The four earliest karate styles developed in Japan are Shotokan, Wado-ryu, Shito-ryu, and Goju-ryu; most styles of Karate are derived from these four. The first three of these styles find their origins in the Shorin-Ryu style from Shuri, Okinawa, while Goju-ryu finds its origins in Naha. Shuri karate is rather different from Naha karate, drawing on different predecessor influences. Shito-ryu can be regarded as a blend of Shuri and Naha traditions as its kata incorporate both Shuri and Naha kata

OSU
Do you mean old school kyokushinkai?
@@majdikamal1389
Yes.
OSS! !! 👊💪💪💪
I love all karate but my favourite is the one I train in called Goju Ryu karate it's a close combat style that uses circular and Lemar moves as well as soft and hard ones too
Have you checked out Uechi Ryu? Sounds like you would like it. Shinjo Kiyohede has carried the torch most high. He’s been the winningest (13 consecutive I believe) in kumite and kata until he retired. ✌🏼🙏🏻

I've been training and teaching American Kenpo fifty years. I've had to use it for self defense six times over the years. It's effective, and it's finished in one move. That only that, it has kept me very limber.

Goju Ryu!!!☝️🔥🔥🔥
I love all styles of Karate, but my most favorite ones are Goju-ryu, Shotokan-ryu, Shidokan, Shorinji Kempo and Wado-ryu. Thanks for sharing, man.
Take care not to speak abt Kenpo beeing a style of Karate if in front of Kenpo practitioners...
Every single karate (or any other martial art) style worth as much as the one who train in and use it! I practice Traditional Shito-Ryu. If you practice karate you can see how much difference can be between two karatekas not only in the same style, but even in the same dojo. These style exist because there aren't two same karate at all. Every single karateka has to find its own style, because we have different body, mind, behaviour, etc.
And finally most of these styles are effective out in the streets, they were tested in many times in the old wild-west kind Okinawa. The recipe was simple: if you've survived, your techniques survived as well. So if you think your style (or any other style) is useless in a streetfight, it's because YOU DOIN' IT WRONG!!!
🔥Shotokan🔥
My son is learning the Shito Ryu style of Karate & is a Dan-3 BB & a Sensei. Like this style as it is graceful with speed & power.
This was great! Very informative. I study Kenpo Karate from one of the Founders Black Belt Grandmaster Dennis Tosten. I was always interested in the basic history of the traditional styles of Karate originatibg in Okinawa and Japan and always thought they were so different from each other. And they are, but I also realized they they are also interrelated because they all influenced each other to some degree. Thanks again for putting this together. I REALLY appreciated it. Take care.
I learned Shorin-Ryu on the 80's and 90's, than i moved to Muay thai and Jiu jitsu. Great style!
I practice Shorin-Ryu. What I love is its true emphasis on self-defence and reality based stances and trainings. It's also very diverse: next to kata and bunkai, we train in full contact kumite and also Kobudo. On a side note, I find Uechi-Ryu a truly fascinating style, I would love to try it out as well, at some point!
I practice shorin-ryu too. Did you notice that in the video, naihanchi shodan appears in shotokan part?
@@anonimo_1222 yes that's because this kata exists in shotokan as wel, however in shotokan it's called Teki-Shodan, and is only taught once you've mastered the 5 first heian katas (or pinan katas in Shorin-Ryu). In Shorin-Ryu it's taught before starting the pinans. In Shotokan the stance of teki-shodan/naihanchi shodan is also much lower than in Shorin-Ryu.
@@vincentestrade1283 wow! thank you for explaining to me :)
I’ve been studying Ed Parker’s American Kenpo Karate up to 80% of my life. So glad it made the top 20. This video is very informative, thank you!
goju ryu...practique ojalá vuelva a practicar y no dejar de hacerlo.
In my opinion, the best style, most traditional and balanced is Itosu-Ryu, from the master Anko Itosu father of Karate, to Kenwa mabuni to Ryusho Sakagami
This style is unique and beautiful, i recommend all to take a look :)
Hey there, I do Itosu Ryu in Osaka :)
@@Josh-dr9dbomg, that's awesome bro
@@HakenV Cheers mate
Ainda bem que é sua opinião somente
Cool video, thanks for making it. I'm a yudansha Shorin-Ryu practitioner and I don't think it matters that much which style of karate you train, as long as you have a good dojo family that is staying connected with the OGs of a good lineage and you train hard and don't quit.
