Sensei! Thanks for the informative video! Please explain more the centre of gravity & how to move it, the 3 body axis along with to rotate, when to use each & breathing in & out? What is the general rule here? I love the heal rotation as versus the toes? Which most of us wrongly do! The face turn too! Great tip! Regards Yazz. Brown belt Shotokan

Same as Kiba-dachi but the toes face out at about 45 degrees. Shiko-dachi can be found in Katas from Karate styles that derived from the Naha-te Karate styles in Okinawa, e.g., Goju-Ryu and Uechi-Ryu. Shotokan Karate (Gichin Funakoshi’s Karate style) is an offspring from Shorin-Ryu Karate which in turn is an offspring from the Shuri-Te Karate styles in Okinawa (Sokon Matsumura’s Karate). Shiko-dachi cannot be found in any of the 26 Shotokan Katas, which are Shorin-Ryu (Shuri-Te) Katas with some changes, e.g., Funakoshi replaced Neko ashi-dachi by Kokutsu-dachi and other minor changes but the essence of the techniques remain the same.

When you do "mawatte" gedan barai your hips on shomen position its hard to do hanmi gedan barai for more fast movement
Genio

Great video! You’re a young and talented Sensei. The correct execution and application of the Gedan-barai (and of course other techniques) in real combative situations is what ultimately matters. Your striking/kicking range applications of the Gedan-barai are OK but two of them are rare in real fights (as taught and executed in the Dojo). Perhaps you could make a another video with more applications of the Gedan-barai in the grappling range.
i follow your videos, excellent. what do you think about kudo karate?

Thank you for checking out the video! I don't think so! They are getting their stances too low when they don't have the muscles to support such pressure

A bit different from Classical Okinawan Karate, Since the Ryukyu styles tend to do this at a much closer range and both inside and outside the attack.

I think Shotokan does a wider stand to build up the leg muscle. I heard higher ranks will eventually do a narrow stance.
Sensie one thing... when you go forward with gidan bari .. you say a word "giyeko" plz tell what's that meaning??

Ahh it's jigeiko. ji=ground, keiko=drill, workout, exercise. It basically means a drill for your lower body movement
Hey I'm beginner when ever u do it fast I forgot everything 😢
But my Karate Coach told me that we shouldn’t Stretch our shoulders to far.
I dont think my reaction is that good for Gedan barai .
According to Naka Sensei your Gedan Barai Arm is too high and too far away from your Upper Leg.

I was thought by Kancho Nobuaki Kanazawa that leg and arm (during kihons) must be parallel to each other, just like he does.... However when you block for real you must adjust...... Your comment does not make any sense

If you block with your elbow locked straight, you will lose strength and power as well as having a greater possibility of injuring your elbow and arm.
Terrible posture and execution. Shotokan became just a franchise of mcdojos.

His posture is ok and his execution is also ok, but his power and understanding of power generation is non existent. He is simply going through the motions. The idiots who think this is great, do not understand the difference between good shotokan and weak shotokan ( what we see here is weak , children's shotokan.
What a foolish stance... Kazama Jin.
