- This video takes a look at several major Goju-Ryu organizations today, and briefly covers their connections to the founder of Goju-Ryu, Miyagi Chojun Sensei. This is the first in my new series "History of Goju-Ryu", where I aim to look at the founding, features and impacts of the karate style that gave me my introduction into the karate world.

In the original cut of this video, I mistakenly claimed that Higaonna Morio's Sensei Miyagi An'ichi was a son of Miyagi Chojun Sensei. In actuality, they bear no relation. This was brought to my attention by a kind commentor.
I am A member of Nisei Goju Ryu which was founded by Grand Master Frank Ruise who was a student of Peter Urban. I have been training for the past 29 years and still going on. Thank you for sharing this history
Joshua Espinal cool where is your dojo located, I’m from the Rainier Beach Karate Club , in Seattle wa , a Goju - Kai school , I was a student of Guy Kurose 6th Dan , rip, he was also the Japanese collegiate full contact karate heavyweight champion for two years , when he attended Tenri University in Japan
@@oldschoolkarate-5o its located on 7th St., Manhattan, NY city which is the Nisei Goju Ryu headquarters. There are many other dojo‘s across the country and on some of the United States territories. I studied under Professor Louis a Jackson who at the time was a sixth Dan Ruku Dan Kyoshi Shihan at that time before he created his own branch of that style. I kept studying under him as well as Grand Master Wilfredo Roldan 10th Dan Who is the current grandmaster of the Nisei system. Although he just passed away this past Christmas and now we are waiting to see who will be the new grandmaster of the system
Joshua Espinal , Peter urban was a legend , that’s great your training from his system
I have only recently found this channel, but it is already a gem for me. I studied Goju Ryu under the Chillemi Brothers, Jim and Bob, at New York Goju Karate Association and later Bob Chillemi's American Goju Karate. As far as I know Jim Chillemi studied with Peter Urban. Regardless, great channel! Thank you!
I started learning the shotokan for about 2 years when I was 13 y.o.
After those 2 years I started goju ryu (gojukai) and I have never stopped. Now, almost 30 years later, I have the privilege of watching a young man doing what nobody has done: sharing important and authentic information about karate. Thanks.
Regards from Brazil.
I am Dr. Rohinton Mehta from India . Very short yet succinct video. Gives a good bird's eye view of Goju history.
But you missed out the late Masanobu Shinjo (The Bull of Goju) and his Okinawan Goju ryu Shobukan.
I did USA Goju! So happy to hear it reped
I learned this art when I was 15 years old in Arizona. My Sensei was sensei Spalding. I worked with him for 3 years I also wrestled in high school and Junior so I Incorporated all of his teachings into my wrestling as well. I am legally blind so that means when I was training with him and I was training as a wrestler in high school I did not have contacts or glasses I was blind basically I literally lived off of what a person would do towards me I could not see eye contact I could not see anything other than the person's motions in front of me. I could not see a time clock or a ref. I just did what I was taught. With that I was able to achieve the fastest pin in middle school history in Arizona. 9.3 seconds. At the weight of 189 lbs. It's an accomplishment that I earned. I could not have done it without this practice. P.s. this was in 1999. ✌️🙏 Also look up danial Spalding. You will love it
There are 2 main Goju-kai organizations. The first one was the original pre-war Gojukai which later became the JKF Gojukai after the world. It was founded by Yogi (Chojun's student from Okinawa who went to University) together with Yamaguchi Gogen, with the blessing of Chojun Miyagi, The later/larger organization headed by Yamaguchi Gogen was a breakaway after the 2nd World War.
I think you mean Yagi, Yogi is a bear
fantastic education im getting here.mind blowing.im frm india.doing seigokai,a style derived frm goju.
Hi. I'm from Mexico and when l started practicing Karate-Do it was in a Yuishinkan Goju-Ryu dojo. Yuishinkan was founded by Kisaki Tomoharu, one of Miyagi Chojun students. Yuishinkan headquarters are stablish in Osaka. Sadly the Yuishinkan representative for the American Continent Sasaki Toshiro Sensei passed away recently due Covid-19.
Thanks for the info, I’m taking USA GOJU in NYC now.
