriors.

These aren't your typical McDojos in the west, these are actual martial arts practitioners dedicating their lives to their craft.

[@MegaRhettButler]

McDojos aren't typical in the West. They get a lot of well deserved attention and hate but they aren't typical at all. Western karate practitioners train the same as Eastern practitioners and develop the same skills.

[@Emanouche]

​@@MegaRhettButlerIf you don't practice fighting in a ring with real people on a regular basis, your martial art skills are worthless in a real fight, no matter how much wood you can break. That's because being in a fight is also a skill that if not practiced, it doesn't matter how much you know against an experienced fighter (Look up Xu Xiaodong, the MMA man beating up Kung Fu masters across China to understand what I mean). Took me a while to realize the truth, Karate was a nice base, but studying MMA now. Nothing wrong with studying martial arts in which dojos you never really fight either, it's great sport, form, tradition, just don't rely on it to save you in a real fight. I know it's not a popular opinion with traditional Martial Arts aficionados, but it's the honest truth. The internet is full of videos of masters surprised when they get their rears handed to them in a sanctioned fight, some look absolutely dazed as it's the first time you see them take a punch to the face.

[@MegaRhettButler]

@@Emanouche I'm not a Karate guy I do Muay Thai, and yeah I spar. I'm having my first fight in November. I didn't say Karate can beat MMA in my comment, I said McDojos aren't typical in the West. I've trained a few different styles and I've never personally been in a belt factory/McDojo. Karate is awesome for fundamentals. You can really tell the difference in Muay Thai between ex karate guys and untrained people. If you want to be able to fight you eventually have to fight. I agree. I also believe that traditional styles and MMA have things to teach each other and that there should be mutual respect between different styles. My club recently had a full contact event between Muay Thai, MMA, Freestyle Martial Arts and kickboxing clubs. We're a traditional style of Muay Thai but our guys did well (so did the MMA guys). All the clubs there were tough, all could fight and all showed respect for each other. There were no Tai Chi or Wing Chun clubs there however. I guess their skills were too deadly and they were afraid of accidentally killing us lol

[@karandras2854]

@@Emanouche you miss many mma guys with karate background using karate form and fighting, maybe karate is not the best in the cage bc of the ground game etc, but saying it's not useful in real fight is wrong, it depends a lot on who you are up against and how you were trained, I was in a mcdojo as you call it, and it was easy to get belts, and pretty fast, however in the 4 years I practiced I received a kick in the face, that kick I remember to this day, even if the sparring we did was light and not full contact, It was a good place to train for a civilian use, I got the basic punches kicks and projection. Also good physical training, and self control were practiced. To my understanding Karate evolved from a martial art to a more civilian friendly use, sport etc. It's not fair to compare old karate with new one. And many MMA guys don't understand people watch and practice karate as a sport because they don't like blood splatters and unjustified violence, the standard MMA dude is so sure he will need to kill someone with is bare hands one day, wich is funny, and a litlle sad.

[@psyche9580]

Aljon also, how the fuck can that kata, where mf was having boards smashed over his legs, be more based on technique and not strength

[@aljon5947]

Breathing technique, exhale every strike its more powerful. Proper form. You don't practice like this. You should punch a makirawa or kick a bag. Youre gonna break your bones if you hit urself with bats and punch hard boards without conditioning, its only for the strong not for beginners to get strong. Search seienshin Kata, do you see them punch always some hard stuff? No they just punch or kick the air. I can't agree its just pure strength.

7:10 The wood breaks at another point, than the point of impact. If you have studied physics, you know that the point of impact is the weakness part at an equivalent density of material. In this case wood. 7:12 Here the wood breaks on the other side with a long crack. Energy has broken/curved the wood at an earlier crack. 7:13 The breaking point should be closer to the belly button, where most of the energy is collected. There is no equivalent density in the wood, so it has been manipulated. play it in slowmotion from 7:07 in HD.

❤ Excellente cette démonstration

Serious question without trying to make fun of anything. Consider my question a product of ignorance with a will to learn. Are these plywood boards in demonstrations actually hard to break? Is there any trick behind it? Thanks.

I lived on Okinawa in the mid sixties, wonderful memories of a beautiful island and culture. Just wish I would been smart and bought a sword from Master Hattori Hanzo while I was there. At least try his sushi.

Cool. My sensei was Musashi Miyamoto when I lived in Okinawa in the 40's.

3:06 what you came for

[@Twobarpsi]

Thank you!!!!

[@timbarton5524]

Thank you.

[@FiasaPower]

Very hard style. Mad props.

The guy holding the wood at 2:54 seems to be trying them himself, considering how hard he is pressing it with the fingers of his left hand. Shouldn’t they just hold the thing and not help break it?

[@felineth56]

Impressionant!

[@Freejason33]

well, it was a piece of wood in the shape of a bat

[@kamaboko1]

Aren't all wood bats a piece of wood shaped into a bat?

[@Freejason33]

@@kamaboko1 believe it or not, there are different types of wood

[@joehart6406]

Yeah i didnt see louisville slugger on it the boards were easy but the bat im not sure i could do that plus it looked like open hand but Okinowan karate punches and kicks are devastating even their blocks can take out an opponent

[@joehart6406]

@Ruddy Bakewell never heard that before thats really interesting can you please explain how they are treated and finished (besides being kiln dried which just dries the wood out.

[@joehart6406]

@Ruddy Bakewell thank you im getting old and easily confused haha at me ur a cool dude

[@boblevey]

たぶん海外の方は 「板に割れ目がある」 「あのスピードでは攻撃にならない！威力が無い！」 とか思うんだろうなぁ 中国カンフーや韓国テコンの足先で軽くタッチするゲームと違って 空手はリアルなのよ 道場に見学行けばすぐわかるよ☺️

Boards don't hit back. Those boards were already cut in half and were glued back. The baseball bat, it was also glued.
