Re: Re: Re: This is Not Gichin Funakoshi footage

You're right, my apologies. I found the links at the bottom of the page, and those films are definately Funakoshi Gichin. It's remarkable how much these two kata (Tekki San wouldn't load) have changed from that time (1914) to the first JKA film series (1962), to modern day JKA versions of these kata, which really don't have a lot of movements that are changable. One wonders if Funakoshi himself would have passed a modern rank examination using his original versions of the kata.

Correction: Tekki Sho is performed by M. Sugiura; Tekki Ni by H. Shirai; Nakayama is doing Tekki San.