Excelente video y delicado en las reseñas de los maestros. Oss.
Another cool style is Yoshukai. One of the less known styles but it branched off from Chito Ryu. It is similar to Kyokushin in that they do full contact kumite. My state (KY) has one of the few Yoshukai schools here in the USA. Interestingly enough we also have the honbu dojo of Chito ryu.
I train Ryuei Ryu and it would be interesting to also cover styles which we a little more widely known than many of the ones you mentioned in the video from 20 to 10, at least. Thanks
Uechi Ryu 12:30
Isshinryu is has many more dojo's than what is expressed in this video. It is very effective self defense and was used in training with the U.S. Marines.
Shorin-Ryu and Goju-Ryu are the ones I should pick, if I have to pick Karate, because they are close to the similarity of Chinese Martial Arts. Even if it’s too much forgotten and a little modified.
Gracias por el video
I'm a taekwondo(Olympic style), arnis and muay thai practitioner. I like karate. My favorite style of japanese martial arts is Goju ryu, Shorinji kempo, Taido and kyokushin(enshin kaikan style. Joko ninomiya's style)
I love shotokan more because because it is the father of sport karate. I love the kumite possibility it offers and the low stances during kata training
It was Goju kai that created point fighting. Shotokan spread quickly because it is taught in the schools as physical education and as a club sport.
I hate Shotokan's deep, unnatural deep positions. One of the reasons I quit Shotokan. By the way, it's not original and came by Funakoshi's son, Gigo.

Is shotokan the best style?
@@user-xp4ov5od8t The best style is the one you enjoy more. ;)
Shotokan karate is one of the best karate styles
Why than shito ruy karate is world best
I said one of the best not “the best”
SHOTOKAN IS THE BEST, IS ONLY STYLE TRADITIONAL KARATE THAT DONT USE WKF RULES,
Kyukoshin is the better 😍
I took Shorin Ryu Matsumura on Okinawa 1972. We had a Red Belt on the floor at all times. 10 degree
Il meraviglioso karate
Shito Ryu is the best style
Wado forever!!!
Assistindo este vídeo quase chorei, de tão rico e lindo que este é no seu conteúdo.
Good video
But I think, the style Goju-ryu with Chojun Miyagi must be on 1st place!
Kenpo Americano o kenpo karate de Ed Parker no es karate. No tiene relación alguna con el karate japonés (Okinawa). Porque está en la lista? Saludos
Pois é, ao invés de colocar o Karatê Kempo do Ed Parker, era para colocar o Kenyu-Ryu Karate Kempo (Takamassa Tomoyori), que foi o primeiro estilo Karatê implantado na cidade de Belo Horizonte-MG / Brasil na academia Tenri Dojo por Akio Yokoyama.
I train kyokushin karate! OSU!
Goju Ryu and Uechi Ryu look closest to Kung Fu.
Both came directly from China. Kanbun Uechi both learned it and taught it there originally.
Goju-Ryu has many variety of forms from different Crane Kung Fu styles, they even have the Crane Qi Gong, but sadly it’s incorrect or “modified”.
@@carlospayan5638 There's nothing sad about improving it from the original way it was taught in China. As medicine progressed, the founders of karate incorporated scientific analysis into their system. Kanryo Higaonna spent more than 13 years training kung-fu in China - I doubt he learnt "incorrect" kung fu - if he did, it just showed how lousy the Chinese system must have been to spend 13 years teaching a student incorrect stuff. We know Kanryo Higaonna was very successfu in Fuzhou, earning the nickname "KakinKa Toona", which means, in Fujianese, the quick-kicking Higaonna, so he probably didn't learn the incorrect stuff. So people who say the Okinawans didn't learn the correct method are just talking out of their arses - it's more likely that the modern Kung Fu is a watered-down pile of forms, diluted by the communist government during the cultural revolution to make it more like ballet than a fighting system. All talk but no substance.
