Wow i have finally found a name for this kata, ive been practicing it for over a year now, and never got its full name, i hope this is the name of it.
If you understand the the Geography and the difference between Okinawan Language and Japanese,there are two small islands in the Est China Sea between Okinawa and the mainland. One is Hama Higa (Higa's Beach), and Tsuken, but the Okinawan pronunciation is "Chikin". Suna means "sand and Kakeru is the verb - to cover. Hence, Cover with Sand Kata from Chikin Island. So you stab the tip of the oar in the sand and flick it in the face of the oponent and attack! Who taught you this Kata?
That makes sense thank you for taking the time explaining the origins of this Kata. Katherine Loukopoulos taught me this Kata, and my teacher James Thompson helped me interpret it. We are from Bubishi-Do Organization.
I am a 6th Degree black belt student of TaekwonDo and was taught this form by a good friend but with the Bo some years ago and when he passed I had not studied it ling enough to get the basics down...
Most of my TaekwonDo class mates are dispersed all over the country and could not help me...
I am so happy to have found it performed by an excellent Instructor..
By the way am a Retired Marine Gunnery Sgt. that spent 10 years at Zukeran Okinawa.
Shapland Sensei is a real Kobudo Master. Regarding the Shinken Taira lineage of Kobudo from what I've seen around the country, there is no doubt he is the best in the U.S. and Canada.
Shapland Sensei, it was great to see you doing this kata. I had a very bad fall over a year ago and can't do any of my Isshinryu or Tesshinkan Kobudo yet.. trying hard to make my way back to being able to do kata again. Jackie G.
awesome love it.

Are you sure I thought SunaKake meant to hook the sand.
