1. This video is an excellent source to the Wado kata system, allthough spoke in Japanese, it is still a good training tool for the beginner on up. The instructor in the video shows each kata at different angles and speeds plus you have the power of rewind and pause. I was in the Wado Ryu karate Do system when i was a teenager,now several years latter I'm getting back in to it again. This video has helped me do that. I rate this video as an excellent tool for the Wado system. But dont take this wrong it will never take the the place of a dedicated istructor.

1. This second volume of "Wado Ryu Karate" by TSUNAMI Productions continues in the tradition of the first... an interesting high level overview of Wado style karate by Yoshiaki Ajari with old (1965-ish) film footage of Hironori Otsuka, the founder of Wado-ryu karate. There are demonstrations of kata Chinto, Niseishi, Rohai, Wanshu and Jitte. There are also discussions of the Wado versions of the concepts of Inasu, Noru and Nagasu with bunkai-oyo. It was an interesting comparison tape -- after I turned down the audio and ignored the funky narration.



2. this video is one of the must have for the wado practitioner. you will see H. Ohtsuka perfoming a variety of advanced kata. There is a nice japanese melody on the backgrond. You won't hear any sound performed by ohtsuka, so kiai will not be noticeable. the rest of the video is quite interesting for mudansha people (he who doesn't hava a dan-degree). when you have reached a dan-degree and become yudansha, the rest of this video is not very much extra knowlegde. Be careful not to study only from video, form might have been changed and training much without an instructor will only serve a negative purpose. please consider ANY video as back-up material and not as a study guide. I have given the 4 stars because this footage of ohtsuka is very rare and it is always interesting to see the great master perform. I also give these 4 stars to the very good quality of the video.

1. Unfortunately this DVD is just a rip off.
   The video was recorded from VHS tape & poorly formatted.
   There are no chapters or any other features that you would expect from a DVD.
   I was hoping to supplement my Wado Ryu training with the aid of the examples on this DVD, but there is absolutely nothing to gain from this piece of junk!
   For a great series on Wado Ryu that shows the katas in detail, I highly recommend David Deaton's "Wado Ryu Karate" series produced by Panther Productions.



2. Just watched it for the first time and WOW! What can I say, except, I really
   learned a lot from this DVD. It showed me how to perform every kata exactly
   how it should be done.



3. I don't know where these people found this footage but it was awesome! To see the master at work was a real treat. And the information was beyond belief. Excellent!



4. If you want to see really high quality footage of the Founder of Wado Ryu Karate performins kata that was filmed by Berkley University (California) in 1965 see Wado Ryu The Way of Peace and Harmony Volumes 1 & 2. Unlike the above, they are professionally produced films from a Southern Californian studio, that you will be proud to own.



5. You can really learn alot from this great video!! I highly recommend this dvd!!!
