Jion Shotokan Kata, with background Salsa Music–A Critical Analysis
This kata was developed around 1663 in the Okinawan Islands. It is a mix of Shaolin and Shokei (not “Shorei”) styles–the “quick” and “hard.” It is considered to be one of the most refined, mature katas–it has no contradictory, unclear, or unhealthy movements (ref: “Notes on Training”/Amazon.com). If one can’t make a clean stepping punch (oizuki), this will be a very challenging kata for them. It is recommended for those with problems with knees, legs, or arms. Here, I’m working on this–the required kata for our 3rd degree test. I don’t consider myself to fully know this very difficult kata–I’m at about “50%.” It’s the most difficult kata I’ve ever attempted (with Gankaku and Kanku close seconds). I’ll add updates as I learn this very difficult form, and add any “gems of wisdom” I pick up. Google “kengland4″ for my review of “Karate-do Kyohan”–the “Bible” of karate, as well as other martial arts books, movies, etc. Practice hard!!!

I started inside our dojo, at CSULB, but had to finish outside, as a salsa class arrived. I’m only halfway through the reps needed to learn this kata. http://tinyurl.com/obwec3 has a very good, vintage video of this (youtube), with applications.

Not Stun, Not Knock Down – But Brutally Decimate Them! Please dont take what I just said lightly.

The term self-defense might have quite uncommon in the past but now it has become the requirement of most of us. Since every person is different from other in ones thinking, perception and actions so in the same way different people have different point of views about self-defense. Some of the people have a point of view that self-defense training is not an essential thing to have a proper self-defense. They think that there are lots of ways that can help anyone to do ones self-defense. For example if you feel insecure and you are uncertain of what is going to happen with you while you are in your way to office then why dont you keep self-defense weapons with you to ensure your self-defense. This category of people does not give much importance to the self-defense training because they think that your self-defense is in your own hands and its just your level of confidence that matters in the critical situation and you with the help of your self-defense weapons can be able to tackle your opponent.What Is the Best Combination For Your Self-Defense?

If anything is missing you might feel that you have a weak self-defense and perhaps it will become quite difficult for you to deal with your predator. The self-defense training, the weapons and your level of confidence to apply the taught techniques and weapons vigilantly and efficiently against your predator are necessary to have a foolproof self-defense.Why Self-Defense Training Is Essential?Self-defense training is in fact the most essential ingredient of an appropriate self-defense plan. Actually when you get admission in any institute to get the self-defense training then you are taught lots of skills and techniques to deal with an opponent.
