I know nothing of this Kata but I really like and can relate to the movements. The application is really original and look very feasible in a real life situation.
Asai sensei is a real fighter ,he Karate is inspiring, but this is the first time i see this Kata, does any one knows any thing about it?? I saw Asai once in Amman and I noteced that he likes to come up with his own seqeuances , is it one of it??
I've seen several of these videos of Asai sensei now (both traditional shotokan kata and his own) on YouTube. Does anyone know where they come from? I'd love to get a set of all the videos if they can be found anywhere.
Yes, and upon the start of the tsuki when the punch is in chamber the pecs are tight. The punch or technique is thrown quickly and the koshi (hips or core strength) rotates and the kime comes as you hit through your target.

Maybe i am wrong but there seem to be lots of Wing Tsun elements in this Kata.

Hi everyone,
I've seen several of these videos of Asai sensei now (both traditional shotokan kata and his own) on YouTube. Does anyone know where they come from? I'd love to get a set of all the videos if they can be found anywhere.
Thanks!

You're supposed to be relaxed when doing kata. Your kime or focus comes at the end of the technique as it strikes your opponent.

Question for you...do you drop and tense your lats when striking????

Yes, and upon the start of the tsuki when the punch is in chamber the pecs are tight. The punch or technique is thrown quickly and the koshi (hips or core strength) rotates and the kime comes as you hit through your target.

the strike is before the ending.

Another amazing kata by Master Asai. Though I am currently only a seventh kyu in JKS it would be wonderful to learn this great kata in the future.