When Kanryo Higaonna returned to Okinawa he taught Chojun Miyagi, who again spent more than a decade training intensely under Kanryo (most Kung fu students today spend 3 hours a week training and claim to be a teacher after 1 or 2 years). Miyagi served his military service as a medic and he studied some medical science and anatomy in the 2 years he served in Kyushu - and from that, and the Judo and wrestling he had learnt and the karate he learnt from Higaonna, he taught his students a style which eventually he named Goju-Ryu - modified and vastly expanded version compared to Kanryo Higaonna's early version. He systemized it and gave it a formal warm-up exercise system (Junbi-Undo) and then a formalized weights training and power-training system called Hojo-undo - then he created Tensho, to go with Sanchin as the two foundation kata of the system - the principles of what he's done to preserve and expand Goju-Ryu is in keeping with the "Old" Kung Fu system of Southern Chinese Boxing Systems. In fact, when Goju-Ryu masters such as Morio Higaonna returned to China to demonstrate, the Kung Fu masters there marvelled at the things that the Okinawans had preserved while the Chinese had lost. They re-learnt from the Okinawans.
I know, because I was there too.
@@matthews1082 Don’t compare yourself and your style, and don’t take it the offensive way, if you practice martial arts you know that ego and arrogance will take down your spirit. I respect Goju and it’s a style that I would like to learn if I have to chose karate, that’s how humble I will be if there was no other martial arts schools around my town. To be honest I rather learn Okinawa Karate than Japanese Karate because the system is similar to Kung Fu, I like the weapons that they teach because they are Chinese, except the Nunchucks.
I know for a fact that different Chinese schools taught the arts in a different way, depending on the styles, like today Hsing I (Xing Yi) are taught around the Chinese Villages and each school from each village it’s teaching the forms differently, and different teachers are discussing which form it’s original and which one it’s not. Like you say it is lost, than if it’s lost for a long time, how did the Okinawans got the original katas?... Okay, so Kung Fu can be an old car that doesn’t work anymore but Karate is an old car with new parts that still not making the car look original. If you know martial arts you should understand this philosophy.
My Sifu, Beto Briseño, now that he passed away, rest his soul, he knew Goju-Ryu from a teacher that learned in Okinawa, honestly I don’t remember his name but I will ask one of his students. After he came back from Vietnam he learned Kung Fu from Ark Ye Wong, and he learned different Chinese Styles and the most ancient forms that are 5000 years old, Ark Ye Wong knew them, and he was the most respected Chinese teacher, I don’t want to say master because he was a humble man.
I was checking the Goju-Ryu Katas and the Crane Chi Gong (Qi Gong) looks different, more minimalistic, but it’s almost the same when you watch the moves carefully. The Sanchin it’s the Crane stepping routine, the stepping is the same but the hands are different, the Chinese version it’s with open hands. I’ve seen that in other Karate schools, that they practice it with open hands. Crane it’s supposed to be smooth not rigid. That’s why you have to practice soft to attack hard, your arms have to be like a whip. Tai Chi has the same philosophy. I will not give more explanations because conversations will become more difficult. It’s better to find out yourself.
@@carlospayan5638 Yawn....so who said karate was modified and incorrect? To talk about humility after calling a karate style "incorrect" makes you pretentious. And to write all that crap you wrote just makes you sound pompus.But you are just another impressionable Westerner who believes all the nonsense Chinese Kung Fu tells you, for example, the 5000 year history...no Chinese martial art is more than 400 years old.....
Genseiryu is a more or less pure shurite style. It is mainly developed from a rather odd branch in shurite, today known as Kishimoto Di. It is as far as I know unknown what style of karate Shukumines first teacher, Sadoyama Anko, practiced but it is well known that he mainly tutored Shukumine in strength and stamina, not much actual karate. Shukumine also did some Kendo before he started training under the sensei to whom he referred most of his technical knowledge to; Soko Kishimoto, who in turn had learned from Bushi Tachimura.
I trained "Kenyu-Ryu Karate Kempo" which is one of the best styles and is missing from the list.
