Lol this is a slow motion... With the true speed, his jo is fast enough to knock out or to puncture anybody... And a jo is just a wooden weapon to practice... it's supposed to be a spear or a sword. Even with a slowmotion it's hard to read his moves... It's kind of scary actually :)
This is slo-motion. Lol. Find a Florida video of him at full speed, it’s just about in-human. Finishes with him using the jo to toss Yamada Sensei around like a rag doll.
Craig Hocker I have seen it’s a slow motion lol, but it seems to me that it’s just a movements by his arms. The strikes don’t start from his center. This is my opinion.
@@yoshimitsu72 Maybe sometimes, But if you see a similar jo-kata from O-Sensei, it is the same.. more arms than center at some points in the kata.. It seems to be mostly Jo.. follow the Jo..
this is exactly as we are taught in the Oregon KI Society - Jo nage #1
Awesome!! Thanks for sharing!
masterpiece
Very different from jo kata of Saito sensei. I don’t like these because they seems to me without power.

yoshimitsu has a valid point in that Ki Society's emphasis was on natural flow and movement rather than form based strength.
