Okinawan Goju-Ryu Karate, Volume 1 - DVD
Chojun Miyagi, a disciple of Grandmaster Higashionna from Naha Village in Okinawa, developed Okinawan goju-ryu karate in the early 1900's using the skills he learned from Higashionna and those refined as a police captain and training officer for the Okinawan Policy Academy. After Miyagi died in 1953, his legacy of goju-ryu karate at the honbu headquarters was passed to his senior student Eiichi Miyazato - who, with other senior students, continues to teach and spread this art around the world. In this series, Teruo Chinen teaches the 12 kata of goju-ryu, plus special exercises and techniques seldom seen outside of Okinawa.
Volume 1 features goju-ryu warm-ups, sanchin kata, nigiri gami, gekki-sai dai ichi kata, gekki-sai dai nai kata and sandan-gi.
By Teruo Chinen. Color. Approx. 60 min.
