1979, 1st year learning Shotokan from an old school Sensei. This reminds me of his class.

I remember Training in Isshin Ryu Karate in1970, so much mental discipline is needed! Eventually earning third-degree black belt, I train 50 years in martial arts miss it every day

Seeing these old films is a reminder to me of the time & effort put into making karate succeed all around the world. Even today we are benefitting from their hard work and planning.

Awesome video, Shotokan Karate-do
All the techniques you see here along with many others are being used in today's MMA and UFC arenas's. Thank all you Sensei's whom maintain a rigorous traditional art form. "The stronger the Root, the better the Fruit/Tree".

Perhaps someday, like disco, MMA and it’s noxious influences will fade away, and we can return to the old ways.

I have Nakayamas dynamic Karate .bought it in 73 .
Still have my makiwara post in the floor of my garage.

The difference between old school Karate and today's Karate lies especially in its application :

[lastninjaitachi]

This is basically dbz training compared to what you get here

7:20- "karete expert by far the more formidable opponent." I wonder if they tested this back then. Is there a video? It seems like common wisdom is boxing is fine against one of the traditional karate styles, so I wonder if this changed ad some point as one art developed more then the other, or if it was just favoritism from the narrator. I'd love to see a REALLY old school karate vs boxer match, from back before Karate was commercialized.

[ahmaenya]

My Sensei said "karate has so much type of hands and foots techniques" karate can fight like a boxing, like muay thai, but boxing and muay thai can't fight like a karate.
