Mae Geri" Front kick. Fist of all we should know the meaning of this kick “Mae” means “Front” and “Geri” means “Kick”. So “Maegeri“ means “Front kick". Get into “Gedan barai” stance. 2 Begin by bringing your back knee up and forward. 3 Once your leg is up in the air, it's time for the kick. Use the ball of your foot to aim at. This is the "Striking surface" to kick the target. 4 Immediately snap the leg forward at your target. While rolling your hips forward. 5 Then get back to the starting position.

SOKUTO GERI or SIDE KICK. 8220;Yoko Geri” or “Sokuto” is a common kick we can see in all kicking martial arts. In wado karate we use the terminology “Sokuto” instead of “Yoko Geri”. So what is the difference between sokuto and yokogeri? 8220;Yoko Geri”. When you use the Mae geri on the side ways we can call this yoko geri. Yoko means “Side” in Japanese terminology, Geri means “Kick”. So we can say the above technique as yoko geri because we use to kick the side way. Peace and harmony,.

These three expressions describe three kinds of timing for attack and counter attack. Nagasu, Inasu, Noru and Irimi. Nagasu is parrying, or moving with the attack, to evade a blow, often while counte...

8220;Closed eyes Mokuso”. Take the seiza position first. See the above picture. This kind of meditation is when you put a focal point (point) in your mind to prevent you becoming distracted by such things as how much your feet hurt, voices outside or cars going by. As you breathe deeply, try to visualize an object such as a fruit, divine light, heartbeat, breath or a palm. It must be something simple, if you chose a palm, then it should simply be palm. Not focus the lines on it. Just a plain palm. Unfort...
