sparring comes hand in hand with basics and kata get these right and your sparring will be far easier and more understanding

as oftewn as possible

dont ask me why its just somthing thats in there when i started at an early age it was the idea of looking after yourself earning a little respect now nearly 30yrs later its the deepness and technical side i love i could train another 30yrs and still not get 5% to feel just right its a truly great challenge

im not really one for cheap gi's i like the quality but i am quite picky the last 4 have been tokaido but i feel like a change but must be at least the same quality

what do you recomend as an alternative or should i say improvement

what is the name of the other line of tokaido Gi please and i'll look thanx

ive worn tokaido now for around 6yrs and really like them but i am due another and wonder if anyone can suggest as good a gi in an alternative

equaninimus thanks for the insight i live and learn somthing every time i join a forum it makes even me seem knowledgable when chatting in our Dojo ____Cheers

i was trying to explain my explanatoin wasnt as good as aefibird but i meant the same thing anyway well done

Hi, welcome to the forum.

hiya and wewlcome

a really really old place in midlands uk

could'nt make any sense either lol

try rubbing it together between your hands about 3 inches then move along it aches your hands but should loosen up a little

try to take things on board right or wrong it will all add to your experience but remember there's idiots everywhere!!!

thanx

doesnt sound like wado chinto can someone show me a link

i've trained with a few japanese sensei and i was scared to death

i dont really agree with associating Karate with sport its ruining the MARTIAL art

well some people were just born good just let her think so

equaninimus is there anything out there simular site for wado-ryu?? this site is amazing didnt know footage that old existed

very nice site cheers!!!

yes we bow on and off mat and also in oand out of dojo

both uchi uke and soto uke blocks are done using hip movement in wado being more of a deflection than block