Why?
There is also the Okinawa’s Goju ryu Kenkyu Kai founded by Masaji Taira sensei student of mayizato

Sensei Lawrence Kashar Johnson
Hi, where are you located in Atlanta? I’m taking GOJU in NYC in Harlem but I also live in Henry county a good part of the year.
No mention of the Shobukan ( Masanobu Shinjo) or Tanzenbukan founder Anthony Marquez
Thank you. No one ever mentions (masanobu Shinjo )
Excuse me, but who is Anthony Marquez?
Shobukan was my school. VERY traditional. Many a student passed out from the intensity. Our sensei would crank the heat in Summer to make our conditions like those of Okinawa. I remember some of the masters coming over from Okinawa. Taira Sensei, Nakasone Sensei. This was in New Jersey. Never got to meet Shinjo Sensei, he passed away shortly after I started. I had heard his style was the closest to Master Miyagi's. This training saved my life...
Osu brother do you have any info on Seijin Nakamoto Sensei who as per the IOGKF website helped design the Kenkon symbol along with An'Ichi Miyagi Sensei and Higaonna Sensei.
If you are going to make a video on the "history of goju ryu organizations, The FIRST ones you should have started with are Higa Seko Sensei - who was the REAL only student to receive Shihan title from Miyagi Sensei, Then Yagi Sensei, Miyazato Sensei and Toguchi Sensei. The people you mentioned first should have been mentioned after the information of these Master who are the Pillars of Goju Ryu. Higaonna was a student of Miyazato Sensei. His organization was NOT a good place to start, because it gives him more importance than the MAIN branches. If anything, Hokama Tetsuhiro Sensei has more credence, knowledge and skill than any of the others from the second generation. Gojukai is a sub-branch and Urban's versions is an offshoot of that. You are going to have to make certain things clear in your videos regarding these issues so new prospective students have accurate perspectives. They need to be able to make decisions based on accuracy so no one is shortchanged.
I train in the OGKK, Okinawa Goju-Ryu Karatedo Kyokai. As far as I know this one one also was made by Miyazato but im not certain if anyone knows please correct me.
Anichi Miyagi Sensei was not one of Miyagi Sensei's sons.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention, it somehow didn't come up in my research. I've edited out that element, and will add a pinned comment explaining the mistake as soon as possible.
@@GojuRyuPhilosopher Morio Hygaonna was a student of Eichi Miyasato until 7th dan, an ichi miyagi was also a jundokan student. you should investigate who gave hygaona morio 8th, 9th and 10th dan. That would be interesting.
@@L0b0ccs There is more to it than that. Any _dans_ awarded after 4th _dan_ are based on years of PROVEN experience. Usually the degree is granted by a ruling government body.
Martial Arts organizations are carefully controlled to prevent subversive elements from starting a guerrilla war.
@@L0b0ccs are you implying he is not a real 10th dan?
@@L0b0ccs On 29 May 1984, Higaonna received his 8th dan and 9th dan promotions from Yuchoku Higa with Higa acting in his capacity as the President of the Okinawan Karate and Kobudo Association (This is one of several umbrella organisations in Okinawa under which most Okinawan karate organisations and schools eventually became members of including the IOGKF. The four umbrella organisations subsequently merged in 2008 to form the Okinawa Dentou Karate Shinkoukai.
Higaonna Sensei received his 10th Dan certificate, awarded by An´ichi Miyagi Sensei on September 5th, 2007. Higaonna Sensei also received a special certificate signed by Aragaki Shuichi Sensei and Miyagi An´ichi Sensei (both direct students of the founder of Goju-Ryu, Chojun Miyagi Sensei) that recognises him as a student in the direct line descended from Miyagi Chojun Sensei.
Personally I actually do Kyokushin karate IKO-1 but I am some what familiar with some of the student in Peter Urban's Brooklyn Goju students. What Goju Ryu Organization do you study under?
You are wrong, Aichi Miyagi is not the son of Chojun Miyagi Sensei, it just happens to be the same name
You left out Okinawa Goju-ryu Karatedo Kyokai (OGKK) which one of the largest Goju-Ryu Organizations in the world.
