Sensei Jason Gould of Boston's Emerald Necklace Martial Arts performs "Chatan Yara No Kon Sho," an Okinawan kobudo kata taught to him by Sensei Brian Ricci of the Zen Bei Butoku Kai International.
Osu, strong kime. I was lucky to learn this kata from Richard Kim at the 1988 ITKF Summer Camp in San Diego. Only some slight differences at the very end - understandable, because Master Kim taught several variations of the end combination.
@americandevil Our kata are very similar. You're right -- Sensei Kim often taught variations of kata. He made it hard to keep track!