A few discrepancies in the information. WADO RYU is a direct descendant of SHOTOKAN. not an original form of Karate.
Enshin is a direct descendant of Ashihara Karate.
Otherwise great video 📹
Its combine with kendo moves and a jujitsu style (which I believe had become extinct now).
Not exactly. Its founder Master Otsuka, originally an expert in Jiu-jitsu, studied both with FunaKoshi of Shotokan and Mabuni of Shito-Ryu so Wado-Ryu includes elements of all 3 styles.
What about "Hwang Kee" The founder of Korean Tang Soo Do?
Hello from Bulgaria Sliven city.
Never imagined there is a karate style called shit-o-ryu.
I'm a brown belt Wado Ryu, black belt Kudo (Kyokushin based), and want to learn Uechi Ryu.
Can you tell us about your thoughts on Kudo karate?
@@majdikamal1389 Kudo is a mixed martial art, no longer a style of Karate as it was in the beginning, before called Kakuto Karate. Today it is a mixed and free system at the same time, as this is the profound meaning of this martial art: Kudo means "Way of the Open Mind". Basically, the fundamental martial arts of Kudo are Kyokushin Karate, Judo, Boxing, Wrestling, Muay Thai, Sambo, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. But there are more.
I have practiced Uechi Ryu and am surprised that it made it on the list at all and especially that it made it to number 4. My fellow practitioners often compared our school to Issihin and Wado Ryu and thanks to this great video, now I see the similarities. However, I wish that they had footage of Kanbu Uechi doing more than Sanchin. I want to see him fight another person.
shotokan best style in karate
Not for real life/ self defense situations. Good luck keeping any kind of distance unless your in a controlled environment or out in some kind of open area
@@RyFol717 LOL Nothing is better than Shotokan for self defense. You must be a MMA/BSJJ fanboy.
@@thomaskwiatkowskiesq.328 lol right... shotokan beats a person who trains MMA 🤣🤣🤣 thats hilarious. Thoughts like that might end up getting you hurt in the street
@@RyFol717 You are making a number of incorrect assumptions. The first incorrect assumptions that most MMA/BSJJ fanboys make about Shotokan is that somehow the sparring style that a Shotokan user engages in at a tournament against other Shotokan stylists has anything to do with "real life / self defense". The second one is that MMA/BSJJ would work in an actual self defense situation. Tell that to Jose Campuzano.
@@thomaskwiatkowskiesq.328 not making a single incorrect assumption actually. Train only in karate and you will lose everytime to someone who knows basics of other combat sports/ martial arts that include everything on top of whatever karate knowledge they may have. In the street there are no rules bud. You sound like someone who has never actually been in a fight and are simply repeating what your sensei told you... don't be so closed minded. Or do and see what happens when you get slammed on the pavement 🤷♂️
Interesting video. I practise Shotokan and I agree about competition being detrimental. There's reasonable arguments for, it's good for experiencing pressure and it is as close to a real scenario ( professional aside ) as it can be, within a safe environment but I'm against competition, regardless what I've stated it's not a "real fight". It's two opponents of perhaps similar ability, there's no grappling allowed, ( which is incredibly important ) there are other rules and it starts like boxing, fists up and fight. That said the katas, as I'm sure with other styles, are the real pearls. It's not just about fighting, it's deep
OSS..
My Top:
1. SHOTOKAN RYU.
2. GOJU RYU.
3. SHORINJI KEMPO.
And what about shito ruy karate
What about shito ryu? It's almost like shotokan's twin but yeah i like shotokan the most too
@@lalchungnungaralte9104 @Pramila Bisai, Well, one here debating about the best styles hahaha, and finally the old masters said that there were no styles and that karate was only one
@@kpnj5792 Exactly
@@kpnj5792 Aaaaand you got the point!
Now from where the break dance derived its movements
Cobra Kai is the best style!! Or maybe Eagle Fang 🤔
Hey my base martial art is shorin Ryu thanks for this 15:36

4:07......O Sensei Nagamine with his Matsubayashi-Ryu 🙇🏽♂🙇🏽♂🙇🏽♂🙇🏽♂
Shorin ryu❤❤🙏🙏
in my perspective if an Karateka wants to be sufficient in real life danger situation they should learn 2nd or 3rd martial art so in my option: Kyokushin + Wado Ryu + Sport Sambo/Sambo Wrestling and Shotokan + American Kenpo/Kenpo Karate + Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I'm sorry y'all just brainstorming of what would be effective for Karateka's survival!
