    Sensei Hotton is by far the best guest instructor I've had the privilege of being in a class with. Fantastic teacher!

    people dont get the amount of work and reps it takes to get to that level. and the breaths you take during the work, gives u the spirit of whatever you're trying to achieve.

    Rick's insight into Karate is so much advanced...a real Sensei, who mastered the form, found his own (!) "truths" in the art, and defined his (for lack of a better word) "twist" to it. He realized the true meaning of every form, and the importance of harmony of mind, breath, posture, core, tension & relaxation... Very very valuable lessons/insights. Thank You very much for sharing.

    Finally a real great karate master. The high level is always the same and the inner principles of Tai Chi ( the real one) or Xin Yi , or any other martial art, at high level, are always the same. The problem we have in karate is that most of the pratictioners and master still stick to unnatural and wrong way to practice instead of evolve their art. I'm very happy about this video and the principles showed. I'm also very happy about master Hotton I didn't know and I'm very glad to follow him on youtube. This video makes great my day!

    The best explanation for gyaku tsuki i’ve seen so far, as I was trying to find out why my right side gyaku was a little bit off, while my left one was fine. It drove me nuts! Now I can work on the sync with the hips (and the invisible arrow). Exquisite teaching by a man who wants to pass the knowledge on. The definition of a great teacher. Teaching without ego. Thank you sensei Hotton. Hi from Belgium!

    Awesome Karate Do, topped off with words of reality. I enjoy your instructional videos, they are very inspirational and excuse the expression "Meaty"
    Like as to say no frills just to the point. To the audience viewing this video Sensei Rick Hoton is one of the very few most knowledgeable and capable Karateka
    Whom is willing to share his art / lifestyle / world free of charge here on UA-cam.
    We are very lucky to have access to his methodology for training.
    Sensei Rick Hoton is world renowned and well respected by all in the Karate world. I personally have yet to meet Sensei Hoton but I do look forward to in the near future.
    To all students and would be students of Karate Do, I wish well.

    Thank you for sharing your voice and thoughts on UA-cam for the furtherance of the larger Shotokan community.

    His deep exploration into karate is amazing, but it cannot be taught only in one day seminar. One should really learn from him for years continuously. Otherwise it wont stick. One day seminar with him probably inspire the students to start one's own long journey

    Rick, amazing to see all your videos. I always wondered what happened to you. Last time I saw you we were training nunchaku in your Sarasota dojo. I always considered you a good friend. Looking back I guess we have know each other more than 30 years since Lori and Maas Brothers. Scary how fast time has passed. Would love to hear from you.

    Hotton Sensei, did you happen to know Baranoski Sensei from Florida Karate Academy in Ft Lauderdale? I trained there early 80's, your focus and power remind me so much of his, the snap of his punch would leave red marks on your chest from the ghi smacking you :). I remember him telling us when he trained in Japan, they did floor exercises with someone on their shoulders.

    "My hip, pressing into my elbow". Wow. And when he said "Aikido"..I thought "I knew it!". He obviously has had extensive training in some form of internal art. I've never seen such advanced movement in a pure Karate practitioner. The Deep knowledge. At :48 in, that little twisting redirection of his arm? That's a whole seminar on principles of movement.....If you are training with this instructor, you are lucky indeed.

    Karate, in my opinion, should be kept simple. Sensei shows his spiritual side and passion in this session. He gets his points over well, with excellent detail and communication skills. On courses that I have attended in the past, I have found it frustrating that some of the Japanese Sensei's fail to get their points across. I'm afraid that training by snapping the joints is going to cause problems later on in life. I now have to train with a more softly approach with no snapping, no cracking sounds from my gi and relativity little kime. As one gets older the approach to training alters.
