armanox Posted July 31, 2006 Author Share Posted July 31, 2006 Actually there is only one Shodan in the class. The layout from the clip is as follows:http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c47/armanox/diagram.jpgc = cameraman (sensei, 7th dan)1,3,5 are 4th kyu(Green belts)2 is a 2nd dan5 is a 1st dan6 is a 5th danbut why did you ask about rank (curiousity)?

armanox Posted July 31, 2006 Author Share Posted July 31, 2006 No offense taken - that's why I asked. I'd rather someone be honest when they have a complaint. I would also appreciate if you could provide what you consider to be a better demonstration of the techiniques. But, with that said, two of the three green belts are not what is to be considered the best example of the class. They just happened to be the three underbelts in class that knew the kata, and for the purpose that the clip was made we needed to have the underbelts in it to show there progress.

P.A.L Posted July 31, 2006 Share Posted July 31, 2006 i don't know under what situation they made the video, could be after a long practice day and every body was just tired. to me the guy close to the cammera is pretty good. it's abvious that it's not his best and he is kinda relaxed,you can see it even at the start of the video when they just finish naihanchi sandan, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please.To be brutally honest with you I thought the standard of technique wasnt the best.Sorry if this offendsAnonymousOne, do you have a video of your own ability anywhere for us all to see? I ask because this is not the first time that you have been "brutally honest" about someone's video, and I think it's all very easy sitting back and critiquing from behind the safety of the computer screen. At least these people have had the guts to put something out there. Seriously, I'd love to see a video of your technique etc. so that you can show us what you consider to be good technique/form/movement/transition.

unknownstyle Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 our version of the kata is very different and has alot more to it, it is also alot more straight forward "Live life easy and peacefully, but when it is time to fight become ferocious."

I am sure that for someone with such a high dan ranking and challenging workout regime as he has described on this forum a video display would be quite impressive to see. Please, do indulge us with a clip or two.With respect,Sohan "If I cannot become one of extraordinary accomplishment, I will not walk the earth."
