Yes
Ready
Bend your knees. Down
and like Kushanku
Pinan Yondan
It is always intersting to look at
but if you can put it into Wado terms
I am still dropping
(hello)
OK, that was exaggerated, but
take them this way
take them that way
the difference is the right hand
Watch
this time
come in on the top
before you came
underneath
this one
on the top
So go back and try your
spreading
then
try a bit more exaggerated
arms up. Not
the Zoro mask!
ready
Go
Has anybody ever
blocked a Mae Geri (front kick) like this?
You can practice (fighting stance)
your Uke(s)
So
so you are using both left and right
Yes there is that application, but let's think about it logically
Slowly
what is wrong with that?
Can you see where Sensei should be?
come to this side
when I do the next move
I am moving in to the centre of the attack
you don't do that!
So there has to be another explanation
So in reality
for me to use this technique
Sensei should no be here
He must be
where
my centre is. That is where he would be attacking
So I need to use the kata
Ineed to move off centre
Yes. Now
for practice purposes we are going to use Junzuki (lunge punch)
you can use Jun or Gyaku zuki (reverse punch)
It is easier to use your arms than kicking
and hitting them all the time
Yes. So
I want you to practice
just this.
You make sure that you are on their centre line
You move
and you cover
can you practice that
can you understand the logic now?
You know. Really he should be there
but for me to use this as a double block. Which
nobody ever does! I have never seen it
but don't forget this is subjective
it is all down to
our experiences, my experiences over the years
what I have seen and what I have not seen
So I need to come off centre
and now it is logical
because he is attacking to the centre
So get the person at the centre
when they attack
Just move off centre
cover
after all, this is your kata
So surely this move
Yes.
As you are pulling back
You can use it
to
for compression
where you are using this one
to stop them moving away
This move
just happened did it?
this bit
it was like a transition it didn't really mean anything
it was just going from there to here
for you to do a double kick block. Yes.
but now you know
to get out of the way
while you are getting out the way, use this hand
this move and several moves
Yes.
Cover
Through
elbow as well as... the punch
This would have been just here. Now
think about using this.
Think about the things that aren't obvious
Yes
OK
but that was when you were standing here
Yes?
So really the attack should be when,
when I am here
So you haven't got this bash (smashing arm)
Changing your thinking about it?
Then
this
you are on the inside more
If I stop where I am
and do it
I am struggling to get into the centre
you know when you attack you try
try to come round to this side
So now it makes sense to me
to move out the way
now I am in the centre
make sure
that this hand
is helping
Yes
One, go forward
(So it is like a side punch?) Yes
If you are smaller or want to go lower
You are falling
take your time
One
Two. Make sure this one (hand) is working as well
This one is doing it as you are falling
There must be a reason why you are going that way
Yes
The you are into the other one
and
you need to get the way of something else
So utilise it
So when you are doing this one
you don't have to do the second attack
but just try and
finish it off with that
Thinking about it differently now?
Finish
