tdiedwards Posted June 22, 2006 Author Posted June 22, 2006 Thanks very much!It's a bit too far from me, but interesting to read about that style. I'm pretty sure that's the kinf of karate i should be doing - for the training, if not actual competition.Cheers!Tim
Killer Miller Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 I trained years ago with some of Mas Oyama's groups and wasn't that impressed. Not saying that the're not some good ones out there, but looking at the groups overall, and comparing with JKA overall, I would have still gone with JKA. A little slow, tail bones sticking out on technique, focus weak, etc... I even had them gang up on me one night when an assistant instructor was teaching the class...and they were sorry they did so. A few techniques they wern't expecting to see.I'm sure the organization is a great one as a whole. But when I see comparisons as them being the best, I personally haven't seen that demonstrated as being the best and most brutal.- Killer - Mizu No KokoroShodan - Nishiyama SenseiTable Tennis: http://www.jmblades.com/Auto Weblog: http://appliedauto.mypunbb.com/Auto Forum: http://appauto.wordpress.com/

Samuel Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 A good Kata to do for Wado is Rohai, not alot of people do it so the judges tend to be impressed when they see it, (This is if everyone doesnt get the same idea and do it as well )
cathal Posted June 22, 2006 Posted June 22, 2006 (This is if everyone doesnt get the same idea and do it as well )That is not my experience...I find people tend to go with what's popular, and those who do something unexpected get that extra attention from the judges, and turn out with better scores. .The best victory is when the opponent surrendersof its own accord before there are any actualhostilities...It is best to win without fighting.- Sun-tzu
