Gojushiho Dai, Ohta Sensei

"Training in Kata is spiritual as well as physical. In his performance of the Kata, the Karateka exhibits humility, gentleness and a sense of decorum no less than boldness and confidence, thereby integrating mind and body through a singularly unique dicipline".
(Masatoshi Nakayama)

This is probably the best Gojushiho Dai I have ever seen. Just the right combination of speed, timing, force, and stability.

Excellent execution. The best I've seen across all Shotokan schools.

[@spirgtudsrubec7776]

a very underrated Sensei

[@KenpoKid77]

Absolutely wonderful. Tremendous power in technique. Though I don't study a different style of karate, I definitely learn from these videos the importance of power in technique.

Finally a video that isnt shotokan(correct me if im wrong), because I just could not find my style version

[@luapnivels]

@meaks88 This is not "a big mistake"check your information and you will find that JKA (the original) is in fact called Gojushiho Dai and Kanazawa Sensi changed it to Sho when he broke away and formed SKIF as he thought was that this kata's movements reflected the word 'Sho'which means smaller or lessor in Japanese. Here endeth the Shotkan lesson!

[@olafsteinbrecher9519]

This one comes closest to the original Okinawa Gojushiho, so imho most logical to call this one Dai and not the other.

[@paulsmith4701]

Training with a guy that announces it Sho. He is S.K.I trained. Our Sensei is JKA trained so Dai.
