johnnymac Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 isn't naha-te just another name for goju-ryu?I was under the impression that Naha-Te is an art that isn't practiced anymore. However it was the basis for Goju Ryu. So it was probably similar, but not quite the same.Naha is a city in Okinawa. From what I learned when I was stationed at Kadena AFB in Okinawa is that pretty much every city had their own Te (hand art) at one time. However only really the more popular ones are still practiced today. That is why you have systems like Shuri Te and Naha Te.Happy New Year everyone.Johnny Mackie N John McNichols-----------------https://www.katamasters.comhttps://www.saishuryu.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinnekodo Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Naha-Te was the art practiced in and around the city of Naha. Kanryo Higashionna was a master of Naha-Te. Higashionna combined the art of Naha-Te with a form of Chinese boxing, thus forming a type of goju school.Chojun Miyagi was one of Higashionna's most prominent students. He took his master's teachings, reformed it & in the 1920s named it Goju-Ryu after he had studied Chinese Kempo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnymac Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Naha-Te Do you know if it's a valid system? Or if it died out with the birth of Goju. Also do you know the kata's associated with Naha Te?John John McNichols-----------------https://www.katamasters.comhttps://www.saishuryu.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shinnekodo Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Naha-Te Do you know if it's a valid system? Or if it died out with the birth of Goju. Also do you know the kata's associated with Naha Te?JohnNaha-te was certainly a valid system just as was Tomari-te and Shuri-te. These systems formed the basis of what is much of karate today. In the case of Naha-te, it came to be known as Shorei-ryu and became the basis for the present day styles of Goju-ryu and Uechi-ryu.Naha-te kata: sanchin, saifa, shisochin, seisan, seipai, sanseiru, seiunchin, kururunfa, suparenpei, hakutsuru These katas were developed in China and brought to Okinawa by Higashionna, Kanryo in the late 1800s.tensho This kata was developed by Miyagi, Chojun.There are 3 other katas associated with Naha-te: sochin, unshu, niseishi. These katas were developed in China and brought to Okinawa by Bushi Sakiyama (ca 1860). Arakaki, Kamadeunchu also taught these 3 katas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dineshm Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 People can 'claim' to teach the matsumura hakutsuru, like this guy.http://www.amazon.com/Hakutsuru-Secret-White-George-Alexander/dp/B00007MEYTThe question is, how many actually know the Matsumura Family Hakutsuru? I'm guessing 1.(or 2?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A family style isn't usually taught to everyone.George alexander's Hohan Soken, life of a grandmaster allegedly shows part of the hakutsuru kate, but without Master Soken, or Fusei Kise to confirm it's; authenticity, it's probably just a hoax.
