nijushiho

[sk8erboyz51]

nijushiho comes from the shrin ryu kata ni sei shi

[PiollaPUGNAX]

Nakayama Sensei said that Asai Sensei was THE ONLY ONE who could perform Nijushiho correctly. That means a lot! Who am I to disagree? Timing, form, stances, kime, fluidity... everything as should be! I´m trying to do it for 30 years... still not there.

Hmm.. This is excellent, no question, but I learned some parts a little different from my sensei. Relatively small things but still.. Maybe this is just the old style?

Ossu.

@orel1996 This is THE way to do this kata imho.

Interesting, different timing than I've seen before. I wish I could see Okazaki Sensei perform it and compare, apparently this is his favorite kata. Thanks for the video.

Thanks for the comments. Thats actually Master ASAI doing that kata. I believe if you look around in YouTube, you will find him perfomring this kata in the 1960's in BW, and he does it the same way. No theatrics.

la mejor kata hecha por uno de los mejores karatekas XD

[xixa100]

Quite funny: the more recent the kata, the more theatralic they become.

i dont believe nijushiho is new. in fact i'm pretty sure it's an old chinese form
