I wonder if it is T.Suzuki himself that comments the video.. It sounds like him..
If another person is decided to use a sword or a stab against you, and you have knowledge or capoiera, taekwondo or other similar pedestrian art, this sequence could be usefull to al least intend to use your art to avoid your death.
I found that strange also, especially considering Shindo Yoshin Ryu (from which Wado Ryu got a lot of techniques and principles) seems to be all about controlling the weapon. I don’t know where these techniques come from, actually.
does not take control of the weapon at anytime and a mawashi geri to the ribs while the samuraika holds the sword out of the way so he does not cut himself its
crap
Crap!
Of course the technique is hard to time and execute well, but it seems a bit shortsighted to call it nonsense… After all, karate (meaning “empty hand”, ie unarmed) was developed for the express purpose of being able to defend yourself against an armed opponent!
Having said that, my advice if somebody ever draws a sword on you would still be to run
.
Of course an unarmed man has no chance (or at least minimal) against a man with a sword. Does it even have to be said? I think the purpose of the videos is to demonstrate principles. Why is a sword used? Good question? Maybe it’s a good way to harden the mind to have a sharp sword in the face. Or it’s just for fun. Or to impress people, as you say.
I trained under Suzuki Hanshi many times and graded under him also. But this sword attack / defense is just nonsense and nothing more than to impress a less experienced mindset. If someone comes at you with a sword in real life, then I cant see anyone standing their ground and doing this stuff! Someone will get themselves killed…..
sometimes i wish i was in ancient asia so i could kill someone… i mean what!!!!! thats crazy talk.
Excellent !!
