Product Description
On this exciting DVD you will see Historic Footage of all of the Okinawa Kenpo kata performed by Master Odo himself, one of the world s top weapons masters. Plus a Bonus! Weapons Kumite! This unique DVD also presents the complete History of Okinawa Kenpo. Shigeru Nakamura (1892-1969) founded the style in 1955. Later Grand Master Seikichi Odo (1927-2002) was named Nakamura s successor and the head of the style. This system was known for its development of "Bogu Armor" for full contact sparring. Master Odo also added the weapons system to the Okinawa Kenpo style, which fully developed the system. This rare DVD documents the legacy of the Okinawa Kenpo system and Grand Master Seikichi Odo.

Excited, but a little disappointed
I was very happy to come across this video, as it is very hard to find videos of Odo Sensei doing kata, let alone the entire system. I am very glad that this dvd was put together as a wonderful tribute to a fantastic individual. I had many opportunities to train with Odo Sensei during my ten years in Hawai'i. The only thing that disappointed me was that it was made from a video someone made for themself of Odo Sensei doing kata both inside and outside his dojo in Agena, Okinawa sometime in the mid to late 80s. I have seen this video several times from a copy my instructor owned. Overall I am very excited for the future generations of Okinawa Kenpo (or as it is currently called Ryukyu Hon Kenpo Kobudo) students to be able to watch Odo Sensei performing kata and kobudo.
Interesting, but very poor video quality
While nice to see Master Odo in a video performing the katas, the overall quality of the video makes the DVD difficult to watch.
Awesome!!!
This is an awesome DVD. I really learned alot. I highly recommend this video.
