Okay, here's the translated version of the transcript, focusing on clarity, accuracy, and instructional value:

Kihon: Gedan Barai (Lower Level Block)

This short clip will explain the gedan barai technique. The goal is to properly use the hips to generate power, and not just block with the arm.

Many people, when they block, move their hips backwards. This is incorrect. The hips should be engaged in every karate technique.

When executing the gedan barai on the right side, the power originates from the hips moving in that direction. This generates upwards power.

Some karate styles, or some practitioners, move the hips in the opposite direction. While this may feel strong, you’ll have more power when the hips are straight.

The key is to be consciously aware of how you are generating power. We need to generate power from the hips, not just the arm. We need power to move.

Important: Blocking only with your arm (without hip engagement) is not effective. You will be easily moved or shaken off balance.

To generate power, you need to open up the hips and move them effectively. You will immediately feel the difference. Maintain a firm stance and execute the technique quickly.

Thank you for watching this short clip on gedan barai.
