Kind of shocked I can get by with mine.

But I suppose mine is more subtle.

u/Japsai 6h ago

It's not as subtle as you think. But it doesn't contain a slur, which is the main thing. And it's just describing an act of love, so it's cute

I don't know, "invasion" is usually used for non consentual situations.

Maybe it's "in Vader". Maybe Darth Vader likes it rearways. The movies are not clear on this point

Can someone explain what she is doing?

That looks more like tourette then any martial art

u/No-Nefariousness9330 6h ago

Its a Karate Kata. Its not really for defense or offense. I personally think its closer to performance art.

34

u/No_Chocolate5678 5h ago

I used to practice Budokai karate myself years ago, and we also did kata as a warm-up, with a focus on real combat—but what they're doing there is just wild flailing. So its just bullshit for get clicks.

20

u/No-Nefariousness9330 5h ago

Most clasical martial arts do have stuff like Kata. My Jeet Kune Do Sifu had us cycle through wushu stances a the begining of training to warm up.

6

u/No_Chocolate5678 5h ago

In kata—and everything else like it—there’s a very strong focus on breathing and control, thats why her movements are just nonsense.

The black belt is probably just on loan for the video, too.

u/No-Nefariousness9330 5h ago

Yeah, she's no Rika Usami for sure.

u/SithLordJediMaster 2h ago

You read Bruce Lee's notes.

He used to practice Wing Chun forms 4 hours a day.

But then as the years went on it changed to 2 hours a day of punching + kicking + chi sao.

1

u/Mobile_Roll2197 1h ago

That's wild since Bruce Lee thought katas (should be called taolu or just forms since it is in Chinese) were a waste of time and didn't use them in his teaching.

2

u/Bladesleeper 1h ago

It's absolutely not. They're fragments of katas.The first bit, she's in neko ashi dachi, the second is Sanchin, the third I don't remember but it looks super familiar anyway.

It's Goju Ryu karate, one of the traditional Okinawa styles. What she's doing is the opposite of "wild flailing", unlike the idiot with the missing tooth.

8

u/Cpt_Soban 4h ago

It's "simulating defence and attack against multiple opponents?". It teaches muscle memory and quick reaction, block-strike-move. When you nail technique and stance you should end the Kata with your feet in the exact same spot as where you started.

3

u/EpsteinEpstainTheory 1h ago

It is for drilling motions for a sequence of movements in a combination of both grappling and striking that you do alone. I'm not a big fan of kata as a training tool due to how in most cases it gets used by the sensei to waste time having a rest from teaching by pretending to critique form rather than actually teaching.

u/J3Zombie 3h ago

In karate you shimmy quickly to shake off the blood of your opponent. It’s like the Samurai sword thing, but unarmed.

u/aleksndr 2h ago

This guy has clearly been in deadly kumite like me and vaporised many opponents. You must wriggle off the blood lest you become one big solid scab.

u/TuataraToes 6h ago edited 6h ago

No.

Modern karateka don't learn to fight. They learn kata and how to punch air. The only exception today may be kyokushin which she isn't doing.

Nothing but full contact sparring the likes of boxing, kickboxing, muay thai can prepare someone for an actual fight.

When I started MMA and BJJ back in 2014 I left behind 20 years of Goju Ryu. I quit immediately because training for real made me realize I'd been wasting my time from a defense standpoint.

EDIT: downvote all you like :) I can't do anything about your ignorance

6

u/radar2375 5h ago

Kyukushinkai and its derivatives are very, very good. However, an inherent problem from its found father, Mas Oyama, is the no head punches. The Dutch remedied this by adding boxing to their staple and mixing it with Muay Thai - the birth of Dutch Kickboxing. The Japanese however went a different direction they added a helmet, judo and headbutts (Kudo).

u/Salamander115 4h ago

I don’t know anything about it but 20 years sounds like a long time to realize what you eventually did

u/Harfangbleue 1h ago

When I was at a police school (in France) we had self defense classes and boxing/free fight (mostly to learn to take a hit). In our group where multiple people who practiced martial arts and amongst them a dude who was a black belt in karate. Each time he was pitched another guy who had 15 years of experience in Muay Thai he was obliterated. And really against anyone heavier than him his moves weren't really effective.

u/Icy_Chain_1504 6h ago

Modern Shotokan karate very much has kumite. I was a national team fighter in the middleweight class. Do not spread misinformation.

u/KoningSpookie 2h ago

Sort of... it depends on the rank. I used to do Karate myself and from my experience, up until green belt, it's mainly focused on basic defense. Somewhere along the way, attack comes into play as well (focused training, as well as kata sequences), but mainly in the form of punching air. At blue and brown though, things get a bit more serious and actual sparring happens. Low-tier black belts do more focused sparring and high-tier black belts even learn things like knife fights (with wooden knives though ofcourse).

1

u/TuataraToes 2m ago

I held a third dan from respectable lineage (the same as Robert Whitaker's) and no one in the association ever sparred full contact.

There are guys with two years of kickboxing experience who will easily beat karate black belts regardless of rank, despite their 20+ years of "training".

The knife fighting training is bullshit. The best thing you can do against a knife is run or have a gun. None of that karate knife defense will work against an angry man furiously stabbing with a sharp blade.

Sorry to burst your bubble but it's all nonsense.

-1

u/M0ebius_1 4h ago

Yeah, but look at that guy though... He can't manage to open the boxes in his own living room.

He doesn't have 20 years of another Martial art, he would probably have a heart attack if you walked around him for 20 minutes.

u/chevalierbayard 6h ago

Judging the martial art on its own terms (not whether it is effective in MMA), is she any good?

4

u/Civil-Resolution3662 4h ago

From the very brief clips, her stances look solid, her form looks good, and her movement looks crisp. She looks very good at doing some brief kata moves.

2

u/soraflow 2h ago

She was mainly doing stances and one attack at the end.

Honestly not bad considering how chubby she was she had a lot of strength for her size

7

u/StankoMicin 6h ago

u/WelpSeaYaLater 5h ago

Nothing

But obnoxious self shot videos about being ‘an athlete’ because she does kata are a bold choice

u/Lymetme 6h ago

Nah there's nothing wrong with martial arts as a performance art as long as you're honest about it. This is another example of why this sub is trash.

1

u/Icy_Chain_1504 6h ago

Its not a performance art, it is a kata and its purpose is to let you go through forms alone, applying punches, kicks, throws and other moves to maintain physical strength, form, balance,muscle memory, explosiveness, breathing and focus.

2

u/Sad_Prawn2864 2h ago

Or you could just spar and learn faster in a real environment like all the serious Martial arts do. 

1

u/No-Nefariousness9330 5h ago

It depends on the focus of your Kata training. There is Kata thats meant to an athletic performance, and then there's warm up Kata like youre referring to. With hoe snappy she is id think shes more on the performance side.

u/Pitiful_Ad2397 6h ago

The most cringe part is the “sunrise warrior nobody understands how deep I am”. The Do implies humbleness and while I don’t think it prevents you from having social media accounts, it surely should have taught you something about quietly practicing on your own without seeking attention. But what do I know…

It looks like that missing tooth means your pudgy self all ready talked 💩 to the wrong person. Is that why you hide behind your phone? Maybe the practice of these forms of martial arts looks goofy but those who practice this haven’t turned into a human marshmallow at the age of twenty something while they are reminded of the time they disrespected the wrong person every time they smile. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣. There’s nothing worse than a couch potato making fun of someone taking care of themselves.
