Bring back full contact. Many of the Karatekas are so incompetent when fighting with other styles because of this point sparring system. Point sparring should be done as a secondary for Dojo's but full contact should be in competitions

[lke]

I always wondered why the sparring system is basically just dancing and jumping around like maniacs instead of using the techniques practiced in class, it would give a chance to put to the test whatever is being learned at the dojo.

1:24 Note to self: do not slide into other guy's punch.

[asawe]

Me and my 2 best friends grew up doing Shito Ryu, it really is a 3 man sport. :)

[Lele-om]

Happy to see that sportive karatekas get Amazing results in karate combat and full contact fights in general 💪🏼

[tristancreed]

This is a highly defensive style. The basics and katas revolve around blocks and counters. It's surprising to see how aggressive the sparring matches are.

[Allnew_K]

Intercepting an attacking opponent to counter them is so beautiful imo

[rogerwood]

3:55 is this the jumping help technique?

[erlinbytyqi]

can anyone tell me what the difference is between shotokan karate and shito ryu karate

[BelloBudo]

1.04 scores ippon for that kick? I worry about the direction of karate and the crazy influence the Olympics will have on it.

[WildBoreWoodWind]

What happened to my Ryu - gloves, foot protection and all that jumping is reminiscent TKD, standards have certainly dropped in the last 40 years. Sadly, I watched this vid and the quality of technique is missing - technique, precision and quality of teaching should improve with each succeeding generation, something has gone badly wrong here - I'm so grateful to my sensei/shihan for both literally and figuratively pounding good, sound and basic technique into us, both as children and as adults. I'm quite sad seeing this.

[elindigeno]

Where are their helmets and chest protector?

[stevenseagull]

Came here for the thumbnail, I thought they fight full-contact. Didn't the third guy.

[sonic-bb]

why does this look so much like taekwondo? even the forms

[mragren]

Oh my 02.35 - 02.55 was just painful to watch, (Lets pretend we are fighting)

[chaddonschaddons]

I don't think it needs to be said but in a real street fight, Shito Ryu's quality is in the name.

Karate hat nichts mit der Realität zu tun…#kickboxing #muaythai #mma
