Karate | Okinawan Goju-ryu | Ten-Chi | Training session

A clip of a karate training session learning my students a new kata "Ten-Chi".

Dai Sensei Meitoku Yagi (1912-2003) created Ten-Chi kata after the Taoist concept of Tai Chi. It is a mirror kata during which, in the bunkai, two persons complete a continious bunkai cycle very simular to Chinese two-man forms. The direct meaning of Ten-Chi is "heaven" and "earth".

Filmed in 1997 in Nijmegen, Netherlands.
