Basic Karate Technique: Punches by Core

Hi, Warriors!
Your coach, Senpai Akiko here.
I want to go over basic Karate punching technique in this video.
Watch and practice as the video follows.

Main point is, USE YOUR CORE.
Powerful fast punches are generated from CORE.
Not your pecks, lats, chest muscles.
Even though I have been training over 25 years, I still try to improve. I am not perfect but that is the beauty of training.
Look for improvement every practice.

Be patient. Be consistent. Enjoy the art of Bushido.

Thanks for watching. See you next time!

Added Note: Sometimes, doing SLOWLY messes my brains. So some people noticed that I was using my hips wrongly. Actually, I was aware of that while I was shooting this video. I am NOT perfect. Okay? If you train Karate for many years, you know what I mean. When you try to teach others and doing it slowly, sometimes you do differently than you normally do. That was what happened while I was shooting this video. But if this video and the message I was delivering help some beginners or color belts (yellow, orange, level), I am happy about that. This is not meant to deliver to black belt level people. So I appreciate if you help me keep my channel positive and welcoming. Thank you.
