Thank you Sensei for posting this kata. I learned this form at a Kobudo clinic 20 years ago. Within a few years I had forgotten how to do it. Finding this video was like finding something lost a long time ago. Tom, age 50, Cleveland, Ohio
This is not Chikin Shitahaku no sai kata. It is Tsuken Shitahaku no Sai. I have practiced both kata and Sai since 1974 in Japan. I assume the person posting this kata had gotten the names confused which is an honest mistake. Great kata performance however and I admire his skill greatly. Thank you for posting.
Nice!!! Clean execution.

chikin and tsuken similar words. chikin this Okinawan dialect. I have been studying Japanese for 20 years.
That's what I thought too.
Too hard, roughness, flexibility are the way.
