Wastelander Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 My friend, Michael Nguyen, put together this great video comparing karate techniques and kata movements with MMA techniques, to showcase a side of karate that most people aren't aware of. As someone who regularly points out these connections, and has even used many of these examples to do so, I can really appreciate it! I thought it was a very cool video, and thought that some folks here might like it, as well.

Wado Heretic Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 There are a couple of examples of what I generally call "stretching the logic" when it comes to devising applications, and what can actually be derived from kata. However, it is a well devised video, and does demonstrate in a broad sense the fundamental truth of martial arts. The human body has not radically changed in design since the birth of martial arts; what has worked in the past has a place in the present, and the future. R.
