A great teacher realizes he has never stopped being a student.

My sensei was an old man, nearly 87. The power and technique he exerted without force was incredible. Respect to him was not because of his age, respect to him was of his vast knowledge of efficient execution. RIP!

Love how he refers to tai-chi, and other forms of kung-fu. Great masters like Wong Fei-Hung, Ip Man or Bruce Lee all understood the value of various styles of martial arts and not to be bound or stuck in a pure doctrine of a single style. Fascinating.

It's gentlemen like this sensei and the respect and friendship shown by the students which make me prefer traditional martial arts over current popular disciplines.  The wisdom and life philosophy are much more important to me than anything.

In `1953, I was stationed in Kadena AFB, Okinawa. I took Judo and Karate then. My instructors in Judo were, the Chief of Police Mr. Yamakawa, Mr. Ohama, Second in command in the Police Department, their instructors of the police at that time: Mr. Tomasito in Judo, a huge man, and Mr. Miyasato, a 7th dan, in the art of Karate. I was priviledged to have been invited by Mr. Yamakawa to continue my Judo training with the Naha police, my instructor then Mr. Tomasito, and then, was introduced to Karate, my instructor Mr. Miyasato. These happened during my las three months of my stay in Okinawa. I was in the Air Force, stationed at Kadena AFB. The reason these people took to me was because I was short in hight, 5'3"" tall, like them and I was extremely fast in my movements. I became a Brown Belt during a tournament in which I bested two American Marines and then lost to an Okinawan young black belt. I got my belt though. I cherish that year and a half stationed there and to have been taught the Martial Arts by those wonderful and professional Okinawans. I am 91 years old and I still practice my Katas. TSgt USAF Retired.

He has a lot of wisdom to pass on. I would be honored to have a sensei like him.

Sun shines eternally on the teacher who shares wisdom near children. Thank you for the video and the lessons

He's so smart and humble, and still going strong for his age 💪

Sou preta de Taekwondo, azul de Hapkido e atualmente treino Thai, meus respeitos as Karatê arte milenar…

Нападающего тяни  Падающего  толкни.. Выверенные   движения,знания- сила!! настоящий  мастер  не  бьет людей  и истинное  мастерство  заключается  в   отсутствии  тебя  при боевых     событиях.

いいビデオ。 よくできていて、良い情報や空手。 いつも見ていて嬉しいです。 武道は体と心に良いです。

I love his reply that "he don't know if he can defeat them until he actually fight". Despite being a karate master, he gives such measured and humble reply. Perhaps precisely because he is a karate master, he knows the limits of his mastery of his own art and that for every mountain, there are yet higher mountains 一山還有一山高。

Yes, that moment if you give it a name, "nothing" it is "something", so don't try to think/be "nothing", be "something", observe that "something", accept it and be content and in peace with "something", you will notice, that it slowly fades away.

理論どおりにいかない、やってみないと分らないと話されています。その謙虚なお人柄が好きです。

Phantastic. Being several decades in martial arts, I can see even in his (slow) kata the potential how fast he could be. After such a long life being in MA it comes always to the point you know that there will be some one that might be better, but you don't know as long as you are in the fight. What a wise man.

There's so much to learn from him... absolute wisdom and knowledge...

This is rare. Getting wisdom from a master, that's intended for real encounters, sharing applications you don't see everyday. Highly practical, thoughtfully done, sincerely given, secrets from a master, selfless.

Interesting sensei. He explains every punch and block in a very accessible way. And this dynamic....
