À propos de cet audio

Was the creation of Karate-do a necessary evolution or a politically motivated rebranding? 🤔 This week on Great Karate Myths, we unravel the historical truth behind the dichotomy of Jutsu (technique/skill) and Do (way/path).We look at Gichin Funakoshi's ambition to transform Okinawan karate into a Japanese budo , following the lead of Kano Jigoro's Judo. Learn how the end of the samurai and the Meiji Restoration fundamentally redefined martial arts, shifting them away from combative skill and toward personal development and nation-building.🚨 Myth Alert! We argue that the idea of a historical "golden age" of deadly Karate-jutsu is a modern invention, largely created to sell the art to the West. We also contrast the physical culture focus of Miyagi Chojun's Goju-ryu with the samurai-influenced "one blow" ethic of Shotokan.Don't miss the final point on why the antique kata are more closely related to Kung Fu and weapons applications than to modern ideas of unarmed combat! 🤯Key Highlights:

Funakoshi's political reasons for changing 'China Hand' to 'Empty Hand'
Why jutsu and do don't historically apply to the antique kata
The late-eighties pressure point fighting craze
Funakoshi borrowing from Japanese arts like Jigen-ryu and Jiu-jitsu
