- Awesome display of Technical and historic knowledge. Traditional yet very practical training approach covering both aspects of Goju: Physical Training (Undo) and Technical fighting and self-defense skills (bunkai e kumite kihon). Highly recommended for the serious Goju Ryu exponent. Osu!

1 comments about Goju Ryu Karate Technical Series 2 - Sanchin (Tsunami) [VHS].
- Summary: I can't imagine how to get better instruction without having the instructor in the room.
This video features Morio Higaonna Sensei (Chief Instructor, International Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate Federation) explaining various aspects of the Sanchin Kata. The introduction discusses its orgins in China, while showing photographs and old footage of other people doing variations of the kata. It then shows Higaonna Sensei doing the kata, first from the front, and then again showing side views. Probably the most valuable part of the video is on Shime (testing). This is shown three different times (different angles, testing from the front and the back, different levels of power). Finally, Higaonna Sensei gives a lecture (translated by the narrator) on the principles of the kata, the philosophy behind its training, and details on effective testing. The lecture includes demonstration of what he is saying on his assistant. This video is full of information. The repetition is not just to fill time, but provides useful different views of what is being shown. I believe it is extremely valuable to any student or instructor of Shanshin.

1 comments about Chuck Merriman's Goju Ryu 3 DVD Box Set.
- There is almost no need to review a work on Gojuryu Karate by an 'author' of the level of authority of Chuck Merriman. Mr. Merriman is one of a handful of senior Western practitioners of this unique system of Okinawan Karate and, as such, can be considered as 'expert' a source as is available in this genre.
Most of the demonstrations on the video are actually by another senior practitioner, Paul Enfield, who has spent many years in the UK and US, as well as extensive periods in Okinawa, polishing his skills. This, combined with Mr. Merriman's expert explanations, gives the practitioner great insight into the fundamentals of Gojuryu.
While the explanations are not exhaustive, this work was never meant to be used as a stand-alone means of instruction, but rather an adjunct to training with an instructor. The 'bonus' in buying this set is the interview of Mr. Merriman, covering his own martial art career, and providing some insight into the Gojuryu system.
I use this DVD set in my school as a text and highly recommend it to my students.

2 comments about 3 Major Schools of Okinawa Karate (DVD Volume 1) ==> Uechi-ryu, Goju-ryu, Shorin-ryu.
- If you truely like classical Karate, if you want a true insight to where it all came from and you want to learn about multiple styles - you just hit the gong. I have both volumes of this in VHS. I will get both in DVD.
There is some very good information and outstanding instruction from some devasting Kyoshi's & Hanshi's. The production quality shames Yamazato & Rising Sun Production Co. and eclipses Tsunami (whom I consider to be of above all the rest). You will not be wasting your money. View and enjoy.
- As someone who has practiced martial arts off and on for over a quarter of a century, I have seen most of the videos that there are to see. I have heard of these videos for years, but only now had the ability to purchase them. For those who are interested in traditional martial arts and especially Okinawan karate, these videos are a gold mine of information. All aspects of karate are covered, including basics (kihon), solo forms (kata), sparring (kumite), and various types of conditioning, some of which need to be seen to be believed. The primary demonstrators are Kiyohide Shinjo and the recently deceased Seiko Toyama of Uechi ryu, Tetsuhiro Hokama and Shigetoshi Senaha of goju ryu, and Yoshimitsu Onaga of shorin ryu, along with several others. There is also a short section dedicated to the karate training used by the Japan Self Defense Forces at the end of Vol. 1. These are not instructional videos, but rather demonstrations of some mid to high level aspects of the arts. The advertising for these videos suggests that the information contained would be most useful for those practitioners second dan black belt and up, and I would agree with that. I highly recommend these videos for anyone interested in real martial arts; my only complaint is that I wish there were more of them.
