This guy is really good, hope he gets more views.
The channel has grown a little now!
@Onur Genc thanks!
Totally agree.
I agreee!
This is probably the best video I have seen yet on this stance. I’ve never seen the double hip boost before. It’s remains a challenge for me but your video has helped greatly. Also, the video on how to spare with a larger opponent was just what I was looking for! I was disappointed that you don’t have more videos. I really hope you post more, and continue not to forgot about us mid-lower ranks.
Thank you so much! Please share share share!
Like many other commenters here, I'm blown away with how well this tutorial is. I went from not knowing a thing about this stance to feeling like I have a solid foundation to start learning and practicing it. Thanks a ton!!
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
This was so helpful thx so much I have been suffering at this stance...Love from the Philippines
Haha yesss! Glad you liked it!
From Philippines
Here too
The best video of kokutsu dachi. Yoshihara Massahiro from Brazil. Osu!
Excellent! Please, make videos with the requirements to obtain the firts belt.
I've made a 10kyu video!
What should be the distance between two legs? Please answer.
This stance finds muscles you don’t use - thanks for excellent explanation ❤
詳細の説明がわかりやすく
すんなりと脳と身体が合致し
練習に変化が出ました。
ありがとうございます。
アメリカで空手を習っていますが
さすが日本人ですね、
教え方が上手です。🙇🏻♀️
そうなんですね！わかりやすくてよかったです！
OMG 😃😃 I never thought I would get such the best Karate teacher 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Kudos to u sir! 🙏🙏😭😭
Greetings from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Osss!! Best Chanel I found here.
OSU! I Use Karate stances for leg conditioning. I use a kickboxing stance for bag work :) thanks for the tutorial :)
Great mixture!
I’ve studied karate several years and this answers so many questions for me.
Your videos helps me a lot. Every kata I learn, I watch the corresponding tutorial to improve my movements! Congratulations and many thanks from Brazil 🇧🇷
Personally I like back stance. I was lucky in the beginning that my feet automatically went 90 degrees. So at least I didn't have to fight with that. You really teach strong fundamentals. Strong fundamentals are so important. You can't skip over things in karate because they are are difficult to learn. That's kinda half of it. Just like half of a belt test is surviving the belt test. Good job.
Thanks!
You usually hear each of these tips in the dojo individually and they're so scattered, thank you for bringing them all into one place and one video. This will be my bible for back stance, which yes, I hated until I saw this video and felt like I could do it better. The breakdown was awesome, subscribed and will share. Thank you!
that part about turning your head and twisting to lead the turn...I wish someone had shown me that years ago! that's incredible!
I have no ideea on how did i found your Channel. I really think that you are gifted. - your talent is to explain mathematically ,in a scientific way. Please consider a carrer as teacher in any,....absolutly...any domain you wish. And by the way: thank you so much for your kumite strategies and tactics.
Wow! Thank you so much for your comment! I really try my best to logically break down the movements, so it’s great that you’ve noticed that point :) I hope you’ll enjoy my future videos as well!
Thank you so much for this. This explanation is so perfect and so deep. 100% technical it has everything we needed. Thanks again
Excellent tutorial. You sound exactly what my sensei tells me to do to work on the kokutsudachi. Of course this stance takes a lot of practice to do well. All about muscles memory and practicing in front of the mirror. What helped me a ton was staying low with all my stances to be able to finally do this stance properly. Needed a lot of conditioning.
I love this Sensei's breakdown of these kihons.
Excellent presentation and articulate.... Love from India
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
I'm going back to do karate next week after i cut it for 8 years, and your videos are the best to practice some techniques and moves, you're so good and I'm gonna watch all your videos and learn more😭😭
Also a tip that my sensei told me about is : "make sure your knees are pointing outwards"
Thanks sensi..😊 it's a great help for me
From Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
Thank you so much for this , i am learning ( sotokan karate ) I make mistakes again and again in this place, seeing this I will practice today
Amazing explanation. Meaningful
… your tutorials are great… so helpful… such a good explanation of the role of the hip- thank you so much for your time and effort!!!
Greatings from Germany…
This is the best Kokutsu dachi tutorial ever!!!!😊
Thank you for explaining it so well!
Correct and best video I have ever watched. Thanks master.
