Encyclopedia of Goju Ryu Part 8

Description: Encyclopedia of Goju Ryu Part 8by Morio Higaonna Contents: Applications of Gekki Sai, Saifa, Seiyunchin, and Shisochin The originators of karate knew that mastery of the fighting method came from the perfection of the kata coupled with a profound understanding of their applications, and they jealously guarded this knowledge from outsiders. In the modern karate movement that developed following the public debut of the art, what little was known of the kata applications or bunkai was almost lost in the rush to make karate a sport. In this professional production, Goju Ryu master Morio Higaonna shows in great detail how the movements of these kata are applied (bunkai) in order to overwhelm and defeat an opponent. The author emphasizes that Goju Ryu karate is still firmly based on training methods that are as traditional as they are practical. This program presents a detailed analysis of the applications of the Gekki Sai kata, Saifa, Seiyunchin and Shisochin. Running time approx. 65 min. It is impossible to teach the most sophisticated and effective methods of karate to large groups of students, in a quasi-military setting. These "secrets," which are the core of the Goju Ryu system, can only be transmitted from master to student by means of personal instruction for traditional karate's teaching methodology is, and always has been, for the tuition of individuals. To truly master karate one also needs to receive instruction at a much higher level than the majority of students can ever experience. That is the purpose of this program and those that will follow it-to make available to everyone, individual instruction, at the highest level, from the world's leading exponent of Goju Ryu karate. Author Morio Higaonna is the student of An'ichi Miyagi, who studied exclusively with the Founder of Goju Ryu karate, Chojun Miyagi.
