Okinawan Karate is a martial art system that uses punches, kicks, blocks and strike to subdue an opponent. Karate can be effective for street fighting, competitions, or self-improvement. In these videos, I will show you effective karate applications for these situations.
Whether you train in Shotokan, Shorin-ryu, Euchi-ryu, Goju-ryu, Shito-Ryu, Wado-Ryu, etc...they all shared the same concept of using the body and the mind.
Videos are posted every weekend!

They are really working these moves of yours, I'm applying them bit by bit
I wish you the best with learning these moves.
Your are awesome sir I love but in the present not but one day I will learn definitely
Thank you for watching. I hope you the best!
Great explaination. I got exact same conclusion and its what i'm teaching my students. Kihon blocks looks like proper techniques but in reality it's intercepting the punch and deflecting to lateral. Blocking hands drawing a vertical circle in diagonal direction. The lateral movement comes from inward turning the hand in an vortex shape execution.
Glad that we have the same understanding. Thank you for your support.
Ur amazing sir I wanna learn from u lov from India Kashmir
Thank you! I will make more tutorial videos.
Well it looks nice but in reality...just look on UFC you cannot see any blocks ..hardly...and this is cancer problem of all martial arts . They do not explain how to really block...Student has to develop muscle memory of block and then use it in sparing otherwise this is deadly trap that cost many people on the street. So Len try to use it in sparing with variety of people , preferable not yours students...and than make video..or even better go to one of the MMA schools and try to have sparing there...otherwise all this knowledge is dead. World Martial art definitely need reset and that will happen in next 20 ,30 years and the rest will be folklore. I have been in martial arts for 40 years and have last 15 my club..and I throw my students into fire of sparing and all knowledge just disappear. We shouldn't ignore speed, anxiety, fear, stamina when to engage into fight , how to avoid it, when to run and how . This has to be thought in school. I witness slaughtering teachers in front of their students because of their ignorance. I wrote to you this because I thing you are able to be good teacher...you have accuracy, speed, mental balance ,spirit so my man....farewell.
I agree with you 100%. There is a difference between practicing versus real street fighting. The reality of street fighting is get to your opponent quick and finish the fight. However, as a martial artist, we need to learn to condition our bodies with moves and reflexes. We need to learn to be both martial artist and fighters. There is a difference between training in these two areas. I would love to do a video and explain my point. Writing is too long. Thank you for your input 🙏
This situation is typical for nerve compression and it is good that you had surgery. But the numbness will most likely remain partially, although you will adapt to it and it will not bother you. Don't get stuck on this, diversify your training for the rats, hand, forearm, shoulder. And I think it will be useful to consult a physical therapist who has experience with athletes
Thanks and I have been building the muscles for the hand.
Thank you so much
Thank you for your support
Thanks for this kind of good video really It's a nice video with good technique. Could you please make a playlist for beginners, including how to start, how to diet chart, and which exercises should be done to increase the strength of the body to fight?
Yes, I can create a program for that.
Thanks, useful lesson.
Thank you for your support
If one has time to block, it's already too late, unless one is fighting a really drunk guy
It all depends on distance.
Hachi means horse stance not fighting stance they’re different.
You are correct. Hachi means horse stance, but why can’t it be a fighting stance? Anything can be a fighting stance. Thank you for watching 🙏
Very good explanation; thank you very much.
Thank you for your support!
He’s not doing 8 blocks, he’s just doing them in 8 directions. He keeps changing the blocks, they’re just in the same direction. Pretty basic.
Thank you for watching and your observation.
Thanks.
Oss. Shensei. Thank you
You are welcome! Thank you for supporting!
Hello Sensei, do you use the rising knee as a leverage to ensure a stable stand or more to cover your body? I have seen bunkai from Soke Takayoshi that he used the hiza- geri just to protect his lower body. Just curios:)
I love this question. I will do a video on this. It is too lengthy to write. Keep these questions coming 🙏👍
А на встречу кин гери или мае гери по бубенцам или в голень или в колено с уходом с линии атаки. А уйти в сторону и кинуть навстречу маваси чудан или йёко гери в бедро или тонкую или портняжную мышцу или в клоно при большем опыте йёко гери по плавающим рёбрам. И не нужно будет стараться и корячится с блоком аге уке. Уход удар если уж так хочется нагаши уке. А удар в голень или колено или пах рюприрывает атаки агрессивных на раз.
Nice sir
❤
THIS IS A TIP FOR ALL THAT IS WATCHING THIS VIDEO, THESE 8 MOVES CAN ONLY WORK FOR THOSE WHO DEDICATE THEMSELVES TO HARDCORE PRACTICE.
Thank you for your support!
