In January 1940, MISHOP conducted a survey of Okinawa and compiled the results of its research.
This research resulted in the production of the film "Ryukyu no Fuzumon" (Ryukyuan Customs).
The film includes scenes of apparatus training and kata practice by students at a teacher's school, and karate is narrated as "a unique martial art born from the soul of the Ryukyu people.
Kururunfa" is often composed of a series of multiple offensive and defensive techniques, such as "Hiji uke" to "Sokuto keri," "Sukui uke" and "Osae uke," "Mae keri" to "Hji ate," and so on.
The application of the kata is the technique of disengaging the opponent's arm when he is "hagai jime" from behind, skillfully releasing his powerful opponent's arm by dropping his body and elbow, and immediately locking it in the back of the head.
It is one of the representative kata of Goju-ryu and requires well-trained legs and backs because it incorporates a lot of "neko ashi tachi," a low posture with twisting and turning at the waist.
There are many ways to train the legs and hips, and it is also effective to continue practicing "站とう功," a martial arts qigong posture in which the legs and hips are kept in a low posture.
The first half of the exercise, in which both hands are alternately raised and lowered, is difficult to do because it requires a great deal of skill. The second half, in which the upper body is raised from a low posture by bending forward to scoop up the legs, is extremely difficult, but one must try to do it as quickly as possible.
