Uechi-ryu Karate 6th-dan Grading - Shai Hai @ Kiyohide Shinjo Dojo, Okinawa
Shai Hai takes his 6th-dan black belt grading in Uechi-ryu Karate at the Kiyohide Shinjo Dojo in Yomitan, Okinawa.
Examiners were Kiyohide Shinjo, Narihiro Shinjo, and Yoshimitsu Matsusaki all icons of Okinawan Karate.
In Uechi-ryu karate, for 6th-dan there is no kumite component, but Shai Hai had to perform the three key kata of the style.
After the grading I had the opportunity to chat with Kiyohide Shinjo about Series Three of SENSEI: Masters of Okinawan Karate. I'm excited about the possibility of interviewing Shinjo Sensei later this year.

Excellent Interview 🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥
lol
Incredible insight into karate here. Thanks so much for sharing this
A true master of Karate! I had the honour to be in his classes around the world!
Gratz Sensei !
ถ้าคุณใกล้จะเสียชีวิตแล้วยกมันให้ผมนะครับผมจะดูแลมันอย่างดีครับ❤
They went easy on him for money and funding
Brilliant documentary
Congratulation Sensei Shai
Thank you very much for your teachings.
Sensei konbanwa, I want to learn karate. Karate Suki desu.
Sorry but you come across as a weak man , we should pray that you don’t get into a fight with a strong man that know how to fight.
Sensey accepts given Dan test from his adept. Without kimono, this is terrible. This is disrespectful to the traditions of the way busido% osss
My friend the uniforms are not kimono. Kimono is for women and for fashion. The uniforms you see are called gi. Also the Japanese word for teacher is sensei not sensey. Also I don't see an issue with a senior instructor coming in wearing a nice shirt and pants. It's most likely his day off and he was asked to come in to help grade
That’s the real Mr Miyagi
Sensei❤, Ich habe Mist gebaut - der schwarze Drache 🐲
Danke Sensei ❤, daß ich mich Dir anvertrauen durfte, wir haben einen weiten Weg vor uns, Eure Heiligkeit ❤ der Dalai Lama muss zwingend wieder nach Tibet. Die Zeit drängt ! Du hast meine vollste Unterstützung, der schwarze Drache 🐲
Ich hoffe auf die Unterstützung der Shaolin Klöster und Schulen in China. Wir müssen einen Weg finden, die tibetische Kultur steht auf dem Spiel, wenn es nicht so ernst wäre, könnte man darüber lachen. Die Lage ist wirklich prikaer. Sensei Ich habe Mist gebaut, der schwarze Drache 🐲
Ich möchte mich mit einer großen Bitte an Sie wenden. Ich habe einen großen Fehler begangen. Ich habe einen kurzen Moment nicht aufgepasst. Tibet wurde von der Volksrepublik China besetzt und Eure Heiligkeit ❤ der Dalai Lama lebt schon sehr lange im Exil in Indien 🇮🇳. Die tibetische Kultur mit dem budistischen Oberhaupt steht vor dem Untergang. Ich habe mich schon an die Budistischen Mönche in China gewand. China und Japan haben einen gemeinsamen kulturellen Ursprung und sind praktisch Brüder im Geiste. Ich weiß nicht wie ich diesen Fehler wieder gut machen kann, ich Bitte um Ihre Unterstützung BITTE 🙏 ❤🇯🇵 der schwarze Drache🐉 aus 🇩🇪
Thanks for sharing this impressive documentation and congrats to your effort and achievement. Never give up!
So gheyyyy 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Hai! Excellent!!

This man was probably borne in 1941, he was about 12 years old when I was station in Kadena AFB in Okinawa in 1953-1955. I wonder if he ever knew the following Judo and Karate Masters during those days. Mr. Yamakawa - Chief of Police in Naha and Mr. Ohama - Assistant Chief of Police, they started me in Judo then Mr. Tomasito - Judo Trainer of the police, Mr. Miyasato - Karate Trainer of the police trained me with their police officers during the weekends. I was the only American that received that privilege in those days because Mr. Yamakawa and Mr. Ohama took a liking to me being that I was the same height as them and very strong in those days, I was 22 years old, also I was very fast and quick to learn their Katas and movements. I trained with their police for a while during the weekends. It was tremendous and I learned the art of "maim or kill", which gave me knowledge of the weak points in a human's body and how to attack those points. It was scary but very interesting to learn. I am 93 years old today and I still do some Kata exercises in the mornings to keep fit and pray I never have to use what I learned on anybody. Those four gentlemen were the best in Okinawa in those years, I hope somebody remember them for I believe they might not be alive today because of their age.
Met him a couple months back. Sat and had a nice chat with him. Really nice guy with a wealth of knowledge
Desde San Luis Potosí México saludoooo oss!
Nice

Great! Published by the national Press. (Publicado por la prensa nacional): ua-cam.com/video/OgYnCHQI9QY/v-deo.htmlsi=8a23BwOG4t3yb8DS
OOH 6th my Teacher Was in his 40's to but he Was 5ith Dan 25 Year's Ago ../Bow
Okinawan karate shares similarities with south east asian martial art. Looks more to silat.
Awesome! Thank you Master!
If you re 59yrs old can begin karate
Wow, he moves very well
Excellent skill. Much respect. Also, I appreciate the sanshin in the background.
There is an example of a sensei living his best life!
Alors qu avec un bon 357 …
My first martial arts instructor. He's a wonderful guy and a martial arts legend. Ueichi Ryu is the real deal.
I hope to see a shorei-kan Goju Ryu master on here one day
Master Hiagonna My friend! Incredible Karate Master!
Vive ka choucroute

great experience, great Sensei, great Shai. thank you for sharing
I like this guy .Morales Sensei is very Humble .
amazing story. just like the story of the agerman shaolin monk...very inspired. stay focused all the time
😂😂😂😂
I’m just curious how he gets graded as a 10th Dan or grandmaster and kiyohide Shinjo is only 9th Dan .? This a genuine question I have no knowledge of karate or any of these masters other than watching a couple videos in the past couple days, this is not about being a critic or rude , im genuinely interested in how it works. Thanks
Excelente su explicación, permitame felicitarle y desearle crecimiento, larga vida y felicidad
that old gentleman kick is actually hurt as hell, that is not a random kick
Le meilleur karatéka du monde.
