Description: The Pinan series (pronounced "pin-yan" or "pin-an") is a series of five empty hand forms (kata), originated in Okinawa, now taught in many karate styles. The Pinan kata were adapted by Anko Itosu from more ancient kata such as Kusanku and Gojushiho into forms suitable for teaching the gross body movement skills of karate to young students. When Gichin Funakoshi brought karate to Japan, he renamed the kata to Heian, which is translated as "long peace."
