Check on What Funokoshi did with Pinan Shodan and Pinan Nidan, then come back to me. Granted, Funokoshi is NOT the founder of Shu Do Kan, but IS the founder of Shoto Kan. Itosu seems to have kept things the way they started.

claws61821, I would suggest you check with Sensei Mack in Yakima Washington on whether or not this is Pinan Shodan. Also do a little research.

Also, in your forward stances, you need to lock your back leg and turn your back foot forward - your feet should form the base of a scalene triangle.

This is not Pinan Shodan. This is Pinan Nidan, and an incomplete sequence at that. I may be a few years out of practice, but I clearly remember at least that much. Please do not mislead our fellow Shudokan karateka.
this pinyan nidan or heian nidan

@hammondb333 This is Pinan Shodan in the Shu Do Kan system. Shotokan may have it named Heian Nidan, as Funokoshi switched Shodan and nidan around years ago when he was teaching to children as he felt that the original Nidan (the one I have performed here) was easier for them to learn. ;) So you may have learned it (or one very similar) as Heian Nidan.

Which reminds me, Shu Do Kan was begun by Toyama, who trained under Itosu alongside Funokoshi for a short period. Toyama continued to train under Itosu long after Funokoshi left.

McDojos always want to show off the worthless trophies they give to their students.

@mrthebillman That dojo was closed about 2 years ago. And if you look at my latest video, you will see that I am FAR from a McDojo artist.

Also, this is the entire kata as taught to me many years ago. If you search pinan shodan and pinan nidan, you will find MANY versions which are very similar to this one. Some longer, some shorter. Remember, there is no ONE WAY.
