Here is a good shotokan karate training combination, comprising of basic strikes from shizentai or yoi dachi (natural stance). In this exercise Marcus is using the basic shotokan karate moves, chokuu zuki (straight punch), teisho uchi (palm heel strike), heito uchi (ridge hand strike), shuto uchi (knife hand strike), tettsui uchi (bottom fist strike) and uraken uchi (back fist strike).
Tips
1. Always try and use your legs and hips when striking.
2. Try and keep relaxed in between the strikes.
3. Have an explosive start at the beginning.
4. Make sure you have a strong hikite (pulling arm).
5. This is a good coordination exercise also, so ensure your hikite is in a good fist when pulled back after the open handed strikes.
6. Breathe naturally
7. Heito uchi (ridge hand strike) can be a large circular motion or a more direct strike with a sharp circular movement just in the final 15% of the strike (as Marcus shows in the video)
