Written Summary:
The thrust of the information
in this tape by Mr. Morris is that karate as taught in commercial dojos is not "
real karate ". The forms or katas that are taught have lost the real essence
of what they are about. Mr. Morris, in this video, attempts to show and explain exactly
what he is talking about as he shows pressure point strikes and techniques that are
in certain katas but are never obvious to the untrained eye.
The way Mr.
Morris punishes the ukes in this video is quite astounding because of they way they
wobble, pass out, make strange gurgling sounds and other bizarre physical manifestations
when the are hit. This video goes into more detail on how to hit these points on
the human body than in previous tapes that I have seen by Mr. Morris.
Mr Morris
is very fast, very powerful, and yet very controlled. He is inflicting the exact
amount of pain on his uke's that he intends to. The man must have an extremely high
level of skill to " hurt to that degree " with such precision.
I
have said before, that using pressure points in a combative situation requires a
high level of martial arts skill. I know that it can be done. I just don't know if
it can be done very well from studying a video. If this material is of interest to
a viewer, I would suggest he buy and study the videos by Mr. Morris, then seek qualified
hands on instruction in this type of art, in order to obtain maximum benefit from
this kind of fighting method. Once mastered, and even incorporated into another base
art, this could be a real " lean, mean fighting machine " of a martial
arts system.