Excellent 👍
Thank you for your support
I think there was a line in "The Karate Kid" film ,the theme was , "what's the best defence"? And the answer was along the lines of "don't be there" . Thats what is being taught here, age uke means you're still in front of them, soto ude uke ,or uchi ude uke means you're not there, you've shifted out the line of the attack. "Don't be there".......
Another great breakdown. Thank you. Really gives me something to visualise while I'm doing the kata. Keep them coming
Glad that it helps
Great Training Sensei Tran! Thank you for showing the Bunkai and Practical Application of Wankan. I will be using the techniques in my daily kihon. I look forward to your next video. Thank you for taking the time to produce these videos.
It is my pleasure. Thank you for your support! I am planning to put together an online seminar on KZread livestream. I hope you can support and log in.
Of course, Sensei. I will be on the lookout for the online seminar and register for it. You can count on me. Domo Arigato.
Great 👍 thanks
Thank you for your support
Awesome
Thank you for your support
great opening 🤣🤣...something like: Bro, good morning 🤣 I am just kidding, Len.
I’ll try that next time :-)
Thanks for vedlo seamus
Thank you for your support
I can't help but notice that the blocks and follow-up attacks are mirroring Wing Chun moves, and I'd agree that these are practical since personally that is how I instinctively block, or rather redirect, and counter attacks. The most noticeable similarities for me are your moves in 4:33 . Martial arts indeed is a beauty, and this video showcases the connection of all the arts and its effectivity. Salute and respect to you, Sir.
That is right! At the end of the day, we are similar! Thank you for your support! 🙏
Very good bro special point
Thank you for your support
Be great if you could show the applications of these moves 👌 thanks
That would be out this weekend
@@continuousfist the favorite kata of O Sensei Nagamine. I have heard that he recreated Wankan together with elder bushi from Tomari because it was declared "lost". Thank you, Sensei Len, for your effort and knowledge. Would be great to receive an online seminar in near future.
@@salvatoreplacidoplumari3840 planning to have a seminar online in June
@@continuousfist GREAT:) Onegaishimasu
Nice explanation sensai I am a member also of peacock Shorin Ryu here at Palawan Philippines
Thank you for your support!
excelente defesa pessoal
Thank you!
Does he know the swords are upside down on the rack 0:51
Yup. I do.
If a person is taller than you 5 inches how will these techniques work
It all depends on how you understand your box of contact. It doesn’t matter how tall or short your opponent is. What is important is where your opponent will hit you. Remember, you are the target so you should know where your opponent will attack.
Have a good day sensei, oss 🥋
Thank you very much for your support! 🙏
Thanks for excellent explanation Len!

Let me know what is your favorite kata!
Good Morning Sensei. My favorite kata is Naihanchi Shodan.
@@polmidas mine as well!
Heian Shodan is my favorite kata, can you make a video for this, i mean tutorial
@@KarateandJudo4I can make a tutorial for pi an/heian shodan. Also, I have a video of pinan shodan kata application on my channel.
tradisional mengajjarkan rute dan keindahan gerakan dan itu natural dan sesuai dengan mekanikal tubuh kita, sementara untuk penggunaanya adalah pengembangan dan kecerdasan individu untuk mengaplikasikanya dalam pertarungan yg sesungguhnya. dalam karate lama..setiap bagian tubuh adalah senjata..bagaimana melatihnya sehingga fungsi tubuh berubah menjadi senjata ..dan hal inilah yg kemudian bergeser menjadi karte sperti yg kita saksikan saat ini...menjadi kompetisi mengatas namakan karate dan itu hanya bgian terkecil dari karate sesungguhnya.karena tangkisan dlm tradisional karate bisa menghancurkan tulang belulang manusia yg mencoba menyalkitinya..Oss
Зачем ставить блок, если он и так пол метра не достаёт до ебала?👎
Thank you for this video! Hope u get well soon!
Thank you for your support! 🙏
This 8 Bocks really good technique.
Thank you for watching!
Ok bagiqu
Hip replacement surgery later this year for me. Right now I’ve had to adjust my forms without the kicks because I can’t raise my knee. But like Ramsey Dewey says in every video, I “get out there and train”. I was working on Choy Li Fut hand drills this morning, and trying not to get distracted by my hip making popping noises. 😂😂😂
I hope your surgery will be successful! I had an ACL surgery with 3 screws in my knee as well. I am happy to hear that you are staying active!
Yourvvedlos are helping alot of people
Oh, his videos help me a lot! Especially the kata applications. 👍💪👊🥋
Thank you very much! I love to share my findings to karate enthusiasts! 🙏
Thank you and will be posting more soon! Thank you for your support!
Hope you get well soon seamus
Thank you! Recovery is going well!
Growing up I would see large group of people gathering at my local park doing all these moves in slow motion. Usually older people. The entire time I thought it was some sort of meditation yoga style exercise. Now thay I think about it they were actually practicing these moves.