Thank you so much always had difficulty with this stance
This is a really challenging stance for me to get used to! I’ve been doing Ryukyu Kempo for 7 years, and this stance doesn’t even insist in our style. In our katas that would have this stance in them, generally we’ll either do a cat stance, or a diagonal horse stance.
Very good explanation. I have recommended this video to my students for their home training.
Great!
You are a life saver 🙏 ありがとうございます
Great help! I have 7th kyu grading in a week and have previously struggled turning in back stance. Many thanks.
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
Thank you Sensei! All respect!🙏
I am from Guatemala city, Central America, I practiced only two years shito ryu, in 1991.
And I started to train in 2018 at 47 years old.
But its to dificult to me to learn shoto kan positions and this video its going to help me too much.
God bless you
that was very good. thank you
I actually love this stance especially when practicing my Kata in front of a mirror. lol Perhaps I was too overconfident when I was young but who doesn't love this stance in front of a mirror. Now at 35 life has actually humble me. Thank you Sensei Nagano for always bring me back home with your videos.
I learn seigo Kai karate do
Great tips!
Excellent video! I am facing some trouble in my kokutsu dachi due to ankle limitations and your video helped me a lot. Oss!
You teach very understandable 👌🌻☀️
I move like a maniac in a freestyle kind of way. Seeing Karate and how movements surrounding self defence are named and executed, makes me want to focus more on specific movements. It is also a very good introduction at least, for those who are looking to have control over their body like a samurai and be better equipped thus physically and a great deal mentally for combative situations. Japan is nice! Much respect from the Netherlands. Osu! 👊
No problem! Thanks for checking the video out!
Thank you for this!
Your videos are very helpful ..! I followed your instructions while practicing Kokutsu Dachi. My stances got little improved. I will practice more and more to be good on these stances. 😊
Awesome!
Thanks again for the wonderful tips Sensei.
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
Thank You!
Thank you so much sir
Excellent training....osss
Outstanding
This help me lot
Thank you so much - your videos are really helpful - I hope you will do more.
I constantly upload videos, so please check out my recent ones as well!
This video will help me a lot, i strugle so much with this stance.
I'm glad!
Only two functional requirements for kokutsu: 1) Your front leg cannot be swept; 2) you can resist you opponent's attempt to run over you from the front. Regarding 90 degree orientation: Your feet are shaped like wedges. The 90 degree angle should be measured against outside edge of rear (standing) leg, not the inside edge closest to the front foot. Those with flexible ankles can tighten this angle slightly more than 90. When you allow your rear foot to point to the rear (angle greater than 90), you cannot resist a strong force coming into your body from the front. Test these functional principles with an opponent. If your kokutsu cannot meet these fundamental combat requirements, it doesn't matter how good you think it looks. Build your stance and understanding from realistic testing, not from a mirror.
Excellent! Thank you!
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
I really like the kokutsu Dachi. :)
I struggle so much with this stance idk why it's just so hard for me to do but your videos help so much thankyou☺️
You got this! It's hard for everyone at first!
Nice you are a karate master
Great video!
About the weight relation between the legs: In Wado we were told the same 70/30, but now that I train traditional shotokan, it makes more sense to have a weight distribution of every stance 50/50 (even in Neko Ashi Dachi). It might look like one leg has more weight than the other, but you should pull the leg muscles toward the center of your gravity, which should always be right below your groin/spine pointing to the ground. After understanding this approach, which takes into consideration body dynamics, your stances will be more stable and therefore the punches more grounded.
Nice, knew some, but not all of it. Thank you!
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
Your videos are very useful. Well done and keep up.
Thank you!
Excellent demonstration, it is really helpful for me, I had problems to move forward. Sensei OSS
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
Very informative video, Please post more, Thank you.
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!

Este análisis me ayuda mucho porque Kokutsu Dachi es muy difícil para mi (tengo 45 años y mis rodillas no son lo que eran, jajajaja).
Muchas gracias y saludos desde Panamá.
jaja no problemo! Gracias!
I love kokutshu dachi
Good for you!
I practice kokutsu dachi/ zenkutsu dachi/ and kiba dachi everyday.
Awesome!
@@KarateDojowaKu i also fallow up my uke waza with wieghts and atemi with sand bags and home made makiwaras... My father loved karate RIP and so do i... 🙏 gassou rei
Love your explanation, what kind of karaté are you practicing? Kokutsu dachi is a little bit different in shito ryu but the spirit remains the same
Thanks for your dedication to explain it to us 👍🏽
I do shotokan!