I have a question: doesn’t ”karate” mean ”empty hand”? Some of these styles use sticks of different lengths (jo, bo, hanbo) or other weapons (nunchaku, sai, tonfa). Especially the old Okinawan or Chinese based styles. Why not call them budo (martial art) instead of karate (empty hand)?
Karate is the Japanese term of the art, it was called differently back in the days when the art was purely Okinawan.
🔥Wado Ryo🔥
Yeahhhhhhhhhh boiiiiiii
El gran Ausente Shudokan
I like all styles of karate. Shotokan being the style I like the least, could you guys tell me what you like so much about Shotokan?
I guess Shotokan is popular, because it’s a very straight forward style. Also, many katas to practise. Punching is taught unlike in some styles. Even Kyokushin favours kicks and other techniques, Shotokan allows punches to the head. I don’t like Shotokan any more than other styles, I was just trying to answer your question here.
@@seppokangas1488 thanks for your answer man, I appreciate it.
Well Shotokan is cool but to me it's the least practical karate style, the furthest away from the original karate from Okinawa.
The position/stance are waaaaay too deep. Their kata look good but are not practical.
Regarding the punching, I'm not sure I'm following, Wado-Ryu, Shito-Ryu, Goju-Ryu, Kyokushin all do as much punching as they do in Shotokan.
They are good things in Shotokan, I know it's the most popular style but it surprise me that people think that's the best style.
Well of course there's no best style, but Shotokan is the style I appreciate the least.
I respect all karate styles, but the one I currently train in is Kyokushin karate (and damn proud of it) though, about American kenpo? I see it as a martial art of it's own (and not a Karate style) it just doesn't feel like Karate to me!
Karaté Shotokan OSSSSSS
Can anyone tell me which karate style has the least number of katas?
Eagle Fang karate 0 kata
Shotokan is the most popular one, but not one of yhe best. Kyokushin is more effective.
Shorin ryu seibukan❤
Where is tang sop do?
Kyokushin is the only efective karate style in a self-defense situation. I trained this style and Shotokan.
Nonsense, GoJu Ryu is 👑
You should do more kumite videos
There is no such thing as a karate "style" karate is karate, there are just different ways of doing every technique. This emphasis on styles did not come from karate but was shoe horned into karate by the japanese to make it more appealing to the japanese public. Today there are certainly some major differences between different "styles" however, I believe understanding how and WHY these techniques differ is the truest form of karate.
Another season for Pachingko for master Oyama!
Ashihara karaté, Enshin karaté, seidokaikan karaté, kudo daido juku, kyokushin ?
Uechi ryu is best among all
Shobayashi Shorin-Ryu here.
Shito-ryu
Kyokushinkaikan karate best
Eshin ryu (sabaki)🙋
By what criterion are these styles judged? Many lesser known styles are more practical in terms of self defense & real combat training. I've studied American kenpo, shotokan, budokan, gojuryu, & ashihara karate & from what I've found, all of the styles (less so for ashihara) are stuck in the mists of time. They've stopped progressing and as a result, if you stick to one style you'll fall behind the times as well. Get with the MMA bandwagon if you really want to learn how to fight. The techniques in some styles may or may not be effective, but the passive/prearranged training method seems universal to most traditional styles.
MMA only to a degree. A lot of them dont put emphasize enough on street defense. Many think every fight is going to be a one on one challenge fight like some Western cowboy movie.
The top 20 karate egoes.....ahem..._styles_ 😉
I prefer shotokan style its the best for me
BUSHI MATSUMURA-> NABE MATSUMURA ( Grandson) -> SOKEN HOHAN ( His bloodline Nephew) -> SHORIN RYU MATSUMURA ORTHODOX..... the very oldest style on Okinawa.

I'm quite sure Shorin Ryu is older than that
