[daikento]

good bunkai, but yours differs from my bunkai in shukokai, good to see the variations!

@BushiWaazup I know multiple bunkai aplications for this kata... and al of them can be (or even have to be) executed slowly, its a slow move... i was not asking because i didn't know why, i was trying to make people question their teachings. question everything!

Some very interesting ideas here. However, I think Sensei Johnny G should have his training partner attack with 'real' punches from a 'realistic' range and not the standard oi-tsuki from so far away.

I think many of his principles will still work but he needs to test them in a more 'live' manner.

[titi067]

i think too

[FerdinandDijoux]

exellent quelle technique!!!

il y a du travail

[titi067]

merci cousin lol

[Jarno1510]

if this first move is so slow in the kata, why should the appliction be so fast? it is a slow move even when you use it in real life...

I think I've seen about 30 different Bunkai for this first set of movements in 'heian/pinan' Yondan. It is amazing how different they all are and always makes you wonder who is right.

[ShinkeijiIwa]

In my humble opinion, I think they are all "right". I think that the most important thing, is that there are still people that are actually thinking, instead of just repeating the kata without questionning what the moves mean.

[Gwisss]

I agree with you that in the position where we do not know the answer, any educated guess is good enough. They are all seemingly 'right', however, the artist who produced that kata did so with a series of movements that symbolized specific movements, and my curiosity lies in what is the right bunkai.

[ShinkeijiIwa]

As yes, I see what you mean, and I completely agree with you. It would be interesting to know the "original" (which perhaps may be a better word than "real") meanings of the movements. Do you know if this kata was created by Funakoshi, or was it taken from of his Okinawan forms?

[Gwisss]

Were they not Katas created from the Okinawan forms? I do not know the origins of each Heian Kata... Something I wish to figure out.

[kempobrad]

Funakoshi learned them from Anko Itosu. most people credit Itosu for creating the pinan series, but some also credit Soken Matsumura with creating them. some believe they are shorter versions/variants of an older kata called 'channan' i believe.

[CaptainLeRoy158]

Very nice explanation of the first move. Would have liked to have seen a couple of more moves of the Kata explained. The student took quite a beating here

[giuseppet1978]

this is the karate that I love. this is the traditional karate.

[carlfath]

Excellent, this is real Bunkai.

Excellent, thank you.
