In Kata time is always working for you when you are patient. Nothing is difficult if you do not be perfecte the first time. It is my experience after I Began at 72. Time time works works patience patience... 🥵🥵👍🤛🤛
Very detailed explanation of Saifa. I am still working on it after 45 years. I was awarded San Dan by Chinen Teruo sensei. Thanks for mentioning him in your videos.
Truly that is the best mindset - I always laugh when a blue belt tells me they're "done" with Saifa. Saifa still has many secrets for those willing to dig. Ché tries to honour Sensei Chinen's memory every day - it was truly a great loss to the karate world. If only we had had more time with him. I'm so sorry I never got to meet him, but I can see his genius live on in my husband's work and in the books he wrote. A complicated man, like all great karate men, but nonetheless the fact that his karate survives all over the world is proof of his legacy. Thank you so much for taking the time to watch and comment!

Goju Ryu Karate Centre I do have one question your Katas are sport and not traditional?? I ask this a a former practitioner of. ( Sensei DON WARRENER 4 th dan I believe in 1985 ish) Hamilton Ontario Canada. I ask as I'm trying to rebuild my former knowledge. I joined the military in 89 and was never able to follow a consistent path of training..
We only focus on traditional Goju Ryu kata - in fact we aren't part of the local tournament scene at all! It takes so much time to focus on getting a kata truly right, after all. As you go through our kata videos, you'll get a feel for how we approach kata, as well as our lineage 🙇🏻♀️
Well done indeed. You guys are going a great job. And we are greatful for the hard work
Thank you so much, Barbs! 🌻

Great video ,I wish you where my senses 35 years ago.
I would of learned a lot quicker or at least not thought of a Kata as a useless dance... I know better now.
We are so honoured by this lovely comment 🙇🏻♀️
The important thing is that you are still making your way up the karate mountain, and sometimes we meet new guides as we go :)

I do have one question your Katas are sport and not traditional??
I ask this a a former practitioner of.
( Sensei DON WARRENER 4 th dan I believe in 1985 ish) Hamilton Ontario Canada.
I ask as I'm trying to rebuild my former knowledge.
I joined the military in 89 and was never able to follow a consistent path of training..
I like being a traditionalist
We only focus on traditional Goju Ryu kata - in fact we aren't part of the local tournament scene at all! It takes so much time to focus on getting a kata truly right, after all. As you go through our kata videos, you'll get a feel for how we approach kata, as well as our lineage 🙇🏻♀️
Goju Ryu Karate Centre yes agreed
