- Are you kicking too high in Kata?
Kicks in goju ryu kata are designed to compromise the base and destable the opponent. The kicks are invariably paired with hand techniques that require the opponent to drop forward or down. For this reason, as explained in the video specific (low level) targets are aimed for.

Especially Taekwondo practitioners need to see this. I am fed up with competitors kicking the sky in tournaments -.-

Well, I mean, that's kind of what taekwondo is known for. I think high kicks have their place. My point is that in the context of a karate kata kicks are performed a certain way as part of a combative sequence.
@@GKCgoju not really. Taekwondo is a Korean karaté style, and is based on the Shotokan style. You can see the same problem in Shotokan competitions, especially WKF, where people would do Jodan Kekomi all the time, which is complete non-sense. All of the Jodan Kekomi should be Chudan Keage in Kata.
Be it Taekwondo or Shotokan, people need to understand that kicking high is nice, but not in Kata, because it makes zero sense from a Bunkai perspective, as Kata is not for show.
Understood. For some reason I wasn’t equating taekwondo with kata.
@@GKCgoju juste search for "Koryo". Very popular Kata in Taekwondo competition. You will be vomiting at the kicking level. People don't understand the bunkai at all. They think it's gymnastics.
