Funakoshi Karate Hojo Undo


Some examples of supplementary training in Master Gichin Funakoshi's karate, including iron-body methods such as the makiwara (machiwara), striking gravel with the finger-tips, hitting yourself with your arms and hands as well as with bamboo, conditioning the toes, applying dit da jow (medicinal "fall-hit wine"), and using a stone rolling-pin, and training with testu-sashi (iron kettle-bells in place of padlocks), tiger-style press-ups, and movement and stance training.
