yes, totally agree. I have practiced 20 years in shorin ryu under an okinawan who has done it about 60 years, and this is always the way we train. Of course everyone has to test it when they are young, but if wisdom prevails, we can learn from our older sensei. gambatte!

I think its just a matter of being smart. Build slowly, and know your limitations. If you get hurt, take it easy on the injury until it heals etc. Based on your comment, I think you probably agree with this. Rome wasn't built in a day.

if you train right, your joints get stronger, tendons stronger, core stronger. but most people only hurt themselves.

"72!!! AT the time this filmed! SO, PLEASE... you much younger folks who complain about being to old to do this and that...take a lesson! Or Sensei will whup yo ass!"The health benefits from karate training are vastly overrated. I know people who are in their 80's and 90's and never did any training, and they are in perfect health. I also know of karateka's who are in their 40's - 60's who have all kinds of health problems. Some of them can barely walk.

Hi John,Love your videos in emptymindfilms! Especially Tai Chi which I have been doing for 8 years now and I'm still only a beginner! This video of Sensei Kanazawa is a blast from the past! I got my first Karate grades with him in Cork, Ireland over 20 years ago!! Love the martial arts videos. Thanks. LIAM
