All these people are members of Mr. Oyata's Assoc.
There is a list here:

The Polish Website I posted has a former alternate for the Polish Olympic Judo Team as the uke for Mr. Oyata.

Some of this stuff is truly remarkable. Mr. Rousellot, you have been honored beyond belief to be able to train with Mr. Oyata.

:asian:

Thanks for sharing and thanks for bringing your experience to the board.

upnorthkyosa Thanks. I do like what he teaches.
However, the mpegs only show a fraction of what he teaches and you will hardly ever see his “good secret stuff” ;) on mpeg or video.

I have seen videos of Mr Oyata KOing people. I think that they were produced in 1985.

peace!

Are there clips on the "net?

[Fbettincourt]

I don't think so. I had them on video. I have moved several times, I will see if I can track the tape down and post the name of the video.

[ppko]

That would be nice

I found the tape that I was thinking about. It has been on my mind for days. My father had a vast collection of books and tapes. Luckily my mother had not disposed of them.

The video appears to have been taken in 1982 or so, that is what the label says. Not great quality, but the information looks interesting. Mr. Oyata is wearing what looks like a gold belt. His attackers are attacking less than 50% speed, while Mr Oyata appears to be attacking quickly and hard. I know that this statement will cause some uproar by you know who, but it directly contrasts earlier threads and posts by him. I am going to see if I can have the tape transferred to a media that will not only preserve it, but allow me to upload some tech's for people to see. Mr. Oyata is definately a master at what he does, but make no mistake, he pulls no punches while his attacker appears to.

Peace!

WOW! A gold belt! I think it only has a gold stripe actaully.



This has been pretty much the "official unifom" since the mid 1990's.

i dont understand the big deal about what belt the man wore......it doesnt make a hill o' beans difference to his martial arts.
sounds like a bunch of sour grapes to me......someone just wants to prove another someone wrong.

[TaiChiTJ]

Thanks for these clips. My tai chi chuan and self defense teacher, Willie Lim studied Oyata's stuff for awhile, went to a few of his camps, and he says he is one of the best Karate men in the states. He has a few old videos of him but I think he would really appreciate seeing these so I will email him the link.


Thanks Again.

sounds like a bunch of sour grapes to me......someone just wants to prove another someone wrong. I don't understand it either. I mentioned in some other thread about a month ago that in Mr. Oyata’s Assoc. we all wear the same colored belt now and have done so for some time. Then one particular person got his panties in a wad and said “I saw him wear a gold belt, I saw him wear a gold belt, I saw him wear a gold belt”……B.F.D. :rolleyes: The simple fact is I never said he didn’t wear one. You might notice that same troll has hardly ever posted anywhere else on MT except where I post and his posts usually have nothing to do with the topic at hand and when he by chance posts on topic it always has some sort of meager attempt to discredit me or say how sorry they feel for me….. :rolleyes: .

I have heard of Willie Lim from a former student of his (at least I think he was)….a guy buy the name of Sean Barkes from Lincoln in UK. I met Sean while he was in Japan and then introduced him to a very good school for TCM here. He then went back to the UK and became a licensed TCM practitioner.

[TaiChiTJ]

That could very well be, as Willie makes a trip or two every year to the U.K and does seminars. I think he's due to for another one the last week of March.

I do agree Mr Oyata is an amazing Man.

I have a full set (13) Videos, In his videos he shows the kata and some of the Bunkai. In addition I have been blessed to have been able to tain with Mr Logue and Renshi Shull and have gotten to see some of thier private collection of Oyata videos. Truly a great art and a privledge to be associated with.

Thanks

San I have seen and felt Mr. Oyata do some pretty amazing stuff....(it was effective no matter what color belt he had on ;) ). Before I met him I thought kick boxing was “it” and karate was a joke….Mr. Oyata actually made me a “believer” in “old style” Karate.

The 13 video set is a good start.

Mr. Logue and Mr. Shull are two gentlemen that really know their stuff. They are both good at all aspects of the art from tuite, bogu and kobudo. If I were you and interested in Okinawan arts I would train with them as often as possible.



A Bogu helmet of Mr. Logue’s……notice the dented bars…..those came from punches.

Actually I only said, "I thought he wore a gold belt." You are the one that had a problem with that.

The panties line was out of line, especially since I wear boxers. Mr. Rousellot, you must have been thinking of someone else or rummaging through your underwear drawer before coming up with that line. Real men wear boxers. I will not speak for you.

Peace!

A couple of questions. I train in a Korean art and some of your terms are unfamiliar.

1. Tuite - are these grasping or grappling techniques? Like jujutsu?
2. Bogu - ?
3. Kumite - ?
4. Kobudo - Is this the practice of Budo?

Thanks, in advance...

upnorthkyosa Sorry about that. The following are rough translations.
1) Tuite = grappling techniques
2) Bogu = (lit. protective gear) Sparring using gloves and helmets like the one above.

3)Kumite = Sparring

4)Kobudo = old style weapons like staff, sai, and so on.


Here is a small list of terms we use:
