SANCHIN Vol.1 Ushiro Karate (DVD)

"The impulse of the heart-mind alone creates form and technique." Kenji Ushiro's Sanchin Kata develops your breathing, helps you to take in Ki into your body and mind, and creates a "unified-body." This video shows detailed footage of “Kata”-the secret to Bujutsu Karate that generates this energy, Ki, which is far more effective than muscle strength or sport-type timing.

This video consists of two parts: 1) the basic part including the demonstration of Sanchin Kata with detailed explanation about the Kata by Kenji Ushiro and the demonstration of Sanchin’s basic applications; and 2) the application part including free sparring applied from Sanchin Kata. 〈 Index 〉 Kenji Ushiro’s Profile Unchanging Truth, the Origin of Karate Demonstration and Explanation of Sanchin Kata Demonstration and Explanation of Basic Application Validation of Kata and Ki Applied application sparring; From Basic to Free Sparring Conclusion; The purpose of Sanchin Kata English Audio Only 85min.
