I was going to suggest a willy measuring contest - but I'd almost certainly lose that too! ;)

Re: Competition Kata
In this case I don't think it's homogenisation. Perhaps the opposite actually as; in the Shiai-jo, it’s all about standing out, isn't it..? Saw some footage of the same youngster doing Chinto that was equally "jazzed up" - I particularly noticed at one point how slowly the fingers were wou...

Re: Pink Floyd Wado
I know Dave.
Thinking about it, if there was any musician you'd have wanted to be Wado-ka it would be him.

Pink Floyd Wado
Hello, As its quiet here, I thought I'd post this pic of David Gilmour wearing a jacket with a Wado badge on it :) A very eagle eyed Wado friend of mine spotted it whist watching the recent BBC documentary about Pink Floyd. She managed to get this screen shot of it from the BBC I player. It was only...

Rob Zwartjes - Tanto-dori
I've not trained with this fella but my Wado Instructor rated him highly.
I think this demo is far better than many I have seen recently...

Re: Interesting demo from John Wicks sensei
For this reason, many systems practice ukemi whilst wearing their weapons / saya.wadoka wrote:My only guess would be that for that kind of demo where he would be thrown to the floor then having the saya tucked in would get in the way. Would be great to land onto it.
Easier said than done though.

Re: revisiting karate ni sente nashi
Ko-Bo-Ittai ? I think Reg had an essay on Kihon Kumite on Wado World, but for some reason I can’t find the site now so maybe it has been taken down. There was also an essay on Uke and Tori (again by Reg I think) which went a long way to explain the relationship between the two in kata. As Bob Says, ...

Re: Interesting demo from John Wicks sensei
I see no harm in looking and comparing / contrasting.
It popped up on a FB group I am a member of and I haven't seen many displays of Muto-Dori / Tachi-dori - Wado or otherwise.
Nothing too deep.

Re: Interesting demo from John Wicks sensei
For comparison sake, I saw this recently so thought I'd share.
I don't know much about Nakamura Ha Takeda Ryu, but this Muto-dori was good to watch I think.
