Скачать или смотреть Kata Rokkishu / Tensho - 1985 Archive

in late 1985, shortly after returning from an intensive training visit to the Goju Kensha Hombu dojo in Tokyo, I had both use of a video camera (very rare at the time) and, for around one and a half hours on a sunny Sunday afternoon, someone to operate it for me.

I decided to archive all the forms I had reviewed during the training trip whilst they were somewhat fresh in my mind and thus this is presented as one of the 20 Karate, Tai Chi & Ba Gua forms recorded that day without rehearsal or repetition.

The performance is far from perfect but nonetheless is indicative of how we were performing these forms during what I personally call the Goju Kensha “middle period” where some changes had occurred but more were to come – George Ciechanowicz
