Karate - L’ecole shorin.ryu
from my translation of Kenji Tokitsu's work.
All errors of
translation are proudly my own fault.
Among Kyan’s teachings:
1 – It is appropriate to teach in the following order:
explain first what is karate, what is the attitude of training,
then
learn the forms and the movement.
Then learn the way of striking with the fist and the elbow,
the
way of kicking, the parries corresponding with the techniques of seizing and
immobilization,
and
finally the kata.
It is well after one has well learned a kata that one should be initiated into combat.
4.
One must keep the [one’s] posture while remaining motionless and to submerge
the “ki” to the bottom of the stomach while taking care that it does not rise
again. However, one must also avoid at any price from freezing [in place].
5.
When one practices a kata, it is necessary to execute it with as much willpower
and with the feelings of the moment where one would face with his enemy.
6.
Speed is necessary in all the gestures and displacements [body shifts -
movements].
