Okinawa's Superman: KIYOHIDE SHINJO sensei walks us through the essence of UECHI-RYU Karate
Спорт
We had the honor of asking sensei Kiyohide Shinjo, nicknamed “Okinawa’s Superman” due to his remarkable achievements and now a 10th-degree blackbelt, the essence of Uechi-Ryu karate as well as his aspirations for future generations. Take a look.

Dedication to popularizing a true martial art into a cultural iconic nonsense? Lol
Shinjo sensei is truly renowned! He is a 9 time prefectural champion in kata and kumite and now the chairman of Uechi-Ryu kenyukai, an organization with over a hundred dojos worldwide. Truly a legend of a sort!

And a decent College wrestler would take him down and own him. Not that I don't respect what he does, I do. But you must be well rounded

Shinjo has made himself a joke and Uechi-ryu one as well. His emphasis on breaking boards is useles, embarrassing and archaic.

A legend that when he wasn't recognized as the systems leader after the death of Master Uechi took his ball and went home and started a system under a different name. At least until he realized no one cared!!! 😂😂😂

Shinjo Sensei! One of the legends... In spite of being so so capable, he never ever made an attempt to prove his strength. He is my inspiration. And he is so close to my heart. Great respect for you Sensei. Ossu! Peace and harmony, Sensei Maharaj 😊

That explains why he thinks breaking boards is important! Hahahaha
i like nujabes
I trained for many years in shito-ryu karate and was teaching for about 12 years. Having trained with a number of Japanese sensei there is a significant gap on my list and that is Kiyohide sensei!
学ぶ武術は異なれど、沖縄空手、上地流、新庄先生の御高名は自分の元にも届いており、常に尊敬の対象だ。

Please more videos training karate like this. and can you put subtitles in all languages
This is a very under rated channel. Brilliant content. Please visit a Goju-ryu school soon. As a practitioner I would love to see your perspective and experience of Goju-ryu.

They do kihon one way, but they loose their style as soon as they do sparring.

Come on Shinjo, smile for the camera, which is all you care about anymore. 😂
Shinjo has lost sight of Uechi-ryu. He's more concerned with Okinawa's cultural importance as a vacation spot. So sad. So sad.
