Tatsuo Suzuki Kata Pinan Nidan Karate Wado Ryu (Although the second of the Wado Ryu Katas this is often taught first). Video Lift. Why did I post this? Why not! There are others but without sound for some reason, this one includes the slow motion and narrative also. Also I won a competition performing this very Kata (Wyndley Lesiure Centre, Sutton Coldfield - about 1992ish).

  • Pleas Read! Good vid! you really helped me! Today i got a Performance to do Pinan Nidan,Pinan Shodan & Pinan Sandan! I hope i get Gold!=)

  • Note that the first movement is a tettsu uke (hammer block) done from mahanmi-no-neko-dachi, translated literally "half body cat stance." This is different from neko-dachi or your normal cat stance assumed towards the end of the kata. This is how Otsuka, the founder of Wado-Ryu, taught it.

  • thanks this helped me out for my grading i wasn't sure about the end of it but now i know i am right thank you

  • @MrSargeantDeath Pinan Nidan is the Yellow Belt kata

  • good luck man

  • i learned this white belt

  • In my karate class this is exactly the same except the first move is a catstance and a hammer block. I need this kata to get my third belt (orange)
