  • Very Good Sensei .Osu

  • Naihanchi Kata is considered a more advance kata than the Pinan. In several schools is actually taught after the pinan series. Chibana Sensei, student of Anko Itosu considered Naihanchi as the most important kata to develop strengh and power, specially in legs, therefore taught the 3 series before the 5 series of Pinan. Nowadays, several Shorin Ryu schools (included Shidokan) practice Naihanchi before Pinan. The kata in this video looks powerful but is not Shidokan at all

  • Sensei rei

  • The external approach might be due to the fact that Naihanchi was the beginning kata before the Pinan series was made. Actually in Motobu-ryu it still is the first kata.

  • it looks like the Shidokan-Version of Naihanchi.

  • Nice performance. He is using hard, external way to perform naihanchi. A different way. But, I like his performance

  • この人は、肉体を鍛えすぎて外側の筋肉に全体が引っ張られてる印­象を受ける。

    知花翁のナイファンチのように内側の発動で外形変化が出来てない­気がする。

  • 横山館長のナイファンチ初段ですね!おお、凄い!
