Wado Ryu Karate Do [Ura no Kumite] Seichisa to Shogekido wo Teniireru Taijin Keiko Ho

[Machine Translation] Wado-ryu Karate-do is one of the four major karate schools. This school has a long history of deepening and developing its own style by incorporating features of jujutsu and kenjutsu into the Okinawan karate style. In this DVD, Hiroki Otsuka, Soke himself, carefully explains the "24 Urano-Kumite", the first public practice method of this school. Unlike competitive training, this training method has been passed down to a small number of people. The main theme of this training method is to cultivate "precision" and "impact" of the techniques. [We aim to improve the quality of techniques such as "uke (to take away the opponent's center of gravity)" and "tsuki (a thrust that conveys the power of the body even at close range). This method of training pursues the rationality and essence of the techniques and is therefore useful for building the body and movement of the martial arts, regardless of the style or organization.

空手四大流派のひとつである和道流空手道。この流派は沖縄の唐手に柔術・剣術の特長を取り入れて独自に深化し、創始されたという歴史を持ちます。本DVDではその初公開稽古法である「裏の組手二十四本」を大塚博紀宗家自らが丁寧に解説。競技稽古とは異なり少数の者のみで受け継がれてきたこの稽古法は技の「精緻さ」と「衝撃度」の養成を主題として＜圧縮から体を練り/腰の中をゴムのように伸ばす＞体の使い方を、解剖学と明確な指導ポイントと共に稽古。 ＜相手の重心を奪う受け/近距離でも体の力が伝わる突き＞といった技術の質の向上を目指していきます。このようなに技の合理性と本質を追究した稽古法なので流派団体を超え、武術の肉体・動き作りに役立つ内容となっています。
