This informal video presentation highlights the September 2001 open
seminar on Australia’s Central Coast at Tumi Umbi. This seminar-style
presentation kicks off with a 45-minute commentary on technical
theories, application practices and the historical premise of kata, by
Patrick McCarthy. His popular two-person stretching drills that run for
about ten minutes follow the commentary. The main body of the tape is
dedicated to a series of unique and hands-on application practices,
explanations and demonstrations linked to traditional kata such as
Gojushiho, the Pinan kata, Naihanchi, Bassai and Kusanku. The rest of
this informal video presentation covers a seven-part two-person
flow-drill that links shoving, backhanding, straight punching, hook
punching, downward striking, upper-cut punching and elbowing together
into a single practice. Packed with educational value, this informal
presentation is not a step-by-step “how-to” instructional
video, but rather, made for those who participated in the seminar for
the purpose of reviewing what they had already learned. Shot with a
professional digital camera and easy to follow, this informal
seminar-style video presentation is not made with the same quality, as
is an in-studio
post-produced production. However, its low price also
reflects this element, too. At just $19.95 (USD) for Society
members and $24.95 (USD) for
non-members, it is well valued, and bursting with important learning,
especially for application-based karate learners. Running time is about
an hour and a half. Currency
