Hanshi Patrick McCarthy part 3 of 3 "don't drink the coolaid"

In part 3 of 3, Hanshi McCarthy gives his toughts on the intersection of academia and research, his experiences at Shaolin, competitive & combative Karate, those who created and help shape the tradition, some of his favourite books, Olympic Taekwondo, HEMA and so much more, a deeply insightful and reflective conversation with someone who refused to drink the “coolade” and has at times kicked over the metaphorical tables of those who continue to sell it. Deep thanks to Hanshi Pattrick McCarthy for this deeply honest conversation.

"Pathfinders Way" Hanshi Patrick McCarthy part 1 of 3

To watch this interview: https://youtu.be/H53ex2WW7jo?si=h4OHk9xey5i6850i Hanshi Patrick McCarthy? Where to begin? This is part 1 of an incredible journey that continues to this day. I had an incredible conversation over a period of hours, he pulls no punches and he is passionately frank in his personal observations. But then, who could say he hasn't earned the right to articulate it? Pre-Internet, AI, Social Media meant getting bruised ribs and bloody knuckles, travelling in search of a personal truth, cultures, countries, languages, customs at a time when the world was a lot less accessible. He's run the gamut, more times than he probably cares to mention, changed minds and put a few long held illusions on blast along the way.

10 Speed Sensei

People sight Bruce Lee as there introduction to martial arts, not everyone but quite a few. I would have put myself in that category as well, but then I realised there was always a foundational memory that started it all. The one Sensei I would give anything for one more conversation with. My dear old Dad. Dedicated with love to Harry James Dawson RIP

Shai Hai Sensei: "Karate as a life tool." part 3 of 3

To learn more about our podcast: https://linktr.ee/Invisen Shai Hai Sensei has had the kind of Karate journey that would make an incredible movie. From growing up in survival mode and making life and death choices at an age when most were busy being care free children. To finding Martial Arts and following that path to a completely different country and culture to pursue his love of Karate, then travelling to Okinawa to seek permission to train with one of the most famous Karate Sensei in the world, a Sensei people refer to as an “Okinawan Superman.” After a time being accepted but having to prove his sincerity by taking off his black belt and beginning again, and coming to realise that the path was hard and many times discouraging, but continuing anyway. His story is inspiring, his deep respect for his Sensei and those who have guided his path is obvious, his humility is only matched by his skill and tenacity. He is many things a Husband, Father, a Sensei in his own right. He is also a critically acclaimed actor, much like everything he does he finds Uechi Ryu Karate has applications in more ways than Martial. This 3 part conversation is deep, wide ranging and to my mind inspirational. To view him in action at his recent 6th dan grading, please watch this excellent mini documentary from the Okinawa Spirit YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/bT2tm6RgVdc?si=V6zBoi56G48wI6r1 And to read his personal blog, referred to in the interview: http://shaihaibudo.blogspot.com/2023/05/esoteric-secrets-of-uechiryu-karate-do.html http://shaihaibudo.blogspot.com/ And to watch this interview: https://youtu.be/lj3-zFmFFhk
