A tale of two Sensei

Inspiration is an important aspect of training, as is discipline and repetition of fundamentals etc. Our host shares some of his personal sources of inspiration in the form of different Sensei and individuals who have positively impacted his journey thus far. Today he presents two very different Sensei, both of whom never crossed paths but still inspire a deep connection to Martial Arts as both a creative and progressive practice, whilst staying firmly rooted in the tradition and custom of their chosen styles. Sal Belahi Sensei, a practitioner who's personal approach embodies the idea of embracing modern scientific training practises and modes of moving from the core, embracing mobility and utility as goals with a healthy sense of experimentation and "play" to strengthen his approach to Karate & Kobudo. follow on Instagram and Youtube: Steel Mace Karate Teruo Chinen Sensei, Okinawan Goju Ryu Karate Master, learning from the source and spreading the style across the globe whilst creating his very distinctive interpretation of Goju Ryu over the many decades until his passing in 2015. His almost mathematical precision and ability was added to by his creative approach to his own training and teaching, and in turn set a bar of quality for the rest to live up to.
