Karate In Modern Self-Defense Systems

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAu–oPD9AA We always find it amusing when people claim to create new styles or systems. Ultimately, we’re all human beings therefore all styles are related and restricted by the same laws. This video shows popular modern self-defense systems and their much older counter-parts found in traditional karate. We are a group on a mission to return Karate to its roots through the use of Kata as self-defense.

I appreciate the way karate culture uses their vids to break down the arts.

Colin Smith says:

I think there is deeper information in the forms.

Forms are made up of "sparring sets" – 對打 (dui da):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_martial_arts#Forms_in_Traditional_Chinese_Martial_Arts

A "sparring set" is a paired drill.

=> *A form is an explicit, formalised construction of sets of drills*.

Read chapters 4 & 5:

It gets very interesting from P47.

So kata/forms have an explicit structure: http://www.katapedia.org/wiki/Structure_of_kata

Anthony Clark says:

Any empty hand combat can be called karate.

saeed alshamsi says:

Your both are wonderful. I hope to meet you both in Okinawa someday. The style that I followed is Shorin Ryu Seibukan.

Matt Mosley says:

Another classic upload 😀 These are the videos that everyone neds to see. All the Karate-haters (MMA/BJJ heads) need this in their lives.

Mike Reis says:

Anyone who's been practicing and training martial arts before for all the labels started to flare up like a bad STD, should have already noticed this. Especially since many of those out there utilizing their "Reality Based" system are trained in formal martial arts. They just cut out kata and just added more boxing styled workouts instead. I'm glad you guys show this in your videos it helps those who thought it was a joke…you know because their wannabe MMA buddy said it was…that there's more to the fighting arts than just an MMA gym.

Ali YÜKSEL says:

you should update videos more frequent

Dipayan Degtyarev says:

90% of RBSD is glorified LARPing though.

Altair Félix says:

It´s a fact.

Vega K says:

To study the old is to understand the new.
The old and the new.
It is only a matter of time.
In all things must one have a clear mind.
This is the Way.
Who will pass it on truthfully?

Ottimo! Very good, very intersting! Saluti da Roma, saluti dall'Italia!

Who is the guy at 0:26?

ComplexBlackness says:

You're not going to find Karate instructors like this
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UT6u8tTc9kQ
listen to what he says about violence, how many Instructors tell the kids or their adult students that?

Listen to what this man says
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=nFOC6sfRjeE

My take
what the RBSD instructors in the video are doing is cutting away what most people don't care for. Teaching in a way that one can learn right away, and not take years to learn.

TMA/Karate went wrong, but many karate schools simply do not teach like the RBSD do. Giving the students a false confidence, that will get them hurt.

Most Karate schools have websites with Kids plastered all over. Basically a daycare with kicking. Plus many of the adults don't really want to fight.

It's the westernization of the Art, the money aspect that water it down.

Synergy says:

Been watching your videos for a while now, have to say that I love the cinematic style of editing some of your videos have, especially with some stunning soundtrack choices 🙂 Creates an awesome vibe of disciplined martial practice. Where do you find your soundtracks? Oss!

metalema6 says:

What kata is 0:48 inspired from?

Andrei :D says:

So beautiful!

Storyman says:

Karate works. For that matter traditional martial arts as a whole work. Until modern "new" systems get that they're going to hamper themselves re-learning and re-discovering stuff that arts like Karate have already gotten figured out for years upon years.

Shadow 69 says:

Gotta love karate
