Naka was a student of Tsuyama when he was in Takushoku university karate club.

interesting. do you know why Naka sensei is in the video?

It's JKF video, not shotokan video. Tsuyama sensei was a technical chief of JKF.

Location is not set in stone. Jodan is generally the face, not necessarily directly at the nose, and chuu-dan is generally the upper body (though 'optimally' it would be at the solar-plexus/lower rib cage).Camera angles do play tricks though.

As mentioned in another reply about your opponent being the same height as you, when standing straight up (hei-ko dachi stance), jo-dan and chuu-dan are where you would expect. However, notice as they lunge forward into a longer, forward stance (zen-kutsu dachi), the body's height is lower compared to a standing opponent. You must punch higher for chuu-dan from your position to make contact with your opponents upper abdomen (solar-plexus).This video is pretty awesome. Some serious rock stars.

si se disfruta viendo y a la vez poder apreciar diferentes puntos de vista sobre un mismo tema, asi se puede aprender un poco mas como mejorar la tecnica basica que nunca esta de mas seguir entrenando, me imagino que para escribir eso usted no ha practicado artes marciales y si fue así no le tuvistes cariño, una lastima la verdad ya que es una gran mundo el de las artes marciales que enseña mucho y da tambíen muchas cosas buenas a las personas que entrenan seriamente, un saludo

this is an interesting video: we've got Naka sensei, who JKA, and Morooka Nao senshuu, who is not JKA-maybe Wado-kai or Shito-kai, i can't remember. is this an open or mixed style dojo? or maybe Morooka does both styles?
