by Morio Higaonna 9th Dan.

From part 5 we understand the connection between Goju Ryu Karate and the Chinese Boxing methods from which it developed. In the complex advanced kata we discern elements of White Crane and Tiger Fist forms; in Tensho we detect the characeristic movements of Rokkishu; in Kakie we cannot fail to recognise the push hands known to Chinese martial artists. Includes the kata Sesan, Suparinpei (standard and advanced versions) and Tensho as well as the applications in kakie form of Gekisai, Seiyunchin, Shisochin, Kururunfa and Sesan

Goju Ryu Technical Series Volume 6

by Morio Higaonna 9th dan

Filmed entirely on location in a beautiful Japanese garden, this is the sixth and final part of the Goju Ryu karate technical series featuring the world's leadin exponent of Goju Ryu karate, Morio Higaonna 9th Dan. It is a fitting conclusion to a post-graduate level instructional course that is regarded as the finest ever made on the subject. Sanseru is a trade mark kata of Goju Ryu, and no-one performs it better. The author also demonstrates in great detail the significance of the movements, how they are used (bunkai) and training exercises that develop the ability to apply these powerful techniques dynamically (kakie). A beautifully produced and immensely useful learning tool that is in a class of its own.

The Encyclopedia of Goju Ryu Part 3
by Morio Higaonna

Morio Higaonna was first taught the kata Seiyunchin by his friend, Tsunetaka Shimabukuro. After he joined the dojo of Chogun Miyagi in April 1955, he learned exclusively from An’ichi Miyagi, a senior student of Chojun Miyagi, the Founder of Goju Ryu karate. Clearly this kata was viewed as important by Miyagi Sensei as it was one of those he chose to demonstrate during his research trip to Fuchow, China, in 1915. He also taught it widely during his year long visit to the Hawaii Islands that began in the Spring of 1934 where, it is believed, he felt that Sanchin, the first kata normally taught in Goju Ryu, was too arduous an introduction to his system for students who had not been prepared by strength training and body conditioning.
A private lesson in Shisochin and Seiyunchi kata with the world's greatest exponent of Goju Ryu that reveals the technical intricacies of the art that will greatly improve your own karate.