Maybe there was a good reason to leave OGKK out of the picture.
@@raymondfrye5017 Why is that? Please, elaborate
The gym I’m looking to join the master is under yagi meitetsu( 8th Dan ) and yagimeitoku that’s cool
The Goju Kan from Hawai'i. Don't forget that before martial arts came to the U.S, many of the masters fro Asia were already training and teaching in Hawai'i. Guys like Masichi Oshiro
I’m wondering if you’d go in-depth on Shorei-Kan. Toguchi sensei only wrote two books and it would be of interest you you could elaborate more on the style. Thank you.
Who alongside Meitoku Yagi Sensei was teaching while Chojin Miyagi Sensei was still living?
Seko Higa was the only Miyagi student allowed to teach while miyagi was alive.
You mentioned 2 other organizations your latest video that you HD studied. May I ask what they were?
Anyone here go to Sensi Tibons dojo?
Hi Ethan!
yup
Do you talk about the different schools Meibukan seigokan and IKGA?
Are you familiar with Goju Ryu Karate-do Seiwakai? Just wondering.
👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Hi, I am be to your channel.I request,can you introduce those kata's from white belt to black belt?
I would love to do a spin-off series where I cover the history of the 12 core Goju-Ryu katas! Since every lineage has unique kihon kata, I might not be able to cover every single one, but the 12 taught by Miyagi Sensei are universal.
Can't wait🙂
@@GojuRyuPhilosopher lets do it, i can help you if you need me. Sensei Kashar
@@GojuRyuPhilosopher 13 katas if you include Kanryo Higaonna Sensei's turning Sanchin.
Talk about Shorei-Kan Goju Ryu Karate.
Also, maybe in one of your video you can talk about who this guy is.

My next History of Goju-Ryu will be on Toguchi Sensei, the founder of Shorei-Kan. That video will go live this Saturday.
That is Taira Sensei. He is a senior practitioner of the Jundokan lineage. His teacher was Eiichi Miyazato.
FYI - Goju Ryu Kenwakai from the Top!!!!!!!!!! ONLY TRADITIONAL!
😜who told you that?🤣
@@raymondfrye5017 my Goju History and lineage!!! Google.....let me know?
Whoops! IOGKF is a fraud organization and Morio Hiagonna is a fraud. His 10th dan is fraudulent as is his claim that he trained under the founder of goju. He was actually a student of Miazato Sensei and only made it to fourth dan with him. Miazato Sensei had gone on record in an interview with this fact
What proof do you have on that?
la información brindada en este video es errónea al 100%...una verguenza
You would do well to study the history of Chojun Miyagi's school. You will discover that there was no student of Miyagi, of his students nor disciples called Gogen Yamaguchi.
May I direct you to the fourth video in this series, Yamaguchi Jitsumi, which explains the connection that Yamaguchi had with Miyagi and the controversies about Yamaguchi's organization.
@@GojuRyuPhilosopher I saw your video about Yamaguchi. I still maintain he never studied under any student of Miyagi. He was selling to American military that he was a Grandmaster. He paid Black Belt magazine to write articles about him and Goju Kai.
Where did you get these pre-war sources?
@@raymondfrye5017 All my sources are listed in the descriptions of videos. In this series, at least, I'm trying to be more or less neutral about the controversial aspects of these people's heritages, but in other videos, you can catch how I feel about whether their accounts are reliable. However, I don't want to insult anyone whose lineage comes from Goju Kai, so I've kept these videos more neutral.
@@GojuRyuPhilosopher I understand your position. I was a student in Okinawa 1959-1963. I lived with my family in Machinato-Naha. It was after this time in 1968 when I started in Shoreikan until 1973.Later, it was Kodokan Karate.
During this time very few second dan and higher level kata were taught. Why not? To prevent precisely what happened later,when everybody announced that they were 10th dan Grandmasters only expert in fighting, no kata.
They had very poor to non-existent technique except for some 1st-year judo, punches and kicks.Some got killed believing they were knife proof.
So you will understand why I opposed the adulteration of karate. There were no competitions then in Okinawa only demonsrations. Tournaments were money makers for Japanese and US businessmen
