Watch your stances. Most of your kibas are shiko. That sets you up for less hip movement on the reverse punch.

One of the highlights of the kata is to show a lot of power when moving from the morote shuto/neko to the reverse punch.

Push your rear knee into the back of your front knee on your shadow stance.

Train hard.

You have the movements down pat...that is good! The advice is good here too...don't lift your feet, slide them along the ground with only the ball of the foot touching the floor--easy to do on hardwood like this. Also remember your breathing! Exhale on those strikes. And on your strikes, keep relaxed throughout the technique and tense at the very end...think whiplash. The amount of time you have spent practicing shows in your kata. Good job, keep at it. :) From a fellow Shuri karateka.

You should do your Mudra more slowly, also on the last step on the Mudra when you put your hand up and forward, you first bring your hands up to your face, THEN turn it, not just putting it up like that.

Your kibadachi's are too short, and when doing your punches jerk your hips for more power, and loosen up a bit, your too stiff, and one last thing, Wansu is the second kata, a yellow belt kata, Tykyoko each is the first, a yellow striped kata, but your good, just need more improvement ^^

bow with you're head up when you start the kata, then at the end bow with it down.

First off I would like to see you upload a video of you doing this kata. LOL Do you know anything about the person in the video?

[TheMatsukanDojo]

Pretty rough. I've been in a Shuri Karate student & instructor for 26 years and I can say with confidence that you need to slow down and "learn" the kata. You are doing little more than dancing....

[xxShaunWhitexx]

can u re upload that but do it slower

[spforces75]

the light can be better... but overall i like the kata...

[johndejac73]

too rigid loosen up, relax.

This is the begining kata of our system, take your time and look at your stances, then do it very slow . The hidden moves in the kata are very nice, you will find them when you are ready....or when you think about the kata when you do kumite (third level, with opponents). I wish you good luck, keep on training.
