What is Karate? What are Kata and Kumite?

Karate is the expression style (symbol) of techniques in karate. Kata refers to the forms of techniques in karate. Kumite is a practice method that most closely approximates real combat by combining the meanings (essence) of each movement within the kata with an opponent. Traditional karate was originally a solo performance of gymnastic-like kata, but the completion of kumite established a style as a form of sparring.

What is the true meaning of the karate kata devised by the experienced predecessors within empirical rationality? Hiroshi Kinjo, a solitary karateka who has devoted his life to the practical application and study of traditional karate across different styles, reveals his achievements to all karate practitioners. This DVD compiles the works previously released on three VHS volumes into a single disc.

Dento Karate

The late Kinjo Sensei taught a Shorin Ryu variety that he learned from; C. Hanashiro, S. Gusukuma, K. Toyama among others in pre war Okinawa. The DVD covers kihon, the Dentokan Kata with paired applications. The Kata; Pinan I-V, Naihanchi I-III, Passai (Oyadomari, Dai (Itosu) and Sho (Guwa)) Kosokun Sho and Dai, Chinto, and Gojushijo are presented various angles. I found the Gojushiho version very interesting. This DVD is well worth the expense as all technical details are visible and some explained.

It's a pleasure to watch Itosu style Karate being preserved and shared by Kinjo's students. The DVD should be watched by everyone in Itosu's lineage.