Thx
No problem! Thanks for checking it out!
Besides knife hand strike, what can you do from back stance?
This is s great tutorial. One question though- When you shift forward do you shift the front knee forward a bit to adjust body center first before you pull with the hips, or is it done at the same time?
I think it's at the same time. But wow! What a high level conversation@
Thanks for the explanation. When I first learned Kokutsu Dachi in 1966, we did it with the feet at 90 degrees as you demonstrated. When I came back to train after I got out of the Army, Mr. Ohshima had adjusted the feet at little so the back foot would only be 45 degrees to the right of the front foot. I don’t remember ever getting an explanation of why the change was made and it always puzzled me. When I started my own Dojo, I continued to think about it and discovered that the back foot being only 45 degrees from the front foot allowed my back hip to come forward more easily for a reverse punch. I don’t know if that was Mr. Ohshima’s thinking or not, but it made sense to me. It could be that the adjustment was made because American hips tend to be not as flexible as Japanese hips. What is your thinking as to why your tradition has the front foot extended beyond the front knee. It has always seemed a vulnerable position for the front knee.I trained in a JKA (Nishiyama) Dojo for a year before opening my Dojo. Occasionally, juniors would ask me for advice on form. Once a guy did Kokutsu Dachi and asked my opinion. Instinctively, I told him to get his front foot back below the knee. Then I immediately apologized to him and told him that I came from a slightly different tradition and told him to ask his Dojo Seniors for form advice as I didn’t want to tell him the wrong thing.
Are you a Sensei, you Have a dojo I Have a question for you how apply kokutsu dachi on free sparring?
@@giuseppebonelli Great question! Mr. Ohshima used to say that there are two tests for a good back stance, 1. You can kick with the front let without having to pull your hip back (If you have to pull your hip back, your hip is too far to the front), 2. You can resist a certain amount of pressure from the front without being pushed backward (If you cannot resist pressure from the front, your hip is too far back). You have to work out where that exact position is on your own as it is a matter of being able to FEEL it. As I got older and (presumably) slower, I started to use back stance during Kumite. It worked quite well. If my opponent rushed at me unexpectedly, I could use my front leg like a jab to keep them off. If I lifted my front foot just a fraction off the floor, my hip would automatically fall forward giving extra force to a front hand attack or reverse punch, etc.. It was very frustrating to many of my opponents. Let me know how it works for you. Again, great question!
How does belt grading work in Okinawa? Do you have a test or do you just have to practice and practice to get the belt?
Um vídeo muito bom. Faltou exemplificar o movimento de ida e de volta em mais de uma passada. Mas um vídeo excelente.
Sir may I ask you what is the reason why your bending your knees in your stance?
Is there different styles of ko kokutsu dachi? Just wondering because in my syllabus it says the rear foot should be at 45 degrees instead of 90 and the heel of the front leg lifted..😅
Hello, could you clarify, the issue of turning the base foot on the heel, and not on the tip. there are those who turn it on the tip of the foot. and others on the heel.
Omg that's so hard😂😂
haha you'll get used to it!
I came from Paolo and I don't do karate but how is your posture so good lol.
In karate, you always have to keep your posture good. So I guess I was trained in that sense.
Sensei please you can do a video with a explanation of how you use a kokutsu dachi in a fight?
before you go for a counter, you shift your weight to the back leg to make distance. That's kokutsu dachi!
I'm looking for how to mawate in back stance. This isn't mentioned in this video. Do you swivel on your heel or the ball of your foot?
Plz send all Kata vedios, step by step plzzzz
I have all of the heians and 2 tekkis so far!
why hate i like everything in karate it's hard but i like it
👍
where are you from ? i wold like at a tour for your dojo ! let me see your dojo in the video next, please. see you 😀
The kokutsu dachi is different in my style which is a Kyokushin offshoot. It looks closer to the nekoashi dachi(cat stance). Only the front leg is out further.
In my original dojo--which was a Taekwondo based style) the back stance looked more like what you displayed in this video. Quit honestly these two are my other favorite stances.
Speaking of my favorite stances will you ever demonstrate the sanchi dachi?
In shotokan, they are called Hangetus Dachi! Hopefully in the future!
How does one get to train with you!!?
The intro got me off guard
It’s so difficult in Heian Shodan after a turn.
wow ..
haha thanks!
How to move the hands plaese?
