What an amazing vid. I’m just digging back into karate (well technically, Chung do Kwan) and this is incredibly helpful👌🏿

Great video. It is interesting that the hand position you keep coming back to through out the video, elbows in hands out, is very similar to the Kamae position found on Uechi Ryu Sanchin. I personally grew up on and teach Shotokan Karate but have dabbled in Uechi Ryu here and there and I often ask if Sanchin should be brought into my teaching as a fundamental Kata. What is the first Kata taught in your style?

Can anybody guide me on how to apply this Hara conection in kendo and iaido? I would be very very grateful. Thank you Sensei Hayashi for your insights in this video.
