Whilst searching through YouTube, I came across these two videos of Yuchoku Higa (Kyudokan Dojo), who was a student of Chosin Chibana, performing Matsumura No Passai. I remember practicing this very kata back in March 2012 with Arakaki Sensei - himself a student of Higa...needless to say, the experience was awesome!
What struck me most about these video's is that they've been filmed many years apart and upon watching them, it really struck home how we should all strive for karate to become a complete way of life. These videos have certainly inspired me to carry on exploring karate more deeply and I hope they offer you similar insights. Hello, Happy New Year everyone and I'd like to introduce you to some new updates to my website!
One of the main enhancements is this blog page, where I'll be posting regular ramblings, video clips, pictures, insights, useful links plus anything else that inspires me and that I think fellow likeminded karate practitioners will find interesting. As well as some other updates and image additions to a variety of pages, I've also added a free e-book on kata bunkai principles exclusively for new subscribers to my mailing list. Simply visit the home page and sign up for instant download - hope you enjoy the read! |
