The Standards of Sanchin Kata – Posture & Alignment
In Goju Ryu Karate, posture and alignment in Sanchin Kata are more than just standing correctly—they create the framework for power, balance, and structural integrity.
In this video, we break down the mechanics of posture, showing how spinal alignment, hip positioning, and head placement contribute to a stable yet dynamic stance.
You'll learn how adjusting the lumbar and cervical spine, keeping the hips and torso square to the frontal plane, and aligning the head, shoulders, and tanden create a posture that is both rooted and adaptable. We'll also explore how posture supports power generation, movement efficiency, and technique execution throughout Goju Ryu Karate.
This is part of The Standards of Sanchin Kata series, where we explore how posture and alignment connect with other critical elements: grounding, breathing, and the chain of engagement.
Key Topics Covered:
Spinal alignment – How to achieve an upright yet natural posture
The role of the tanden in dividing and balancing the body
Maintaining frontal plane alignment for stability and control
Posture’s role in power generation and movement efficiency
