Some VERY familiar looking Wado Ryu Karate

October 8, 2009

Tatsuo Suzuki Sensei (8th Dan Wado Ryu Karate) adorns the front of the new Blitz Catalogue. Check out this video of him. I notice some extremely familiar techniques. Not too bad for an 81 yr old!!!

  1. Very nice to see!
    It goes to show that a lot of japanese martial arts share the same root.
    The knife section in particular is very reminiscent of Tomiki Aikido.

  2. I had the pleasure of teaching Aikido on a course that Tatsuo Suzuki was teaching on a few years ago. He showed kote gaeshi a variation of gyaku aigamae ate lots of taisabaki. A true master..
