The Land of Karate Episode 3

[@kentishtowncowboy]

The first episode I've seen. I like it. The kata looked very smooth. I've never trained Karate so I've no insight to offer. Mine is a Trad JJ background. I like the drilling - they sweat! which is good. I also noticed that the Sensei had a raised metatarsal bone. Clearly a break resulting from the Shock of contract travelling from his knuckles. Ouch!

from start to finish it is punching not much kicking. In TKD it is kicking from start to finish.

Yeah. TKD is based in Shotokan but focusses more on kicking. Dojangs not doing punches at all are bad though. Poomsae has all the punching. It should be practiced in a practical setting as well.

感謝しています。

It goes on my nerves when katas are changed, as the original meaning gets lost as well.
