<Tuesday terminology>
Age uke
One of the most useful blocks to defend the head/face! 👍🏻
⁡
I got a lot of comments regarding my torso not being half body in my last video! It’s very common in Shotokan style to have the body in hanmi position, but in Shito-ryu which I practiced in the past, and Ryuei-ryu which I practice now our body is facing straight. Although the name of the blocks are the same, all styles are slightly different, which makes karate interesting! 😊👍🏻
⁡
Be sure to know both Japanese and English translation for all the blocks 😊

Disclaimer: This is how I would translate the Japanese terminology. If it is different from the translation at your dojo, be sure to learn the terminology you are taught at the dojo.
