Traditional Japanese Jujitsu has a whole bunch of grappling kata. Some of it even on the ground. (no, it’s no substitute for BJJ.) But the whole “OMG I’ve inlocked the code for t3h gr4pp3l” is funny when it comes from a predominantly striking art, espeically one that has goofy stances.
The problem with this thread is that no one here really belives that you can get grappling techniques from kata. We need to lure someone frmo MAP or something of that ilk who thinks they can, so we can brutally acttack and make fun of them.
Hi Your dreams are answered. Here is a trad karate guy who will attempt to answer nearly all your questions.
So why do some of you clowns think there is no grappling technique in kata?
And how do you think the old guys remembered the moves that you now practice?
Are you the guys who roll around with each other in little itsy bitsy shorts where I would rather do that with a woman?
Or are you a biiiiig brutaaaalll maaan who wants to ridicule an itsy bitsy karate guy like me?
Aint you guys all sort of roll around in little shorts types?
Well ok maybe you aint all like that.
You would like to know what manji uke is in jion?
It can be in armed grappling as in the days of short swords where the
guys both had weopons in one hand.
It can also be a throw found in chin na
The original version of jion by the way didnt have any such thing.
Funokoshi devised the shotokan version of jion.
Problem with shotokan/ some shuri kata is it stops at a specific part of a technique and everybody wants to know that application.
wrong it is part of the movement.
There are also other thoughts on that movement. I could go in them at a later date when I have sussed out who these nurds on here are who slag off trad kata.
My other art by the way is vale tudo, the bare knuckle variety.
Well I see some things of value here, but I read a whole heap of crap as well.
The only forum on the Internet that will beat your ass for running your mouth.
Bit like your motto above wouldnt you say? what a pile of crap!!!
Keyboard warriors speak de crap, ohhh baby you is to goood for meeeee!!!
Any of you guys need a decent converstation about martial arts other than some of these wanna be a martial artist but dont know anything other than slag off the guys who know what they are doing with stuuupid photos and talk de sheeet man
Then switch over to other forums where the real guys hang out
Might call back here when I see some guys who know what they are doing,
Cant get techniques from kata???
Ohhh numb boy… some guy came up with some techique, and guess what >>???
They put it in to a kata , but so numb nuts like some of you guys cant get their hands on it they made it difficult to pull out of the kata…
